A Marathon Year

12/29/2014

0 Comments

 
2015 is going to be a marathon year for me.  My father has moved into assisted living, and is less able to support me financially. My body is expressing how stressful it's been to uproot myself from my long time Bay Area community, move east and be a caretaker for the past three years.  Now that my father has moved, we need to prepare the family house for sale, which means I have to get my house built. One way I will make up the income gap is to provide home stays for other environmentally ill people. 

I am working hard to finalize design and materials decisions, and am getting ready to launch my Indie Go Go fundraising campaign.  I am hoping to start building by summer.

So I will be researching and fundraising for the Vehicle, running a home stay business, finishing several books and getting them into print, and learning how to better market my self-published books, clearing my parents' house of 35 years of clutter, and taking care of my body and soul.

I've decided to think of myself as an athlete intraining for a really big event.  Not sure if it's along distance run, or a high altitude climb.
