I closed out 2025 very quietly, working steadily and indulging in some domesticity. I got a new couch, which got my girls’ immediate approval.
One noteworthy thing that happened in December is I got started on a medicolegal report editing course, to add a new line of business in 2026.
I think the most important thing that happened in December is what I didn’t do — set up new systems for the upcoming year. It took decades, but it finally felt like I had my life together and lasting routines.
