Alan – Sometimes those things “we want to get done” weigh us down emotionally and physically. Every couple years I assess my gazillion projects in various stages of completion and realize that some just aren’t that important anymore – then I delete or pitch them. It is a great feeling to lighten your load!!

So sorry about your mom, Alan. Losing a parent impacts us all greatly. And speaking as a mom, I would say “Hit the road Jack and don’t look back!”

Save travels!! Debbie

Thanks Helen, I am counting in meeting up and doing some crazy project in the future. Plus I want to eat some of those crazy meals you post on Instsgram, stuff I never even heard of before.

Alan, you’re an inspiration. I really admire you for the way you give your all to projects, but also have the guts to be true to yourself and move on when you feel the need. I was lucky enough to meet some of the #ds106 crew f2f for the first time back in June, and can imagine that it’s not the easiest decision to move on to pastures new – they’re awesome. Really looking forward to following your adventures, and I sincerely hope we get to meet f2f and possibly collaborate on some kind of project/thing, at some point (vague yes, but that’s the whole point yeah? Serendipity :)
