PROGRAMMING NOTE from the Author and Archivist


So obviously I just stopped blogging on this platform. I'll get back to it eventually. Or not. I'm taking a break from all social media. It seemed necessary for my mental health.

The last few years have been busy and … challenging:

- 2015 Happened.
- 2016 Let's call it The Lost Year. (Obviously words failed me.)
- 2017 about broke me. Literally. Mentally.
- 2018 was ridiculous, proving 2017 was just a warm up. (Good thing I was already broken so it couldn't hurt as much.#2018TrashCanFire I thought things were going okay, but maybe not?)

- 2019 was such a blur. I know there were highlights, but then stuff happened and carried into the next year...

- And then in March#2020 really took a turn. Who can even categorize 2020? Do we dare?


I kinda want a do-over of some of the last few years. But life doesn’t work that way.


So for now, I'm hunkering down. Regrouping. Trying to stay safe and sort some stuff out.


Stay safe everyone. Stay well.

Summer Fridays 2009 - Part Fourth

My Fourth of July at Caramoor was filled with flowers, friends, and fireworks.

As I was watching the fireworks, I remembered that the little toy camera shoots video! (Sometimes Auntie Nettie is a little slow...) I present here, then, my first attempts to use the editing software on the computer, and my first YouTube video! (Please to excuse the loud editorial comment mid-way through the shoot. We were very close to the fireworks and it was loud!)


If you must mock (ahem, BRO!, ahem), the professional's version can be found here!
