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.

Update: Kute Kids 'Kaus - Idaho Crew

With thanks to Grumpa for grabbing these off the sib's social media, so I can collect them and share all at once:

May 2015


Quoth Christina: Finally got the fire pit out for the summer! The kids actually ate the s'mores this year.
June 2015

Visiting Utah to hang out with their cousins from Heber and maternal grandparents
A rarity in our family, but not in others, a gathering of the maternal family tree and branches

Quoth Christina: Fun times at the science center today!
 Pool time!
 Quoth Christina: They wanted to all sleep together!

July 2015

Quoth Grumpa? Christina?: Dad is away to cheese head paddlesports convention so mice will play.
Splash pad fun times
Quoth Christina: We had a great time bowling today! 
We were even lucky enough to have Grandpa Ben and Grandma Virginia with us too!
  Quoth Grumpa: Christina posted the following pictures from their day at the park and lake Friday. 
J took a day off work and headed the family off for a day together.
Quoth Christina: We had a beautiful day playing in Coeur D’Alene.
It's been 1 year, 5 months, a few weeks, and a handful of days since I've seen this crew in person. 
In two days I will FINALLY be on my way to see them.

I can't wait. But I am SO SO SO tired!
Festival Fatigue is real.
