My goals came quickly and clearly this year. That’s in part because there’s one – number 4 below – that I know will require an incredible amount of effort, diligence, heart, courage, focus, and time to get off the ground, and then continually shape and manage.

So! The plan is to reupholster them in a performance velvet/microsuede/whatever our brown sofa is because that
