I failed to meet one or two personal goals, but had some satisfying professional success, was lucky that my new manager is somebody whom I was able to develop a good relationship with, continued to never contract Covid-19 and received a nice pay raise to end the year. Meanwhile, the city, although still beset by problems and burdened with a worse-than-useless political class, is far from the emptied-out Hellscape that I had feared during lockdown that it would become and every day that passed meant that there were fewer days remaining in Mayor Kenney's tenure, which is an accumulation of blessings.

So, although I am melancholy by nature, I think that it went pretty well from where I'm standing.
