Winding Down the Year

The CUESA office was sparsely occupied today, and those of us present have all been afflicted with various degrees of holiday illness. It was a quiet day, punctuated by Dexter's stream of phone conversations with vendors as they canceled their attendance at tomorrow's Market. Rain is in the forecast, and it's a holiday weekend, so the selling opportunities are doubly doomed.

This time last year, I had a huge amount of work ahead of me, laid out in three-week segments. Now, the upcoming year is a question mark. I can only hope for the opportunity to do good, challenging work; for the well-being of my family and loved ones; for even a modicum of peace, somewhere, somehow.

And I hope the same for you.
Cheers.
