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.

Paddling -- Adrift at Sea for a bit

Please pardon a brief blogging pause.

I'm going to let this drift on life's currents for a while while I paddle around and try to get my true bearing.
Sand Hollow State Park, January 2012

There's too much noise due to the rough surf, and there are some minor swells that need to be watched. Right now, I can't hear my Navigator's voice through all the din to find my way to the right shore. I need to listen -- so can I find my own way to a safe port, and then be a life preserver, in turn, for others out to a stormy sea.
Avalon Shore, March 2012

All will be well. I just have to find the right beacon.Newport Light, March 2009


I'll be back surfing the 'Net before you know it.
