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.

Retroblogging: Serenity NOW!

Besides our deck, this was one of our most favorite places on the ship. But, it was hard to find some empty chairs when all the other adults were also trying to find serenity. (Also note to designers: do not put the serenity lounger over the kids area and/or near the entrance to the pool slide - and turn down the incessant music a decibel or two. Thanks, a cranky adult.)
 
 
The Serenity Deck at sunset was beautiful, but it was seriously windy.
 
 I know! A photo. What the heck? 
I was so relaxed I took a selfie (of my double chins) of this hair-raising, wind-swept vacation  return day at day.
No, thank YOU!
