Year's End

I'm in my office, possibly for the last time for 2013.  I've done the major tasks and now I'm clearing some minor tasks off my to-do list.  I am ready for the Joint Mathematics Meetings next month, including my talk.

Tuesday we leave town to visit my in-laws and then later my family.  I do not look forward to this.  I love my family but traveling with my wife and kids is never restful.  My in-laws take an eternity to do anything and qre night people, going against the grain of my being.  My Mom moves from crisis to crisis.  I treasure my visits to the gym mostly just for some quiet time.

Not a bad year overall, especially with the weight loss and improvement in my diabetes and blood pressure.  I'm hopeful for next year, definitely looking forward to the JMM.
