[i’m a day late, so i’m a 100% going to backdate this post to yesterday, fyi.]
welcome to my blog’s 23rd birthday!
i thought i shut it down in 2020, but then stuff happened and i needed a safe place to share. so, i came home to this wee blog. as i’ve been doing since august 10, 2000.
i don’t really have much to day today. as i’ve already written here, it’s been a really bad couple of years – personally – in addition to all the universal bad going on for everyone. not to mention specific bad personal stuff happening to people i care greatly for. i kinda hate that the blog’s become Bummer Central. it used to be so fun and creative and hilarious (if i do say so myself). that’s just not the way i’ve been feeling since march 2020, though, so i guess it tracks.
i’m trying to do things which will fix that, though. i am now seeing a therapist because everyone needs therapy. i got my money house in order last year and things are going very well with that. so, those are positive changes i’m pleased to report.
i’m still sad and grieving my loved ones.
i’m still constantly worried about Rose’s health.
the world is still a dumpster fire.
but… but!
i am loved beyond what i deserve by some of the most amazing people i have been blessed to welcome into my life. thank you, dear reader, for you are part of that group, whether i know you well or not. ♥
