With another year in the can, today I turn 27. Yes, I know it’s hard to believe I’m only 27. Believe me, I find it hard to believe I’m only 27. It’s what having a kid can do to you–age you significantly.
It’s been an eventful year, both personally and professionally. Here’s a brief recap:
- Most importantly, my daughter Nora was born (hence “The Nora Chronicles”). She’s changed my life in more ways than I can possibly count in such a short time. And who knows what the next year will bring!
- I got to meet some amazing people through Twitter and conferences. Too many to name here, but you know who you are.
- People actually started reading this blog. In fact, my “Naughty Words of Email Marketing” post was featured on MarketingProfs.
- I started and continue to do the Email Snob interviews. I hope you’re loving this series as much as I am.
- I kicked ass at work this year and won the Excellence in University Service Award.
- Had shoulder surgery (and am still in recovery).
So, in the words of Jed Bartlett from “The West Wing”:
What’s Next?
- A second blog project is in the works. Details will be made available when its ready, but stay tuned! (And yes, this blog will continue. Just adding to the repertoire)
- I know I started the Quest for 50 already, but with my shoulder finally on the mend, this is the year I get serious. I owe it to myself and to my family.
- Speaking of family, the next year will bring me a walking, talking baby girl, and all the fun and shenanigans that come with that. The Nora Chronicles could be really fun.
And, as usual, these are the only things I really know about. There are some possibilities on the horizon, but they are largely unknown.
So Happy Birthday to myself, and all the August 20th birthday folks out there!
