An Anniversary I Didn't Want to Have

To my continuing dismay, it's been a full year since I last held a day job. A disturbing personal record, and one I hope won't go much further, Pandemic or not. I am still actively seeking work as of this morning, not waiting for word on the more promising leads. I would like to make more time for practice with various pieces of software I consider essential for keeping the relevant skills "alive" and "active", despite the obligations I have on several other fronts.

Hope as a Weapon to Motivate Action

Listening to this as I look for the next job:
