Happy new year to all of you!

I don't know about you but I'm going to tiptoe into 2022, walk with caution and hope it's a better year than the one we just left behind.

Omicron infections are on the rise. I have yet to receive my boostershot -- scheduled for the 12th of January. I'll be doing a Pfizer/Moderna crossover -- vaccinated with Pfizer and boosted with Moderna.

I won't do new year's resolutions -- they're just going to end up out the window anyway -- but I do want to try and be more active again. Share more of my interests and stuff.

We'll see.

In the meantime... stay healthy! Stay safe!!

Hello 2020!

First and foremost, I'd like to wish everyone still reading this the best of luck in the new year. May it bring you joy and happiness in all that you do.

I made new year's resolutions last year of which I probably didn't keep up with. I did read a lot more, and I started exercising more, by which I mean I took up rope-skipping again.

Some 25 years ago, I was a competition level skipper but those days are long gone. Although, I still got the moves.
It was a colleague of mine (with whom I've become quite good friends) who pushed me to find a sport I would love to do (and chess didn't count). She kept pushing until I finally wanted her to stop nagging so I joined a local rope-skipping group. She got her way. :p

There's maybe one resolution I would like to make and that would be that I would try to post here again. I've been absent, I know (don't tell me), and I thought it had maybe been too long to come back and say "Hey, still alive!". However, someone recently told me it's never too late to come back in and go "Hey guys, I'm still alive. How are you?"

So here I am... again...

And I will try to post at least once a week -- even if it's just to say "hi".

First and foremost, good wishes to all of my friends and anyone else reading this.

New year has started! It'll hopefully be a good one for everyone.

Anyone made any resolutions?
According to a study, if you don't start within the first 6 days of making them, you won't start at all.

I made 5 resolutions:

1) read a book a month, so that should total to 12 books this year
This should, in theory, be doable.

2) do more hiking
I really want to get back into hiking like I used to do a couple of years ago, so that any of my next trips could be another walking holiday in the UK -- any of the Mickledore Walking ones are fine by me, including the one I already did, Hadrian's Wall Walk.

3) play more boardgames
There are a few that I have that I simply haven't had the chance to try yet. And a couple that I really would like to learn how to play.

4) ride my bike more often
My bike got stolen over the summer but my downstairs neighbor had one their son wasn't using anyway so they sold me the bike for 50 euro (it's worth way more than 50 though I doubt they realized that -- good for me). I had this crazy of thought of taking it around the ringway of Leuven, and basically circle the entire city (it's not as big as I'm making it sound). I'd be dead the first few times but it would be a good work-out, especially since I'm not really into all that fitness stuff, except rowing -- that I like.

5) enjoy life more, and worry less
I don't know how I'll go about this one, but I need to let go of a few things to get there, I think. Especially with regards to work and my current teamlead. I'm gonna have to find a way I can cope with her obvious adversity for me, or fight a battle I probably can't win and could damage my further career within the company in the process.

And another one that I don't know if I can keep... but I should post more here. Like make a conscious effort to stay up-to-date with all of you, and you know, drop in once in a while. I'll do my best though.

Anyhoodle, I should get started on the fandom stockings... I'm running behind already. =P
