Do I have goals? I guess I do. Let's put them down for the first time ever. In no particular order, except after the first 2 or 3.
- Find gainful, stable employment, preferably not contract based. Would love an FTE role somewhere, doesn't even need to pay a boat load of $$. Just some stability and benefits and growth potential.
- Don't get COVID. It's been almost 4 years, why start now?
- Listen more, react less. I am nothing more than a work in progress. Only I have to be cognizant of the progress part.
- Keep running, no matter what. This year, it'll be 6 years of running and as much as I despise it (lazy), I know I need it. I did about 677 miles last year, which is running, walking and biking all up. Probably 95% or more is from running. Let's get 700 miles this year, all up!
- Play 25-30 shows between Sunset Grooves and Planets in the Ocean. Last year's numbers were padded due to 12 shows with Forest Ray. So far, 2 shows booked, one for each band.
- have PITO play some bigger shows, open for bigger bands.
- Sing lead on a Sunset Grooves song.
- Continue blogging on a regular basis. It will be in fits and starts and it will mainly be music based, but keep the writing going.
- Home related: install drop ceiling lights in the non-lit corners downstairs. I know it can't be hard: purchase lights/fixtures, hang from ceiling, wire to existing leads, don't die from shock, done! University of YouTube to the rescue.
- Pay down the Amazon credit card, then work on busting down the Sapphire card. All dependent on goal #1.
- Be more present for the fam, work on experiences instead of stuff. Let's reprioritize outings and vacations. What about day trips?
- Vote Democrat for a brighter future (that one will be easy).
