365

Today marks the 365th day since I moved out of my "real" office into my at home office.

A strange year to be sure.

My wife thinks I am brilliant as I knew about COVID back in the middle of January, thanks to Paul's very very early post.

I made multiple mis-steps guessing market trends.

I re-evaluated my career trajectory.

Sold my sailboat (sad face)

Sold my 911 SC (ok with this)

Bought a Boxster S (happy face)

I caught some very large trout.

I went from a super low consumer of streamed movies and TV to a more average consumer.

I gained a few pounds.

I mountain biked a bunch.

I skiied some this year.

Put on many miles walking the dog. And, taught him to play dead.

Can you see how bored I have been???



How was your year?

Cruised along

Learned to tie flies (fishing, not insect S&M)

Reorganized my garage 27 times

Kayak fished

Went back to work with a vengeance.

I think I need to reorganize my garage one more time.

I've been working remotely for a bit over 8500 days now...

Did a lot of stuff in that time.
