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.

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...

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.

Love languages

http://www.5lovelanguages.com/profile/ I've always known the love language my children speak.... since they were little. Rob took me a bit longer. I know my parents languages and lately I've been thinking much more about my siblings, Rob's siblings, and my dearest friends. It's taken years to figure out which one I am..... since it's been kind of a tie between three.... but recently, it finally happened. And although it's one I'm not super pleased about, it is me. It's what makes me feel secure and safe and loved. And just because someone doesn't show me love in this certain way (because obviously we all have our own language), it doesn't mean I'm not going to have a connection with them. It just means that in my deeply closest, most personal and intimately emotional relationships, this area is what does it for my heart.... and it's how my heart gives and shows it to others.
