Goodbye and Good Riddance 2014: so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good bye...  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.

Buh bye, 2014.

Now tagless for your comfort.

This year has not been an easy one. I am glad you guys are here. B.org has been a bright spot for me when I needed it.

not your mom's socks.

I'm so grateful for this board, and even when I'm quiet or skimmy, I am thinking of you. Thank you for being a vastly important part of my life during all the things.

Wishing everyone here a 2015 that kicks 2014's ass.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

While I do my end-of-year stuff according to the Jewish calendar, I saw a question on Twitter: what is your best memory of 2014.

It was the vacation. Thank you so much for it. I was and still am so happy that it came true. Thank you, you wonderful bunch of people. So happy that Nilly pointed me in your direction.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

2014 was, on the whole, a good year for me. I had a real summer vacation for the first time since college, and got to spend part of it with family and good friends, including an excellent (if all too brief) trip to Athens, which reminded me of just how much I love going places I've never been. So I'm hoping to do more of that in the coming years... but probably not this year, since I'm expecting another baby in July, which tends to put a damper on the big international travel plans. Maybe in 2016!

Thanks! We're very excited, except for Rose, who has no idea what is about to transpire. Also, Mark is happy because when I'm pregnant is the only time I feel like eating and napping as much as he does.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Congrats, Kate!

And happy new year, everyone!
