Well, it’s another new year … and a new decade.

What’s been notable about this year and decade for you?

There have been a number of significant things for me …

• Thanks to Google, midrange.com became self sufficient.
• I learned a lot of new technology that I like …
  • Java
  • Eclipse
  • PHP
  • Significantly more IBM i API’s
  • Software internationalization
• I was honored by my friends and colleagues
• I lost a fuzzy friend (Stuey)
• I gained a fuzzy friend
• Bought a house
• Discovered that parents can be good friends too
• Dealt with family health issues that made me far more aware of my own mortality … and that of people I love.
• Reconnected with some good friends
• Lost track of some friends
• Discovered that traveling to another country, and visiting friends on the way, is well worth the effort

There’s probably a lot more … I’ll be updating this post as I think of stuff.

If I don’t see you personally … have a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR.
