Yah, I put this off until March. That is probably significant.
Bad things. 2 year Massage License Suspension. High School friend lost the battle with his depression and took his own life. Bike got stolen. Assorted small dramas, most of which were pretty large at the time. Or seemed that way.
Good things. Working for Postmates, losing weight and riding bicycling A Lot. Older Step Daughter got Married. Younger step daughter started college at Evergreen. Bio Daughter gave birth to a beautiful young lady, Jamie. Oldest nephew and wife came to Seattle to visit, during Superbowl weekend (the one Seahawks won, so the important one), then, some time later, they decided to have a baby, also, and did so in good order (also in February 2015, so not strictly speaking part of this review). She is Shiny. Saw family, will be seeing more family this summer.
Bought a new, better bike.
Looking forward. I am learning, slowly, to stay in the moment. Mostly, my mantra is "Do the thing in front of you, Daiv." Sometimes the job in front of me is a huge hill to climb (like, Denny, which no longer makes me go around it) or the feeding of the cats (as I have just been reminded). Sometimes, the thing is to Be. Sometimes (often) the thing is to Listen. And with practice, I am getting better at these things.
