A crossroads

All of sudden, a number of doors have opened. There is no clear view of what is across their thresholds though. The current "room", shall we say, is fine. I'm happy. A bit uncomfortable in some areas, but I think I could continue with minor changes and stay happy. But these doors have opened and change of some sort is going to happen. The question is how big. And what is best.

I'm left at a crossroads, of a sort, and I must say, I'm quite uncomfortable. I've spent the weekend alone and very much chose it to be that way. I'm stuck in my head and am only making small amounts of progress so far. But I have made some progress. And the New Year only leaves me with a four weeks time to make some potentially big decisions. That isn't much time... I think it means I have to access all the possible directions at once. And that will be a lot of work and the thought of it is quite overwhelming. Hence the quiet weekend and time alone to get started at a slow pace, no pressure until January, but progress nonetheless.

I'm not opposed to change. Never have been. I generally welcome it. But... choosing the right kind of change... I can't see the future; all I can do is way all my options... very carefully. And hope for the best!!

The company holiday party

So last night was my company holiday party. And as usual it was a good time, although not quite the "party" that it often is. The weather was snowy and people just seemed to lack their normal enthusiasm for dancing and hanging out. Oh well. It was still very fun to catch up with my friends from work that I never see. And of course, I had the best "date" there, my friend Evan. He is comfortable in a just about any situation and is always fun to have around. And he owns a suit and looks quite snazzy in it as well. :)

Here is a quick self-portrait of us. Not excellent camera handling but don't we look great?! Just look at that fantastic tie and those big grins! :)















Happy Holidays!!
