@gideonpsmith I'm so excited and happy for you! It's a sign of great things to come.
Thank you @physa ! I'd be excited if this is a sign of future celebrations, but right now I am trying to take my own advice and pause enough to celebrate this moment before it passes! And I know you're 'in it to win it' so I look forward to celebrating your future moments too!!

Thank you @kz_richards ! I am thrilled - but I am also conscious that there are probably many on here who deserve it just as much, and some no doubt more, than I do - I just got lucky with writing something that resonated this year You for one are a far more accomplished writer than me! Looking forward to celebrate your future posts in this thread too!
