A time, perhaps, to reflect on the past year and a project enthusiastically added to a new year’s resolution that remains unfinished and nagging at us to get it done. Might be a project like a scrapbook, a garden addition,  recipes to prepare, or a skiff to build in the garage.  There is still something there in the mess that begs to be finished.

You must read it to the end to discover a surprising solution!
