The All right, Mary.

Hello Mary, happy, almost New Year.

Oh my goodness, Baby New Year is ready to push his way right out of of

the womb of 2023 and go screaming into 2024.

What what was screaming into 2024. What was 2023?

How would like, was it good?

You know, I mean I guess for everybody it's a, you know, that's a unique question.

I feel like a you know that's a unique question I feel like you know from what I see

and you know social media whatever which is all very curated you know everyone's kind of in a general

malaise for the past however many years I would would say personally, I think the 2023 was a challenging year,

but only because I had to like,

because of the challenges that I took on versus like challenges that I encountered or like,

oh, this was a hard year and terrible things happened.

I would say good things happened and I made good things happen.

And so for me, and I made good things happen.

And so for me, I guess in the context of like, if we think about how, you know,

20-20, everything kind of went off the rails

and I think, I know I feel like none of us have really gotten back onto rails or onto new rails I want to believe that personally I've built some rails in 2023 and I'm hoping to get on them and stay on them in 2024.

I feel like 2023 was just like jam-packed which gives it this like chaotic nature and not chaotic in like the same vein as

2022 2021 2020 where it was like all sort of the same form of chaos.

2023 was like, there's joy, there's comedy, there's this great thing,

there's this great thing, there's this great thing, there's Sasha Colby, da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da, da da da da da da da da da da da da da.
