For a long time, my New Year’s Eve tradition has been to compile a list of my personal ten best and worst of the year.
This year’s best includes
- my son Aaron (top of the list for the 22nd year in a row!),
- my 12/27 wedding to Michael,
- my friends,
- my therapy groups (which include sharing and mindfulness exercises),
- blogging,
- the cats, and
- Michael’s cooking.
This year’s worst includes
Do you see any evidence of my best and worst in these new end-of-year photos?
I also put musician Jacob Collier on my personal best list for 2019 and it’s the best that I’ll be seeing him perform live in 2020!
It’s best to start planning for the best of 2020 and not to worry about a thing.
What’s your personal best and worst of 2019?
The best way for me to end this post is to express gratitude to all who have supported me through another year of daily blogging, including YOU!
Happy New Year!
Love,
Ann
The best is always to see your smiling face appreciating life!
You’re the best, Val! ❤
Thanks for sharing so much of the best, Ann, and helping us all figure out how to cope with so much or our worsts. Happy New Year to you, Michael and Aaron!
I wish a best possible year for you and yours, Mark!
And to you and Michael and Aaron as well, Ann!
I see only the best here!
I love how you see only the best, beth.
Happy New Year to all of you, Ann 😀
Happy New Year, Irene!!
Michael, Michael’s cooking, Aaron and music all seem like antidotes to worry and dread. 🙂
Thank you for so many great comments, Maureen, and this is one of the best!
On New Year’s Eve, Oscar and Harley are eagerly waiting!
Now I am eagerly waiting for your next comment, Maria!
THE WEDDING PICTURES!!! Thank you for posting all those lovely pictures. I don’t have a best and worst list but your wedding pictures made today the best for me. And I really like your officiant’s yellow shoes!! Happy new year Ann and wishes for more love, lots of music, and all those things that you love.
Happy New Year to one of those I love, Eleanor.
Your wedding to Michael is understandably a highlight of your year–both Michael and Aaron have been highlights of your year as long as they’ve been part of your life–but I hope your show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival is also a highlight of your year.
It is and so are you, Chris!
I like your best and worst lists. Our worst lists are pretty much the same, and our bests both include cooking, friends and blogging. Your wedding pictures are fabulous. Best wishes for a new year with less worry and dread and more good things!
Happy New Year, Lisa, and thanks for being the best!
I try always to see only the best in everyone. May you, and all those you love, enjoy the best of everything in 2020.
Seeing the best in everyone is the best, my friend. Happy New Year, Peter!
Happy New Year!!
The best of new years to you!!
