Happy New Year! I realize I am a few days late, but I just really enjoyed my holiday break and couldn’t drag myself back into reality. So I decided to extend my break an extra week! Also, I was plagued by a monster cold and ongoing stomach bug, so I have basically been the laziest person alive the past two weeks. I thoroughly enjoyed the break from social media and life and chose to use the time to focus on my family and rest. The break provided a wonderful hiatus to allow myself the opportunity to truly think and contemplate the direction I want pearls on a string to head and ponder if I am pointed in the right direction.
I’ve been analyzing the posts from the past year and love learning more about you through them. I’m thrilled to see that my newest dabble in Alaska culture and small businesses are among your favorite posts to read. Honestly, they are also my favorite posts to research and write about! I’d love to hear more from you because you are the reason I am here. I want to know what topics are your favorite, what posts you don’t like, and any suggestions you may have. Without further ado, here are some of 2015’s highlights!
