I am trying to close out all my 2008 business before midnight and in the midst of that I figured I needed one last post of the year before I start fresh.
This year has brought a lot of changes for me, some good and some bad and some that were both and neither.
In January I did something I had never done before, every year I take a trip to DC for an annual leather convention.
