These Are A Few of My Favorite Things

Reading and writing on PT and learning

Hot black coffee and green smoothie churning

Podcasts and blogs and kettlebell swings

These are a few of my favorite things

Nerdy lyrics aside, as it is the eve of 2015, I thought I would take a few moments to catalog some of my favorite things from this past year. 2015 turned out to be a very eventful year for me. Some of the highlights include moving back to Richmond, VA after two years in Memphis, TN. I became part of Twitter University and made many new wonderful professional contacts, (several of whom I was able to meet personally at a workshop featuring @Jerry_DurhamPT at Entropy Physical Therapy). I also started a blog, became part of themanualtherapist.com team, discovered that wearing funky socks to work is fun, gave up cable TV and re-discovered my love of reading. Obviously, a lot more happened, but this is a good start. So without further-ado, here's a list of some favorite things from this past year:
