I’m planning ahead to the new year, and thinking about my goals. But before I get there, I want to do a review of the past year.

For health and fitness, I did a bunch of survival stuff early in the year, trying to basically hold the line against deterioriation. My leg wound in particular pushed me into fairly dark places mentally, and that’s saying something for year 2 of hellish isolation.

I blogged a lot about the wound care experience, and then later my attempts to boost my health in October with the BowFlex, etc. I didn’t make a ton of progress other than trying stuff out, and I’ll need to go further in 2022.

But I did get a bunch of stuff set up, like BowFlex, and a basic area for working out. I did not, however, figure out all my meds, still adjusting some stuff, and I haven’t found a new doctor yet. I also need to get going on using a UV light and setting up a sleep machine. Plus meditation, and even a weekend away by myself sometime, if the world ever approaches something normal.

I also still need to assemble a workbench and the exercise bike, set up a space for yoga, figure out tai chi videos. I had some “event” type things on my list this year but I got to none of them, as most of them would require leaving the house, which I did very little of this past year.

Overall, I would say the only accomplishments I had were the BowFlex and figuring out two workout routines (stretching and working out).
