Wow. My last post here was in 2017 and was definitely typed on a laptop. That was one city, one job, one kiddo, and a whole heck of a lot of living ago.
And man have things changed. I have two wonderful kids who a navigating having two homes like champs. I have a fantastic partner who puts up with my baggage. I work for an incredible shop with an amazing team of people who have my back.
But some things haven’t changed. I still ride bikes. Less than before, but now with different purposes and goals. I still live in Appalachia, though a little further north than when I last posted. I still love to read, make art, and cook (and eat). Just have less time to do those things (except the eating bit).
I have some goals for this orbit that we’re currently on. Be more present for my family and friends. Be less harried at work. Get back into better shape (process not outcome based goal). Make art more consistently.
We’ll see how it goes. I would say that I’ll post here regularly, but the last time I did that it took me 7 years to write my next one. Maybe I can cut that down by a few this time.
