Writing: I enjoyed the 12 Short Stories in 12 Months challenge so much that I’m doing it again in 2026.

Sewing/Wardrobe: No sewing lately! I’ve lost my sewjo, as they say. I’m hoping to make a few practical things while the weather is cold, but I’m not going to push myself.

Day Job: January is here, and that means I’m swimming in paid work. It’s the busiest month of my day job, and pretty much everything else goes on hold until February.

Everything Else: I’m still missing some website graphics on the new site, but I’ve restored them on all of the 2025 newsletter archive pages so far. I didn’t bother making any resolutions this year, and I’m just trying to rest enough while work is so overwhelming.
