Whoops

 I did not mean to drop off the face of the earth! 

The Orange Project that I have mentioned a few times before, was in high drive throughout the month of February -- occupying SO MUCH mental space, that there was barely room for anything else at all. Nearly all other occupations fell by the wayside; I could barely manage household tasks, Work, self care. And then it finished on March first, and we promptly rolled into several family events in a row, and then I tried to catch up on everything I'd neglected, and NOW HERE WE ARE. 

Everything's fine (thank goodness) with the people I love. On the other hand, the whole political situation of the US (and various countries into which the US has inserted itself without authorization) is a Flaming Dumpster Fire. I read the news with one eye and my head half turned away, alternatively filled with rage and with sorrow and dread. 

I've combed back through my photos over the past two months (it truly is embarrassing that I've neglected the Blog for so long), and there are a few highlights that I'd like to to mention here. I'll take it one item at a time until we are caught up. I'm going to work hard to get back Writing again, because Writing is good for me, and I need to do more things that are good for me. 

So, hello, gentle readers, and thank you for your patience. I hope that this time of quiescence is over.

 Let us start our journey together again.
