I'm now 2 weeks out from starting my Sabbatical and still in the process of decompressing! For the most part, I've been trying to catch up on things around the house that I have been putting off for a long time -- just ordered a replacement for a broken toilet, weeding in the garden, cleaning the house (omg, so much dust!), etc.
I've also been going to local parks as part of a need to increase my physical activity -- I mean really, just how long can I blame the pandemic for my increasing girth?!
I've also been spending more time w/ the camera, something thet makes me happy.


Speaking of the pandemic, one thing I have noticed is an ongoing 'tension' and lack of courtesy around town. These last few years have been hard on everyone. School / grocery store / worship space shootings, wars, viruses, disinformation, inflation, disrespect for established political process, valuing ignorance over education -- the last few years have been rough!
