Yay! Finally got my reindeer! A week later this year than last year, but still with the support and encouragement of my husband who is recovering well from both open-heart surgery(8 weeks ago) to repair some faulty valves (which was discovered when he was doing the work up to have cryoablation to eradicate prostate cancer) and prostate cancer surgery 5 weeks later at the beginning of this month. I don't think I'll get as many meters in this year as last, but as everyone can attest to, it's been a tough year. Covid slowed me down in March, but I had a more mild case, so was able to push through it. I could go on with the woes of the year, but I'm sure everyone on the Luna-Tics has a story regarding this crazy year that could rival mine. :wink:
So needless to say I feel as though I've accomplished something big by being able to get in 100,000 meters for this Challenge. I haven't been able to get onto the forum as much as I'd like, but do check on you guys every now and then. So thanks Luna-Tics for being a good steady constant during a difficult year.
Jodi, so sorry to hear about this. I hope all goes well for you and your husband.

Just as I finished the last bit of meters to get those antler lights for Buttercup, the Great Conjunction was being announced as "go outside right now". I couldn't have scripted it better. Cool stuff, these planetary alignments.

Thank you. I hope 2021 is a better year for all of us.
