    I’m doing pretty good right now, despite the state of the world and my country (U.S.). I have a house I bought with my wife like 5 months before COVID happened, so really lucky with that timing because the interest rate is still pretty good. We have a little girl in preschool, she’s awesome and a total sweetheart.

    I still struggle with depression though. I spent the better part of a decade getting blackout drunk every night before I met the woman that would become my wife. She helped me care enough about myself to quit and I am almost 2 years sober now. But I lost pretty much all of my friends because of the drinking so I’m trying to figure out some hobbies to get into and try making new ones, but it’s scary.

    So yeah, that’s where I’m at more or less.
