April, already
This year is flying by.
We have a lot of things coming up in the next few months. As Spring arrives, we signed up our older boy for swimming lessons and tennis lessons. A lot of other activities have already filled up fast. It is not quite warm enough to get the bikes out. My personal exercise goals have been somewhat hindered by illness and injury. I was able to go out west to snowboard, which was great. I injured my leg, and that is still healing. It seems like the lifting of the mask mandate has unleashed all sorts of colds, bugs, etc. and have hit our house pretty hard. I am still figuring out where our youngest can get into swimming lessons, etc. I am hoping to find someone to play tennis with as well. We may join or at least participate in club nearby.
We are going out to eat with neighbors this week. Swimming lessons start after that.
I had a soft deadline to start the garden stuff this upcoming weekend, but I do not think the weather will permit this. I am hoping to at least have a start on this all in April.
We are going to a concert out of town the following week and have a local concert the week after that.
I have a work conference in May. Work is not quite as busy, but it will pick up again soon. I am presenting at a different event. This will be time consuming and outside of my comfort zone. There are work goals that need to be addressed as well.
We are vising my brother in June. My counsin and her kids are coming to visit Memorial Day weekend as well.
There is also a fishing derby for kids in June. This could be something fun to do.
There is some strife within our street. We spent a lot of time previously with neighbors with one being my wife's childhood friend. They had a falling out over her friend being vindictive and narcissitic over her family being positive with COVID in November and December of 2021. Her friend still has not apologized, and I do not feel like we are really missing out on anything.
The brightside - I think we have some opportunties to make new friends. The kids being in activities will allow us to meet other people with kid(s) similarly aged to our kids. Our older boy also got into pre-K, and this should be kids his age from the school district. I have told my wife to be patient. We do not have to do everything with the neighbords and make friends with everyone at work. Most of the neighbors have kids 5+ years older than our kids, and this makes a lot of activities hard. My motto is to be friendly to everyone. We do not have to be friends with everyone. I think there is a big difference as an adult. We have different priorities and less free time.
