A Long Gap (Again)
It has been a long time since I posted anything here. 2025 was an expectedly tough year. More than half of it was spent worrying about the German KiTa system. It took till August or so for things to stabilize. Then work decided to give a kick in the teeth with stocks plummeting and company deciding to start layoffs. I escaped the cut but there was a full quarter of uncertainty. Definitely not a year I would be interested in repeating.
2026 has been less stressful so far. Time has flown though. One moment we were preparing for our trip to India to celebrate the new year (and spend the rest of the month there) and the next moment it is already August. I have been a dull boy for most of the year unfortunately. Football was a massive bummer with Liverpool being so catastrophically bad. I have been whiling my time away on RoyalRoad etc reading mostly trash stories. One random moment I realised that I am nearing my 40s and I am no longer sure what I am interested in. Is this the famous mid-life crisis? That awful realization did wake me up a bit and I decided to try the things I used to like.
I hope my next post is more positive.
'Til Later
