jon_chaissonIt's been a strange couple of weeks here in the Bay Area, what with the ongoing weather and constant chill. We've definitely needed the rain, but MAN is it cold! It's still hovering in the mid-40s to low 50s with a constant wind or breeze, so everything just feels damp and chilly. Not to mention that we'll get downpours in the middle of the night that'll be hard but only last about ten minutes, waking us both up. I read that it might actually warm up and the sun might come out midweek, but given our local weather, we'll only know for sure when it comes.
It's also been a couple of weeks of cleaning in Spare Oom as well. I'd gotten rid of a bunch of boxes we didn't need (or ones that were in poor shape) and I also got rid of a bunch of smaller ones today. That in itself was amusing because a few times I opened up these small boxes to find smaller boxes within that I also had to break down! A and I also did a book purge earlier this afternoon, finally getting rid of some titles that we've had kicking around on the shelf for ages that we weren't going to read (or reread). I'll be dropping those off at the library donation spot in a few weeks. And once we hit January, I'll put away the tree and all the Christmas decorations. And maybe I'll finally have some more room on the floor again!
Normally I'd do some kind of personal Year End Review type of entry here, but a) I'm kind of already doing it at my Welcome to Bridgetown blog and b) 2021 has kind of been a transitional year for me. It wasn't so much a year of finishing projects or reaching goals as it was a year of continuing them. A lot of closet cleaning, cobweb clearing, bad habit dropping, finding clarity, and that sort of thing. Just a lot of things I needed to do or get over with so I could move on. That said, I do have good plans for 2022 that I hope I can work to completion!
Here's to hoping everyone has a great new year!
