As 2025 has started with a storm and a snow day, I wanted to take some time to reflect on 2024.
As I counted the books I read, as recorded through my e-reader history and record of the library reading challenges, I was surprised to realize that I had read 50 books in 2024. I had also listened to 29 audiobooks.
My favorite audiobook author is Melanie Cellier, with her the Four Kingdoms series, Beyond the Four Kingdoms series, and Return to the Four Kingdoms series taking up 17 of my audiobook completions.
I volunteer at my favorite local farm a total of a dozen times. I would have volunteered more, but a bathroom remodel project kept me at home waiting for workers during most of the summer.
I spent spring break at 3 local state parks with my dad.
Looking at the games I played, I ended up play 124 different games in 2024, but between those games, I played 375 different games.
There's a lot that happened that I didn't track: how many times I hiked at a state park, how many dates I had with my husband, family meet-ups and gatherings, etc.
2024 had its ups and its downs, its stressors and its successes, but overall, it was an enjoyable year.
