One year later

It’s been exactly a year and one day since I last posted here. And what a year it’s been! Goodness 2020, you sure decided to throw down the gauntlet, right?

In no particular order: No matter how much I think I will enjoy doing nothing, as soon as I finish whatever time-sucking project I have going on, I start something else. I enjoy being busy and creative. Walking 18 miles is no harder on the body than walking 14 miles, but psychologically it feels harder....
