It’s lights out and away we go into 2026! Looking back on 2025, I have no idea how we ended up here with a banana at the table and counting down to the first Grand Prix of 2026. That’s life, I suppose.

It’s possible all I did in 2024 was eat all the delicious things. As I reflect in my New Year post, we’ll see if that’s actually true or not.

I’m going to miss seeing Kakashi every day, but Otto banging away at the typewriter is necessary motivation for 2024! Maybe I will find a Kakashi sticker for inside my planner…

Kakashi Hatake is here to make sure 2023 is a good year…otherwise, we’re going to chidori the heck out of it…

Happy Year of the Tiger! 2021 wasn’t too bad, but what does 2022 have in store?

A brief look back, a shake of the head, then a look ahead in the hopes that 2021 has some goodness in store for us.

Wait, what? How did we get to 2020 so quickly? Well, here we are, so let’s do this thing!

I’ve never done New Years resolutions. I’ve always thought it unrealistic to set up some lofty goals that I should accomplish for the year just because I was feeling new and determined and positive for one day. I knew that setting those goals would just be setting myself up for failure because I’d start off with good intentions, then inevitably give up.
