\"2016-1-28-Dawn-Headset-BW\"For me, December is a season full of holidays for other people.\u00a0 <\/span>Christmas, Hanukkah, Yule and others are all very important for my friends and loved ones.\u00a0 <\/span>But in my little corner of the universe, New Years is the most important celebration of the season.\u00a0 <\/span>It\u2019s time to reflect on the past year and make plans for the next. I usually spend the entire month of January processing all my thoughts about what came before, and then gearing up for the next 11 months of production, relaxation, and everything in between. \u00a0 <\/span>2015 was an amazing year, with such tremendous highlights and wonderful achievements so I thought I would take a moment and thank you for joining me on this adventure and to share my personal triumphs.<\/span><\/p>\n
