Was messing around this evening on my laptop and decided to run updates on my WordPress sites. It’s been a busy time since my last post — a new child will do that.
Things I need to focus on:
More exercise: I’m not getting any younger — or thinner — so I need to do more than mountain bike.
Play more mandolin: specifically I need to learn some more songs so I don’t drive my family crazy with repeats.
Write more: I’m about half way through the first draft of a fantasy novel, and I have an idea for a play that may turn into another novel.
Read more books: I recently completed the Three-Body Problem trilogy by Cixin Liu, and I’m about to finsh the “The House of the Cerulean Sea” by TJ Klune. Next up, I will probably read “Slayers of Old” by Jim C. Hines.
Save Money: Everything is expensive and my car is not getting any younger.
Stay in touch with friends and family: life is busy, but I need to do better.
Study GIS: I’ve always enjoyed geography and maps, so it seems like a fun skill to add to my toolkit.
I’m sure there are other things to do, but you can’t cover everything in a single night.
