Most years I make an informal list of some of the "bests." Since I reported on 2009, I guess I should do likewise for 2010. Lists may not always have the same categories. Years aren't all the same! Since I've been writing and blogging like crazy, I've written more about many of these things... hence the links.

Well, I've spent quite a bit of enjoyable time going through all your posts here. I am amazed that you put that old lamp back together!! I would have given up and just gotten a new one. You have amazing patience, Joan!
I look forward to seeing next year's list!!
Many small victories make up a major achievement.
I hope you have a Happy New Year! I'll be looking through all of these.
I like this list. I wish I would have come up with some kind of list like this. Hmm something to think about for the coming year :)
The list is a great way for your blog to celebrate the year end. I remember reading many of the posts linked here. Happy New Year!
Carmen- Thanks... I'm sort of like a dog that just has to keep gnawing an old bone.
rainfield- the list really does make each year look like something was accomplished, and lifts it out of the same old- same old
Ratty- and to you too! Thanks for taking a look... as you can, of course.
Ann- I try to do it to keep each year from being just like the one before.
Ivy- yes, my best blogger buddies have been through much of this with me!
That was a good (and unique) end-o-the-year list, Sharky. :)
