2022?! How Did That Happen?

 A former pastor once told "Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer you get to the end the faster it goes!" Well, I must be closing in on the end because I have no idea where 2021 went. 

I remember church being closed for snow in January. We took the grands for vacation at Easter. We had our business partner and her family over for Thanksgiving and we didn't spend Christmas with family because of a positive COVID test.

But all thru the year I can't remember flying past, I kept reading. My goal for the year originally was 36 books, but I increased it to 50 and still surpassed it. I finished an A to Z Challenge and finished up some series that I had left hanging. Here's my final list for 2021...
