Well – that was an unexpectedly busy day.

But I had a list and I ticked everything off. Yes, I know, I know – I like to tick things off. I have to-do lists and when all those things are done, I have a clear mind and I don’t have to think or worry and darnitall I like it. What’s more, I don’t think that’s about to change any time soon.

I am well into the final editing process of the book and that feels good. When I turn the manuscript over, that will be one massive check mark.

And I’m breathing more deeply into not worrying so much about elections in countries where I have no voice. I am focussing more strongly on those things where I have an influence. And that changes everything. So – a new home for Simon and I, tons of satisfying and joyous work, a new life to build together, challenges to overcome, and a lifestyle to celebrate.

Now there’s a focus I can get behind.
