Hello everyone, happy Winey Palooza Wednesday. I think I'm a little late. I decided to take the week off. Why doesn't this look right? So I'm upstairs hiding in my bedroom because there's children in every other room being loud, but I just wanted to say hello Happy New Year, and I wanted to let you all know that I decided to give myself the week off, so there is no blog and there is no vlog and there is no podcast on Friday. Oh, hi honey, thank you. I thought I was doing this wrong, so thank you for letting me know that I'm actually live. And I have a good one coming next week that I'm working on about New Year's resolutions. So please take some time and work on your resolutions. What, um, reflect on the year. What do you want to work on? What do you want to be different this year? And how are you going to measure it and track it and achieve it? And happy New Year, Patty! I hope I get to see you in 2021. This has been a crazy year, so I am working on my resolutions, and I look forward to sharing with you next week. And I also wanted to say thank you to all of you because last week I shared my COVID story and was very nervous to share it. Told Seth I wasn't going to do it, and Seth encouraged me to share. And I'm so glad that I did because I have gotten so many thank yous. And so much support, love and support. And the lesson that I learned is that I need to not hesitate and I need to just share. And I think the more that we share, the more that we can help people. And I just want— I think my goal was for people to see that COVID looks so different for so many different people, and everyone's symptoms seem to be so different. So thank you for your love and support this whole whole year. It's been such a wonderful year and I have really loved— sharing is caring, thanks honey. I have really loved my whiny palooza journey with you this year. The blog has been such an effective coping skill for me and writing is one of the best things that we can do for ourselves to just get it out onto paper. And I encourage you all to do that, whether you're writing for yourself or writing a letter to someone else. And the vlog has been wonderful to talk about what I'm writing, and the feedback that Seth and I are getting is that the vlog is a better way to communicate to all of you. So I will keep blogging and vlogging. I'm gonna keep podcasting, and I have more ideas in the future. So, um, Happy New Year. Have a wonderful New Year's, and let's hope that 2021 is happy and healthy and easier. Um, love to all of you, and I will see you next week.
