I could list all the excuses I have for not posting to this blog FOR FIVE YEARS, but I won't. Ok, so I'll list a few, but not all...
I've been busy and a lot as changed.
I met a guy. Actually I met "THE guy"...swoon.
I downsized and sold my house. That was huge. I got rid of PILES of crap and lots of stuff that was weighing me down physically, financially and spiritually.
I moved into a great apartment with a killer view of Nashville's skyline with THE guy who is a super terrific partner and my best friend forever. His name is Chris, which we thought would be weird, but it feels like the most natural thing ever. We laugh. A lot.
I had open heart surgery to remove a scary tumor near my heart. The tumor wasn't cancerous but the doctors found a different cancer. Surprise! Check out the link on the right for My Caring Bridge page. It helped me document my journey and remain sane.
Then I became a cancer survivor.
And now here we are. I've also done a lot of knitting, weaving, spinning, reading, painting, drawing, creating, and most importantly LAUGHING in the past five years.
I thought about changing the name of this blog, or starting over (again), but why? I'll just keep on with this one and maybe those who followed me years ago (looking at you, Liana) might continue to follow this renewed effort.
When I was dealing with my cancer diagnosis, surgery recovery, and chemo, I used Caring Bridge to blog about what I was feeling. As I wrote about my challenges I realized that I missed writing, and not the abbreviated style of writing that's so prevalent in social media. Sure, I'll still post photos on Instagram and I have a couple private groups on Facebook where my family gathers to share pictures and other stuff the general public doesn't need to view.
So with that said, this blog won't be geared toward fiber only, it'll contain all sorts of stuff based on the whim of the moment.
