1. What did you do in 2020 that you'd never done before?
Did a couple Zooms with folks close to me. Wore a mask like in a kiddie cops and robbers game into various stores.
2. Did you keep your new year's resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I don't make resolutions.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
No one close to me is the right age. But I know I gained at least one more great, great nephew.
4. Did anyone close to you die?
I haven't heard from an old school chum yet this season and I'm afraid he may have.
5. What countries did you visit?
Grocery-Store-Land, Take-Out-Restaurant-Land, even Bookstore-Land. Early in November, Weirdos-for-Trump visited my bend in the river in force. They were loud, but otherwise tolerable.
6. What would you like to have in 2021 that you lacked in 2020?
Like everybody else, a little more person contact, and I'm a virtual hermit anyway!
7. What date from 2020 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
March 10. Was with my sister for the last time this year, and went into isolation that afternoon
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
I finished a bilingual dictionary. Don't ask.
9. What was your biggest failure?
I still have work to do on the house.
10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
Yeah, but not *that* illness. My diet has been a little restricted off-and-on for much of the year.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
Haven't bought much of any consequence, I guess my web cam with microphone for doing Zoom.
12. Where did most of your money go?
Mostly into the bank. I'm thinking of getting a newer car next year.
13. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
If really, really, really angry counts, I made the mistake of watching a video of a number of crooked evangelists telling people via TV and in church, they'd spoken to God and he'd told them he would make sure Trump got a second term.
14. What song will always remind you of 2020?
"All by Myself" What else?
15. Compared to this time last year, are you happier or sadder?
About the same. I do feel like I'm drifting more after years of feeling secure.
ii. thinner or fatter?
Maybe a little lighter for this time of year. See above re-diet.
iii. richer or poorer?
Mostly the same.
16. What do you wish you'd done more of?
Could have used more execise.
17. What do you wish you'd done less of?
Can't think of anything.
18. What was your favorite TV program?
My sister's family used to call it "Mommy's favorite channel." TV off. It's a huge change for me.
19. Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?
Not that I recall.
20. What was the best book you read?
Sword of Destiny from the Witcher series.
21. What was your greatest musical discovery?
That I can still play a little after months of not trying.
22. What did you do on your birthday?
Can't remember. In that time frame I got a new video game. It filled the time, but it wasn't great.
