Every few weeks I have a mini panic attack that I'm not getting anything done or making progress in my life. I think we all feel like that from time to time. So I thought I'd take a look back at 2014 and what I did get done. It may be few weeks since the rest of the world performed their yearly reassessment, but I figure as long as the calendar still reads January that new year mojo is still in the air. So here we go, a look back at 2014.
