2010 synopsis

[vaneramos]

2010 was a year of challenges, mostly positive. I resumed a daily writing practice, refinanced my debt, tried a new secondary romantic relationship but it didn't work out, participated with the Rainbow Chorus in perfoming "Starlight" by Mark Sirett with lyrics written by me, reduced my dosage of anti-depressant medication, took a memorable road trip to Winnipeg with Danny to attend a choral festival, developed an important friendship with Lori, experienced some disappointing drift in my relationship with Dad, acquired a loom and learned to weave, and began freelance writing web content. Emotionally I've had some hard times, especially the fallout from the breakup in June, and a six-week period of insomnia after the shift to Standard Time in November. Still I made some progress and my optimism for the future has increased. I haven't needed the light box so far this winter.

2011 promises some exciting changes. Happy New Year, everyone.
