It’s Been a Hot Decade
Yeah. It’s been nearly that long. It has been a while.
Following my mother-in-law’s passing (2012) and my offspring’s inevitable emergence as the adults they would become (process ongoing), I joined the ranks of “women of a certain age who blog.” It seemed like the thing to do.
Obviously, it didn’t stick. My words meandered around the page. I was developing my conversational tone, but I had no purpose. “Clever” remains an adjective and what I needed was a verb. I’m happy to trade in all the extraneous vowels in my last name for one quality verb. Please and thank you.
Needless to say, life between then and now has been constant and unsettling. I no longer live where I lived (physically and metaphorically). I no longer do what I did, think what I thought. Things neglected are reaching critical mass. But more of that later.
Suffice to say, I am still here. I’ve been here all along. I make no promises other to say, “We’ll see what comes.”
If you’re curious about that, well, so am I.
