0.000 HBDShaking the Rust Out!
<br> Prior to this past year I think the longest I went without posting could be counted in days. After over a year I'm finding it difficult to shake off the rust, but I know the only way to do it is to Do it, so here goes. <br> @ryivhnn asked how I've been in this long gap. Since the last time I posted prior to yesterday was at the very beginning of Covid, I imagine I'm not so different than most when I say it's been a roller coaster ride...though not in the Wheeee, having so much fun sense, more the poorly maintained, rattly tracks that has you thinking "Get me off this thing!" Ha. <br> I'm sure there are many people posting about the craziness of the last year, I don't suppose it's necessary for me to get into it other than to say I'm over all the propaganda, division, confusion and fear. I was not shocked by the corrupt government and media, I was, however, a little taken aback by how easily people around me were manipulated. Okay more than a little- a lot, astonished by it in fact. I definitely wonder if this is far more about a psychological experiment than any other conspiracy thought out there- or perhaps that's just a perk for those running the show, who knows. <br> What I've recently been asking myself- "What does it have to do with me?" Or less politely "What the fuck does it have to do with me?" And this question isn't just about the big C or the big V or the facial security blankets- it's about everything. If I can't answer that with something personal as well as the follow up of something productive I can personally do about it, than I can no longer let it take up any of my headspace- for the most part anyway. <br> Basically, I'm opting out of the screenplay that I had no part in writing. Endeavoring to remember why this life is good; what would make me want to be here. This has never been much of a struggle for me in the past, so that alone is new. But maybe not necessarily bad. In a way I took so much for granted and this allows me to truly appreciate those things that make life grand. <br> Topping the list (next to my awesome family) is the beauty of nature. I was fortunate enough to lease 20 acres in the finger lakes national forest for the second year in a row, and also acquire a camper to more fully enjoy it. <br>  <br>  <br>  <br> And I also happen to live in a truly beautiful area, surrounded by lakes and waterfalls, so there's definitely that! <br>  <br>  <br>  <br>  <br> <br> *Oh, and I should probably mention, that while much of the world was languishing in their abodes, we still did a whole lot of traveling. To South Dakota and Sturgis, to the Carolinas on a few different occasions, and Tennessee. But I'll share some of that with you on another post. This should do for today ;0)* <h2>Glad to be back with all of you awesome peeps!!</h2> <br>
