Not really feeling like one of those lists of questions

But a few retroflections on the state of the me.
Well, that was the year that less than two weeks in my father died. Not entirely unanticipated, but still.
So, one of the things I did this year that I'd never done before was be an executor.
***
Books read: 250 +/-
Non-home places where I spent at least a night: the family homestead, multiple occasions; Leeds; Birmingham; Chicago; Madison; New York; Long Island; Frankfurt; Krakow; Grayshott.
Academic activity: very little. A few papers given mostly on older stuff. A couple of reviews. A few articles, book proposals and grant applications refereed. Minimal amounts of research. No articles or chapters written. Nothing published (except reviews): some things in publishing pipeline. A couple of new projects.
Things I have been meaning to do for ages and did: got a new workout programme at the gym; got a better deal on common-areas insurance.
Health: too many migraines, and arthritis making itself more noticeable.
