Intentions for 2023

Lenny January 1, 2023 New Year Leave a Comment 139 Views

I looked back at my intentions for 2022 and it’s disappointing how poorly I did at achieving any of them. I think I basically need to try again with the same intentions this year. The only one I was...

Happy New Year!

Lenny December 31, 2022 New Year Leave a Comment 153 Views

2022 was a better year for me. Still not life as we know it but definitely living. I traveled enough to feel guilty about my part in contributing to climate change and my only mitigation is that I’m pretty...

Lenny May 28, 2020 Leave a Comment 1260 Views
