Well, it’s been almost 2 years since my last post so it’s time to reboot and rebrand while re-evaluating life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2020 happened and it’s not even over yet.  Life has changed so much, but I can only think of how fortunate we have been so far.  My family has pretty much been stuck inside since February, but other than that, it’s not too bad.  We have or health, our jobs and things are as good as they can be, but that can all change in an instant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I keep telling my kids that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. This isn’t forever<\/li>
  2. We’re lucky all we have to do is stay at home<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    I haven’t had to go through anything like this, but my parents were both in the Japanese American internment camps and had to live through tough times afterwards.  And my grand parents, who were also born in America, lived through the great depression.  So I remind them that even though we all might get a little bored or feel restless at times, we sit at home, watch videos and play games.  My wife and I have both been working more than ever, but it keeps us busy.  Hopefully, things will get better soon and until then, we will keep a positive attitude and keep perspective on life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    And as for every day life, I’ve been building out my office\/guest room for the past few years even though I hardly ever sat in this room.  I can’t say I planned any of this, but it’s worked out great so far.  I posted a picture back in February of my workspace ‘for the next few weeks’.  In retrospect, that was incredibly wishful thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Another thing I’ve learned to do is to cut my own hair.  I tried to do it a little bit in college and I’ve cut my boys hair every now and then.  But I’ve been getting better at it and I might keep at it when the pandemic is over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There’s only a few more months left this year, but there seems to be something new for this apocalypse meme every week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Hopefully things start to change for the better soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
