I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.

Merit Badge in Happy New Year
[Click For More Info]

Hello,someone has nominated you to receive a merit badge as part of my new year's giveaway. May this coming year bring you health, wealth and happiness. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Happy New Year


Thank-you, Adherennium Author Icon.

I can save this for when my new year arrives March 20th. *Bigsmile*

K *HeartO*

What's also nice about Naw Ruz is that it arrives at sunset not the middle of the night.

Sometime during 2022 I'll have to make it clear who I am... again, again, and over again.

In the Olden Times... we knew each other by reading each other's blogs and commenting and even correcting misperceptions. I remember responding to AL Author Icon with male pronouns. Anna-Lisa and I laughed because folks here often used female pronouns for me. *Bigsmile* At least she knew how to pronounce Kåre. It's a not-so-common name in Sweden and Norway. The Skåne dialect's pronunciation however...

So I commented on zwisis's blog entry "Invalid EntryOpen in new Window. and even got a shout out from vivacious.

Anna Lisa, Sarah, Andra... so many Blogvillians including alfred booth, wanbli ska, Scottiegazelle, Douger, Iowegian Skye susanL, asymmetrical, Voxxylady, Nada, Nikola~Living the Dog Mom Life, scarlett_o_h and Mavis Moog would share our lives. Alas David McClain is with us no more (March, 2021, cancer).

I was using "L'aura del CampoOpen in new Window. (now/still mostly poetry NOVAcatmando) and "Enga mellom fjellaOpen in new Window. (now mostly prose) way back when. Rainbowapple was one of the few who read my more personal blog back then. I could've written "Humpty Dumpty in a Land-of-Magical-ThinkingOpen in new Window. many a day these past 10+ years.

Remember those days Robert Waltz, Fivesixer?

I'm waxing nostalgic; but, we knew each other better back-in-the-day.

2021: I may have had a mild brush with covid end of November. I barely saw anyone. Bri was a godsend... to us all. Angie, Travis, Laxmi and Billie Jo got me through the year. I did not get out of the city limits of Missoula. My big outings were the Iris gardens and my J&J shot in April. I sent a few postcards, made a few calls. Wrote some... in spurts. Read 400+ blog entries in November.

2022: No real goals. My favorite number is 22 so I'm hoping the year doesn't spoil that. I 'm on track to have written something 1/day by New Year 179 on March 20th. Travel is a mirage.

What hasn't changed in 16 years at WDC is my depression. I'm not depressed every day. It dissipates when I'm active, especially when traveling. But... I write (too much) when I'm depressed or upset so my blog entries seem darker than my life really is.
