It's Time To Boot 2016 To The Curb

TO THE CURB.  You know what I'm talking about.  We're done here.  I genuinely hope that 2017 (and '18, '19' & '20) doesn't leave us pining for the good ol' days of 2016.  I know I have some exciting things ahead in 2017 for me, I hope you have some exciting things to look forward to in 2017 as well.

As the year ends, I have my year end reflections and year ahead goal setting stuff that I like to do.  2016 was a strange year, so it should be interesting to work on the reflections.  I am still in the midst of the changes that started in 2016, and anticipate more changes in 2017.  It's weird to feel so in the midst of things while I'm trying to wrap up the year and put it to bed.  I'm ready, so ready, but... there are some things that are still dancing around wearing lampshades that I can't put to bed just yet!  And so it will be.  

I hope the final couple weeks of the year have been treating you kindly, fortifying you for the coming year.  

Errata from last week's newsletter: Hanukah has *eight* days, not seven. I knew that and it still slipped through. <facepalm>

With that may your hogmanay & your new year be fabulously wonderful & I'll see you in 2017!  Thank you for joining me in 2016! <3
 

May you go forth under the strength of heaven, under the light of sun, under the radiance of moon;
May you go forth with the splendor of fire, with the speed of lightning, with the swiftness of wind;
May you go forth supported by the depth of sea, by the stability of earth, by the firmness of rock;
May you be surrounded and encircled, with the protection of the nine elements.
