LP Batéliere says bye bye

So here are some of the kids that I taught at LP Bateliere. I asked them to say goodbye. They are too much!

Good-bye Karla. Even though your posts were intended for others, I found your narration fascinating and the pictures were out of sight. This is the closest I will get to the Caribbean and have appreciated the opportunity to play the "fly on the wall." Thanks for sharing. Say hello to your folks for me.

2021: My Year in Music

Image
It took me getting Covid-19 to give me the margin I needed to actually bear down and complete this, 5 full months into the year.  I'm recovered, isolation is complete. I'm about to re-enter the world again.   I'm changing jobs, changing a lot of things, and trying to plan with little to no information required for planning.  But I'm leaning into the mystery and trying to enjoy the space I have for now, because time like this doesn't come around very often.   I have the benefit of extra time between the writing of this post and the selection of the songs.  I have been thinking about these songs for so long, it feels good to finally get the thoughts organized and out of me.  I finished up a big redesign on my apartment. I had a good streak going for most of the year where I spent the night of the first day of every month away from home.  So I explored some great new places and have a great new permanent space too!   A list of 20 songs...

2023: My Year in Music

Hello again! It's early in 2025 and I am trying to catch up.  2023 was an absolute blur.  I started the year with a new job and a big trip planned and that's about all I managed to do in 2023.  I onboarded, then, in March, I went to Antarctica! It was an incredible trip, and left surprisingly little down time.  After I got back from Antarctica it was full throttle on the job, working weekends at the winery, and I didn't come up for air until the end of the year.  Me on the Antarctic Continent This year's list is quite short as a result.  I didn't have a lot of time for reflection, I mainly just had my head down and charged through.  I didn't have the bandwidth to discover many new things with starting up counseling again, trying to learn a new job and ways of working, staying involved with my family and trying to be present in my relationships. But these are a few songs that landed well throughout the year.   The Angels - Am I Ever Gonna See Your ...

The stars were bright, Fernando (de Noronha)

I think on Sunday when I woke up I actually had a hangover from so much fun.  I only had one caipirinha at the bar during the game and had felt a cold coming on for the entirety of Saturday but just pushed on through because of all the amazing things that were happening. Saturday night it all caught up with me once I finally shut down and tried to give my body some rest.  I barely slept a wink and I dreamt in Cubism (can't really explain this further but I vividly remember that everything I dreamed looked like a Picasso painting) and felt a constant sense of struggle on Saturday night and Sunday morning I awoke bleary and feeling pretty terrible.  I took some medicine and powered up because I went through a lot of trouble to be able to go diving in Fernando de Noronha and I was NOT going to miss it.   Benji is also a certified diver and so we went together.  As we piled onto our boat we met another American and other people from around the world.  O...
