Where did a year go....

Hard to believe that I was too depressed to make any entries for a whole year, but when I recovered from that, I was too busy catching up! Of course, I have probably never recovered from moving into this house almost 8 years ago! I become obsessed with the little things
such as my tiny garden, I plant, reconfigure, put in a raised bed, take out raised bed, fight drought, dig up to give away all the stuff my green thumb has encouraged. (If I were talentless at gardening, I would save a lot of time.)

(If I had talent at writing, I would save a lot of time, too! I did complete a picture book (a snarky one), but just one PB (with no illustration) will sell nowhere. 

I  became embroiled in friends' and family member's health issues, which basically took no time at all. The worries did take time because then I distracted myself by time-sucking means.
​
After being in the 1976 Daniel Morgan's riflemen group, I decided to attach myself to his Millwood VA place of business, which involved both the 2  10-day art shows and appearing in costume each Saturday.
I now go to New England more than in previous years (went 3 times this year) and hope to visit more states in 2024. Already getting a new sidesaddle skirt stitched!
