Oh wow... I was just noticing that my most recent post appears to be a Seasons Greetings from last year. Well, it's not surprising. This ol' blog doesn't get much attention -- not from me or from readers. But it's still one of the places I like to keep track of stuff.
I've been journaling since the 90s. I go through stretches where I'm very dedicated. And then I stumble through periods where the only thing I write in my journal is a list of stuff I need to do (which usually involves grading essays, teaching classes, and maybe some creative project).
It was interesting to read the last post, because 2025 has felt like more of the same -- which is a good and comforting thing, for the most part... The kids live out of state, so we don't get to see them on a regular basis -- but we did make a concerted effort to visit them, and those adroable grandkids!
Well, Cheri is calling... We're going to hang out and watch some Stephen Colbert while he's still on the air!
Merry Christmas!!!
