Happy Thanksgiving (next week)!!
To start, apparently, Bublup, the site which I was storing my graphics, decided to move from free storage to paid, so I closed my account. My graphics page is gone for now. While I understand Bublup’s decision, I’m not going to pay for something that is simply basic storage at this point. If I choose to reupload my graphics elsewhere, I will restore the page. Thank you to those who did visit the graphics page, as few as there were, but honestly the page was more for me. Nostalgia, if you will. Sentimentality increases with age. If I had a dime for all the times I’ve spotted a “Do You Remember” Instagram post or video of a toy I had as a child and sighed, I would be a millionaire. Anyway, I digress.
A few changes have happened since my last post. Mostly, my health has been a bit up and down – blood pressure, thyroid, gastroparesis, and back problems are a daily thing now. Can’t say every day is bad because it’s not. Most days are pretty good, especially in warmer weather. But Fall being my favorite time of year, I love to see it coming, but hate what it does to my body. I think most of us in our 50’s + are going through this, but we do what we can to go forward. GO GEN X!
I do still get to do some basic writing or adding to old writing projects. Wish I could do more, but I’m busy working and tag teaming with the hubs to care for my Mom (dementia), so my days can get a bit busy. Graphics are still my creative outlet when stressed and it’s an added bonus that part of my job surrounds graphic design, web site management, etc, which is my thing. Doing what I love, alongside great people…can’t get much better. A busy, stressful environment at times, but rewarding.
Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving, Christmas & New Years.
May 2024 bring all of us some needed peace. God bless!
That's great Mom...but I have pie.
