|| Mood Leaving 2017 Behind

After I wrote the last of something ... thought it was the summary of the year of 2017, but it was not.  So let's see, a round up of what was going on in the one month -

* back to the US on the 28th

* two trips to the chinese embassy, and still don't know if the document could ever work, also highly dependent on other people's schedule and interpretation.  I'm starting to think that it's not meant to be, maybe that's the way I am told 

* two trips to the hospital, and a major biopsy next week

* TV cabinet gone, new TV console coming in

* one week of flu, very sick, one trip to patient first after many many years since the richmond time, and multiple trips to the safeway pharmacy

* many boxing day sales events

* finished a book and started two more

* started using google home

* major decluttering efforts
* backed all digital photos and digital documents

2018 is highly uncertain - all seem to be dreadful, tasks, but they never seem to come to an end

* lots of medical screening already planned out, incl. cardio, endo, women's screening

* possible a week trip to china

* immigration multiple milestones

* possible many things possible
* organize emails and create backup archives

Life needs to be simple - many people are saying few and better, minimalist

* spend less time thinking about where I buy clothes for work and for life

* spend less time checking social media websites

* listen more to pod casts, google home

* exercise more and a lot more, walking walking walking

* eat even more healthy, esp. at lunch hours

* spend more time talking to people and socializing with people at work

* continue buying grocery from the reston farmers market
