A year. Quite a year, in fact. While I'm living life I forget that I'm slowly accomplishing things, but then I tally it all up and I see my progress. I always think I'm not doing enough, and I wonder why I'm so tired, not noticing that the reason I don't do more is that I'm already doing quite a bit. In addition to what you see below, I got a new voice teacher, was promoted to a new position at my day-job, and moved for the first time in a few years. Here's to 2020 being even crazier!
