Packing Hell

I always thought I had become a bit of a minimalist....the packing and purging of 7 years has proved me otherwise. I clearly have a problem with clothing. My goal is to fix this in the next year. In the mean time I have more bags to fill!

 This is only a small part of it. Getting it done one step at a time!

This year was meant to be a year of cleaning up my life and getting fitter. I was so excited to begin 39, and really just work on enjoying life and getting a bit more fit day by day. Then like life often does, my world got turned around.
I got laid off from my job and needed to find something new (I am lucky and was able to do so almost immediately). I needed to make some difficult decisions. Was it time to move on, and leave my home and community of nearly 7 years? Where did I want to go? Having years of experience under my belt in a pretty needed field (EFL teaching) and living in Asia it's pretty simply a matter of where do I want to go.
So I decided that I was going to move to China, and that is where I shall be headed. However, I decided to have a sabbatical first. So before August I am going to travel, and relax and explore, and walk, and experience life.
I still would like to be fit b4 forty, but now I want to ensure that the fitness is not just physical but mental as well.
So last day of January of the year 2018 I begin again...Here goes nothing.
