It has been a long time since my last post.  Believe me, I’ve frequently thought about writing.  But something always seemed to come up.  No real excuse, I know.  It’s not as if this past year was particularly boring.  There were life events and challenges and triumphs and mundane activities.  All good fodder.  But somehow I just couldn’t get the umph to write.

But as I reflect on wrapping up yet another year and mentally review my lists of potential resolutions for 2014 (running a marathon is not in the cards), I have a renewed desire to get back in the habit.  And so, if that constitutes a New Year’s Resolution, so be it.
