2016 Year in Review

I really prefer doing this from home, but my Ipad won't post things right now. I need to reinstall the app and see if that works, but I haven't had time. 2016 flew by, but it was a bad year. I had 8 deaths to deal with this year. Way too many. I got a lot of reading done but very little art. In 2017, I am going to try to reverse those. I really want to do more art. There will be lots of crocheting happening since Jonas and Keri told us on Christmas Eve they are having a little one on July 4th. Very exciting news.

Here is my year in review:

Books - I read 168 books. It totaled 58921 pages, the shortest was 49 pages "Pumpkin Pied" by Karen MacInerney and the longest "The Fiery Cross" by Diana Gabaldon. The average length was 371 pages.
Movies - I only saw 20 movies. I guess my favorite was London Has Fallen. My biggest disappointment was LaLa Land.
Classes - I enjoyed all my classes this year. 4 basket and 1 wet felting.
Trips - We went on a wonderful cruise out of Miami in April, I had the quilt retreat in September, the Georgia game with Jonas and our girls trip to Washington, D.C.
Plays - 19 this year. The best was The Book of Mormon, which I saw twice, the worse "Lesson Before Dying. Lots of good broadway plays this year.
Concerts - we only saw 5, but they were all good. The 5th Dimension, Black Jacket Symphony Journey, Styx, Hot Sardines and Kasey Musgrave.

So there it is the year in review. My word for 2016 was discipline and I did pretty good being disciplined.

For 2017 my word is going to be Art. I need more creativity in my life.
