It was fun to make time for enjoying the holiday sights around the city last Christmas. I hadn’t done that in years. The physical exercise was good for me, and the mental break rejuvenated me.


Now we’re a few weeks into the new year, and so far things are quiet in my neck of the woods. I had a fair amount of upheaval in my life during 2021, so I appreciate the quiet. It gives me a chance to enjoy the things that make my life fulfilling: photography, gaming, my personal relationships, and so on. I hope to experience a lot more of this in 2022.
