For 2021, I chose the word “Basic” as my focus for the year. It was a good year to focus on the Apostles’ Creed and be reminded of the basics of my faith.
Like 2020, I worked from home all of 2021. In fact, I haven’t returned to my office at the Johnson Space Center campus since March 2020! I’ve also traveled far less than in the past. In 2018 & 2019, I traveled once per month. For the last two years, I’ve traveled twice each year. That helps from a family perspective—I don’t miss the boys’ games and events. However, that leaves less time to read, as I completed 22 books in 2021–down 33% from a year ago. Fortunately, I have plenty of summaries available for my blog in 2022.
As our Pastor for Adult Ministries Dr. Garet Robinson encouraged, we’re “starting new in 2022.” Look for our family’s one-word focus tomorrow, and keep shooting for the stars!
