Hey Reaper,
I am alive and well - not ignoring you. Just navigating “IT Project Season” during the days (and some nights and weekends) while herding a 5-year old the rest of the time.
Had a change of entertainment recently. Been spending more time with LEGO building. It’s a great distraction from everything else going on in the world, and my son loves the train we built. I’m now on a mission to collect the right bricks to re-create some of the subway and elevated stations we have in Seattle. Not to scale (I don’t have that much patience), but the hobby keeps me going.
I also recently got into Sudoku. I’m about 10 years late to that party, but it’s “mindless” entertainment that helps keep my mind sharp(ish).
I know everyone has their opinions on the vaccine, and I’m not here to debate that. My son is finally old enough to get the shot, so he’s done with the first round. Once he gets his second shot, he’ll be on level playing field with all of us older than five to be able to choose whether to get the jab or not (I fully understand that he is five, and his parents made the decision, but hopefully you get my meaning).
I’m neither optimistic nor pessimistic on where 2022 will take the world. Like everyone else, though, it would sure be nice to get back to some level of normalcy. While hope is not much of a strategy, I do think it’s still worth hoping for the best.
