Almost over

Dec 01, 2014 11:23

My ten month epic journey of carlessness has almost come to a close. Today I renewed my license, after coughing up a lot of cash to the state. Tomorrow morning I will re-open my auto insurance, and after that I will pick up my new car. Hooray for mobility! This will put me back in a fair bit of debt, but I can't complain. It's just something else to check off and deal with over time. Once this is past me, I can start making some other serious changes and continue my forward momentum.

Thanksgiving dinner was another success, all the food came together and the turkey once again fell off the bone. Most of the party wound down earlier than normal, but we still had a crew that played Cards Against Humanity until midnight or so. They managed to play through all the regular white cards and four expansions worth, a feat I'd never seen before! The rest of the holiday was spent doing absolutely nothing more strenuous than reading and watching TV. It was kind of glorious. My painting motivation is down; there are a lot of changes going on in Warhammer, very few of them positive. Hopefully things will shake out in the near future. If not, the good news is that if I sell all my armies I can jump right into a new hobby like golf. Ha.

I'm still working out, though sporadically. It would be good to have a workout buddy, or some other motivational source to keep me going. Vanity is less important when you are heading towards 50. Still, I look quite good for some one of my years!

So, as we move into the tail end of 2014, I replace one set of hurdles (legal) with another (financial), one within my power to deal with. I had a house filled with friends and family. I stand ready to close the year on a good note and move forward to something new and exciting. I might even write about it when it happens!
