I struggle with the REAL intent of keeping a blog...


 Why?  Why do I want to put my personal opinions, hopes, goals, health education, family goings-on... what have you, out for all the world to see (not that really anyone knows I started posting on a blog again... and I'm finery with that)?  Until very recently I kept this blog to myself (almost an entire year) for fear of getting caught up in the whole "who posted what" and "who reads whose" blog.  Then, a friend told me that at the end of a year, if you order (and pay...a very minimal fee), there are certain printing companies who will print up in book form everything you posted on your blog for that year... the one real reason why I decided to continue this since I've been so horrible at journaling the past several years.  Who knows, maybe I'll set it back to private again... for only my eyes to see.  I just wanted to toss this thought out there.  Blogs are a wonderful way for keeping up with friends and family, learning new ideas and ways of doing things, but I also don't want this to become an obsession.

Playing an old game.....

..... Ally and I. It happened as we were driving down Ustick Rd. the other day and saw a car with a Hawaii license plate.... then 20 seconds later Connecticut and Pennsylvania.  Now, if you've never been on Ustick Rd, you might not understand the significance of that. Ally got Alaska yesterday. Guess I better get out more.

Turning the full-of-stuff-bins in my garage into an etsy store

It's time. I've been chattting this up for years.... YEARS. Been cleaning out my garage. Getting rid of soo soo much. Have sold a ton of stuff and donated lots. But there's still so much fabric, paint, wood, floral supplies, paper, jewelry making stuff... you name it, it's out there. I even have friends that will call up sometimes and ask if they can "come shop in my garage".  I dare not even put a round-about dollar tag on it all. The only way I can begin to justify it is by creating. Finally putting it all to some kind of use. Sooo, there it is. And here I go. If I think something might be fun for someone else to try I'll blog about it with instructions and photos and such. It feels weird saying that because like most people, there's WAY more I can be taught than I could ever teach others. Anyway. See ya out there!

New normal

Virus's, masks, hand sanitizer, staying home, conspiracy theories, hoarding, facetiming, toilet paper shortage, the worst of incompetency from the very highest level, gaslighting, so much blind and deafness (though, not literally), smokescreens, bold-face lies accepted without explanation.... the list goes on and on. First and foremost though, this is nothing to be made light of. The meme's were a good laugh in the beginning, but they're stale and old now.   People are suffering, people are sick, people are dying.  Medical workers all over the world are putting their lives at great risk everyday, working to save and protect so many.   Grocery and essential store workers, truck drivers and delivery people are making sure store shelves are stocked so we have what we need. It's hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel.  Until there's a vaccine there isn't much "finality" in sight. People.  Oh, the people.  In so many ways huma...
