Year end

It strikes me suddenly that the year is ending and I sigh. My shoulders slump and I put my feet up. Maybe there'll be time to relax

Joyful noise

If that joy could be captured all in one place, it might prove too intense to bear.

Fun is when you don't know you're having it, you just feel the rush of joy and begin to lose time.

And When it does, catch it before it's too late

It was very cold today. Consequently nobody on the bike trail but me. It was a little scary to be out there after dark, with the temperature dropping. What if I don't make it? This was a possibility I quickly discounted, but the question entered my mind. What if it's too cold out here? What will I do?

Maybe that just serves to remind me how good I have it in real life.

Resolved

General ideas of what to do differently in the new year:

1. Read before bed every night

Helps me sleep, I'm finding

2. Do more blog posts

Also helps me sleep

3. Try meditating

People who do it seem very devoted to the practice. Why shouldn't I get in on that?

4. Eat fermented vegetables every week

Almost goes without saying

5. Bike all the way to work once a week

Currently a 43 mile round trip, should make me stronger

6. Save more money

7. Improve my bread baking skills

8. Cut refined sugar consumption

Omnipresent and not necessarily great for anyone to be eating
