January

It really is hard to believe it's the end of January.  Time has just flown by!  Good, bad?  Not so sure except that it really is whizzing by.  

The holidays were good seeing friends and family.  But it was so busy.  Some days, there were up to 3 visits.  It was great to fit everybody in but I have to admit that I was getting tired.  I actually ended up with only day where I didn't have to do anything.  Literally, the house looked like a bomb had gone off.  But I didn't care.  I needed to rest from activities.  Lame, I know. 

However, over the holidays, I did find out that someone had passed.  I went to their wake on January 2nd.  Can't say this was the best way to celebrate the new year.  But it is what it is.  Got to see a bunch of people I knew, but it was weird.  "Hey, Happy New Year...so sorry for your loss."  But because it was a celebration of life, it wasn't somber.  Lots of wonderful laughs remembering a great person.  

And in between, there was work.  Lots of things going on keeping me busy.  But in a great way.  The days go by fast and before I know it, it's back home. 

This year is also my 40th.  I have a lot of things to look forward to.  I have 2 major trips coming up and a number of smaller ones.  I love travelling so this is PERFECT!  I also have my advanced co-pilot's course so I'll be flying a plane later this year.  That's just the start.  I plan to have a good time celebrating 40 rather than going through a mid life crisis.  

It's all good.
