Ok – seriously, how is 2022 1/3 over? Traveling internationally has seriously made this year fly by. I need to recalibrate 🙂 . Anyway, after our month in Thailand, we hung out in the northeast that was flirting with spring before heading to our next adventure: México! Let’s see what I got up to this month 🙂 .
We’re back in the Northeast USA! After a month in Thailand, I landed in NYC, went to Connecticut for a hot second, and have been bopping around New York State, Massachusetts and Vermont ever since. It’s been a wild time – mostly because of the weather. It’s gone from a sub-zero snowpocalypse to 65 and sunny and back in the Northeast. I’m getting whiplash 🙂 .
I’m writing this while watching the sun rise over the sea in Phuket, Thailand. I’m gazing at the bright stars and listening to the waves. My bird friends have started awakening – including a rooster in the far distance 🙂 . Welcome to Thailand! Continue reading “The Month Of Thailand: February 2022 Recap”
So I haven’t experienced real winter since living in NYC in 2015 and a few months ago I had the (not so) bright idea of spending December and January in the northeast. I was born and raised in Georgia and even during that time, my Mom and I usually went somewhere even warmer like Florida or the Caribbean to tan over Christmas.

I named this month “The Month Of Family,” but am now realizing that’s not completely accurate. I spent this month with my partner’s family who I have co-opted into my “Found Family” since we’re not legally related. Continue reading “The Month Of Family: December 2021 Recap”
Well, somehow I’m in Year 2 of retirement. That’s fucking weird 🙂 . In the same vein, 2022 is almost here. Basically time is a strange beast that I don’t understand. I’ve been busy here retelling the story of my career and writing up my normal annual posts, so we’re only getting into what I did in November now. Sorry for the delay 🙂 . Let’s see what I got up to:

Ok, seriously – where did 2021 go? 2022 is 2 months away and I still feel like I’m mentally in 2020. Life is weird 🙂 . Luckily not all of October was a strange time loop though. We finally got to do something that’s been on my retirement bucket list: Travel around the Southwest to see pretty things! So let’s see what I got up to in October:

As y’all know, I’m a super nerd. And part of being super-nerdy involves being curious about what in the world I would get up to in retirement with 24/7/365 freedom. I also knew that weeks and even months can seem to pass so fast that it’s difficult to recall what I actually did with all those hours.
