Thanksgiving - time to catch up with life

This blog has been languishing ... for almost a year. I have been too busy living to sit down and reflect on life. That is good and bad. Good that I have a life - bad that I do not take time to reflect.

The times when I might have sat down to reflect, events grabbed me:
- Each of my parents in turn got sick and died.
- My house needed some maintenance, and I temporarily had to move out and then move back in.
- Danish family members came to visit for several days.
- I went to Denmark on vacation and ran into more illness in the family.
- My hobbies heated up.

Fortunately, we have this thing called Thanksgiving, that occupies some of the same social space that the Easter holidays do in Europe: A 4-day weekend where office workers go home to celebrate their family. Since I now live alone, this gives me an opportunity to sit down and reflect for some hours, keyboard in hand. So I will be releasing a few posts on themes that I have wanted to write about for a while.
