Describe a significant experience that has happened in the past year. How did it affect you? Are you grateful? Relieved? Resentful? Inspired?
Laid off for the first time ever. Stressed. Afraid. Because my husband has been out of work for over a year we’ve gone through our emergency fund, and because he’s mentally unstable, unwilling to find alternate work, newly diagnosed ADHD and autistic things are not great.
January started off with husband being suicidal, my birthday, on which my sister died, the same day as his grandmothers 100th birthday
Having to leave and miss the final shmoocon because husband couldn't hold his shit together for 3 days
February - Gallifrey One, to find out they are winding down. All good things come to an end.
March - Gave a talk at BSides Reykjavik (Iceland) with my mom and husband, and got to see Kat - very much enjoyed iceland
Went to D&D in a castle, a great time, and visited Peter
April - Visited Japan for star wars celebration and end of cherry blossom season, we missed most of the cherry blossoms and i would have done much more tea stuff if not having my husband with me
BSides SF & RSA
June
Gartner conference
August - Hacker Summer Camp
Ran the last stand alone TDI event for at least a year, skytalks, and TDI @ DEF CON - busy but good
Also had a gathering at the halloween suite at the westgate hotel
Finished with the traditional cabana day
Sadly one of our friends got RIF’d at the event
Came home and then went on a disney cruise with mom and brandon and heath and husband which was less than magical
September
Laid off
Prepped for an ran BSides Edmonton which went well
But now i’m not being as effective or useful as I need to be.
