Unfortunately, despite my best efforts to not break a two-year tradition, I simply couldn’t get a calendar together by the end of the year. I’ve been involved in multiple projects related to the blog as well as other family matters, and the deadlines just didn’t allow it. I’ll be starting to work soon on one for next year, though. It’s a niche thing about my blog that I like. Thanks for the compliment, though! — Ron
