My last post was almost 2 years ago. So. Much. Has. Happened.
It turns out that being “ready” for a global pandemic actually helped and in lots of ways I didn’t anticipate.
There were several important ways in which I failed in getting ready. Because I didn’t have an up-to-date passport, I was unable to travel to see my dad in his last days when he unexpectedly took a turn for the worse. That is not a mistake I will make again.
But the bigger, deeper failure overall has been not taking “care” of myself. This resulted in my partner, my person, giving up on me and moving on. This is not a position I expected to be in.
So, yeah. It’s been a pretty shitty two years. But life finds a way.
