I write a holiday letter every year that I enclose in my holiday cards. The edited highlights:
- I am continuing to run my own business
- I have a sweet contract with a major IT company

- I got a new server (read: desktop that I transformed into a server)
- We got a Tivo and a good sound system, and I got an iPod
- DH is in business school (and I never see him any more

)
- I became a Microsoft Certified Professional (ah, the dark side...)
