I won’t bother recapping all the things I already wrote about – please look back on your own for anything you may have missed and in order to jack up my hits in case I try to sell the blog to an off-kilter billionaire.

Things I didn’t do:

Break any bones or tear any soft tissue (to my knowledge).

Read a book that wasn’t an electronic (but a lot of those).

Play the piano for anyone other than my piano teacher (and possibly a spider on the window sill).

Go to a movie theater (except the one that has been converted into a bank, and then only to steal a pen).

Set my bedside alarm.

Open a window.

Order more than 150 items from Amazon.

Play golf outside – I love playing on a simulator indoors – it’s a short walk from home; it takes less than an hour and a half to play 18 holes; I can choose from at least one hundred different courses around the world (and I think one on a moon of Jupiter); food and beverage service is never more than fifty feet away (more like fifteen for special customers like someone I know); it’s never too hot, too cold, too windy (unless you want it to be by adjusting the program), or raining; the ground is flat (no uneven places from which to take an elderly nosedive); no searching for wayward balls, or losing them; no one hitting into your group; no slow players in front of you; and much closer to the nearest emergency room, just in case.

I can hardly wait to see what things I can avoid doing in 2025! (like using too many exclamation points).
