What new year? 
I'm not bound to the Christian calendar... I've started my year a couple of months ago

A new Year? I had no time to recognize this - as real programmer.
Stupid poll.

I am in Product base organization and it is really long n never ending cycle, versions of the same product are release year after year.
(e.g. Say if you are Windows product developer then you have to continue on same product, year and year, Win95/Win2000/WinXp/WinVista/Win7/Win8/Win10)
I have read somewhere "Product versions are not stop until last user die"

The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

First day at my new job and I had to call in sick...
Second day today, but I'm feeling a lot better already.
As for the poll, it's a fresh start, new job and all.

Get well soon and good luck at the new job. I hope it isn't that that's making you ill!

Thanks! And you'd think that, but I've actually been looking forward to it for months and I can't wait to start!
Ah well, sh*t happens... Luckily I'm feeling much better now and plan on going to work tomorrow

It's like birthdays an so on, you celebrate them but nothing actually changes in the world because of them. The day after is just another day anyway.
In projects you might have budget constraints that force some things to end/start at this point but for me it never actually impacted anything.

[at]Work: I am training my sucessor and explaning as much as I can from all my current projects because I'll start in a new job in February
[At]Home: Just got married (civil wedding so far) and finish the reforms in the house (I know there will be always something else to do). From now on we can live here as we wanted to
EDIT: Deleted the "@" to avoid messy "members-linking"
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Took a much needed 2 weeks off from work and spent my entire vacation working on a new version of one of my own apps. Made great progress and had a blast! If I was independently wealthy and didn't need to work for a living, I'd sit at home and write code all day.

If you can work it right, then you can become independently wealthy doing that. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Still on the same program I was hired for almost 10 years ago and have spent somewhere between 65 and 80% of my total time working at my current employer on.
For the next few months I'm going to be doing a few days worth of maintenance work on two older apps, with the vast majority of my time spent on a non-software engineering task (not something I'd've ever sought out as a job; but it's challenging and interesting enough I'm not really complaining either).
Later in the year's a bit fuzzy; but I'll probably be doing more maintenance work on the existing old apps and some code archeology on an old (VC6? prior?) MFC app my programs main customer has decided it needs updated to use a more modern runtime/etc.
I don't think I'll have the opportunity to do any greenfield dev this year. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I have a new project every 2 weeks.
My personal opinion here >> If you are not working in an Agile environment, of some kind, then you and your team need to reevaluate how you do business.

Agreed.
I do think that many people who are not in Agile, could only benefit from it. With that said, it is not a perfect system but the best I have worked with so far in my careers.

I think everyone starts the new year with Party/Celebration and congratulating others.
Project related stuffs comes later.
Life is a computer program and everyone is the programmer of his own life.

I'd love to work at your company. Maybe.
It's my first day at work after a 2 week break and everyone's hit the ground running. Our sprint ends in 3 days, so there's little time for idle chatter.

Oh, and of course using a CListCtrl...

How do you have the time, really?
Do you work full-time and do CP activities?
