\"2-postcard_back-am-final-flatw\"<\/a>As the song says: Another year over, and what have we done<\/em>?<\/p>\n

Well, I don’t know about you, but here\u00a0is a summary of my year, in pictures \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

\"Cameras<\/a>

The old and the new<\/p><\/div>\n

After a lengthy hiatus, I rediscovered photography<\/strong> using a proper (albeit digital) camera…<\/p>\n

…and made inroads into my photographic Tarot deck project<\/a><\/strong> :<\/p>\n

\"pic07\"<\/a>

I didn’t quite manage to complete the whole of the Major Arcana in 2015, but I’m close!<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

I completed 15 <\/strong>(almost 16)<\/em> knitting and crochet projects:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"2015FO\"<\/a>

I haven’t photographed all of them yet<\/p><\/div>\n

You may suppose that I have succeeded in reducing my stash, but no, a quick check of my stash on Ravelry tells me that I purchased…OMFG!!! 20,354.6 metres of yarn in 2015! What was I thinking?!! \ud83d\ude2e \u00a0Oh, I know…lovely…smooshy…yaaaarn…:P To be fair, I did use some up…errm…3,865 metres of that, as part of the 11k metres I used up in total. Oh well, only and additional 16.5k metres to use up this year…ummm…in addition to the other *cough* 73k metres in my stash. At current work rate, that’s only another 8 years worth :\/<\/p>\n

It was a big year for family\u00a0gatherings\u00a0<\/strong>(and friends too):<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"fam&friends\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In addition to the usual Easter and Christmas gatherings, we also had a family holiday (Cornwall), a rare birthday party for me, a wedding and catching up with\u00a0my Good<\/a> and Evil(ler)<\/a> Twins. Fun times! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

I even managed to do some work<\/strong> too and found myself at\u00a0a wide variety of locations and time periods:<\/p>\n

\"events\"<\/a>

From Romans to WWII, via the Medieval, Tudor and Napoleonic<\/p><\/div>\n

TBH, it wasn’t the best year I’ve had work-wise, so here’s hoping for\u00a0a better one in 2016. Many happy times had with fellow traders and friends who came to visit \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

There were also many reminders of what a wonderful world<\/strong> we live in:<\/p>\n

\"world\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And last, but not least, I achieved balance <\/strong>(in other words, I lost some weight and then put it back on again)\u00a0Must try harder in 2016! ;D<\/p>\n
