It's Dewey Decimal System Day!

The library! Where would we be without it?!

Happy Friday Friends!!!

 

Happy Newsletter Friday! Welcome to those of you who are reading this for the first time and welcome back to those returning! Let's kick it off with the anticipated poll results!

 

THE POLL RESULTS: 

HELLO, it's me! Poll results time! This past poll for sure didn't go easy on you all because it was a contentious race. Which came out on top, which was in last? We will find out soon but, does Adele make us emotional? Yes. Okay, now let's find out!

It appears it was a three-way tie!! It looks like it is between 19, 21, and 25. All of her albums are stellar and it is hard to pick one when they are pinned next to each other. I randomly picked the winner from a random number generator and the winner is 25!

OTHER NEWS:

Last week we had a big holiday on our hands. It was Spotify Wrapped Day! This holiday is always a joyous day because it is about celebrating music. What I find remarkable about this day is the amount of connection that it generates. People are sharing music that helped them get through the year. Music that made them dance. Music that they used at work. Music that played in the background of their lives. It is fun comparing and contrasting each other's top artists, top songs, and the number of minutes listened to. I hope those who got to celebrate Spotify Wrapped Day had a great day!

 

It is the holiday season! The holiday season is great because we get to exchange gifts, notes about how we are grateful for each other, and reflect on the past year. While this year (and every year) is a wild ride, it is important to pause and take stock of what you are grateful for. I for one am grateful for a lot things and one is all the support you all have shown me throughout my creative endeavors. I truly am honored for all of the support. The other thing that is lovely about the holiday season is that there is a lot of light found in the dark. Even in the darkest moments of the year - there is light. Thank you all for everything and continuing to be a light for me.

Thank you for reading this and if this brought a smile to your day, feel free to forward it on and spread the cheer! Don't forget the impact a little kindness can have. It can create lots of change!

 

'Til next time,

...alex is out
