Last year was unusually eventful, even for me. Had the disastrous Poland trip that seemingly (hopefully) cured me of my sunlight problem. Had possibly the biggest crisis I've ever gone through too - not something I want to talk about, but am still effectively ill as a result. Also not doing too much at church yet. Am actually amazed at how much things can change over a comparatively short period of time. I seem to see almost everything differently now. God is still very much the same, but everything else seems different, including me. A lot of it seems negative, but I'm hoping I might ultimately learn something from all this.

Have been throwing myself into my work a lot lately: happy to say that my employers have been great through all this stuff, and I'm really enjoying my job. Still working towards that CCIE! I've also taken a break from alcohol: haven't touched it for almost 70 days now. No promises or anything, but it's certainly less expensive this way! Have been having a few too many energy drinks though, partly because I never seem to have any energy! Hoping to overcome this by exercising more, but it's slow going - I struggle to exercise because I have no energy, but I potentially have no energy because I don't exercise.

Don't have much else to say right now. On the plus side, things can only get better from here! (I'm such an optimist!)
