But the blog doesn’t. The management apologizes to those (two or three) kind souls who browse by here now and then, for the lack of new content lately.
The proprietor has been otherwise occupied. With her job. And her life. Moving up to a big life change. Living and working through a couple of big bad holiday blizzards.
Things are fine. I’m just not here much. I’ll be back.



Miss you Suz. Tell me about the big life change and how it is going.
My husband and I did a “BLC” in 05. Sold our house in Reno for mega bucks (at least to us), quit my job (yeah), sold almost everything we owned (except for artsie stuff), packed what was left up and put into storage, drove to Spokane, WA, looked around, bought a house (with mega bucks outright), bought new furniture and stuff for new/old house, drove back to Reno, packed up storage unit, drove back to Spokane and moved into new/old house, took classes in stained glass and quilting, began going to symphony and onward and upward.
I love our new life, we don’t know a soul here except for two neighbors and haven’t made much of an effort to find anyone else. Just the two of us retired and happy. We drove to Denver for Thanksgiving and to Reno for Christmas, visited kids and grandkids).
Yesterday (Jan 5th) we drove to Wenatchee, WA , went to an antique store there but the drive was really the important part. We talked, we laughed, we listened to NPR, we were silent. A great day!

Glad to know things are ok, Suz.

Noticed your absence, young lady. Extra effort will be required–once the BLC occurs (HUGE SMILE ; – ] )–to atone for your neglect.
Actually–as Susan in Spokane notes–once you ease into that imminent BLC, you can really do whatever the hell you want: post to blog, don’t post to blog; shower daily, don’t shower daily; get in the car and go somewhere, get in the car and go nowhere in particular. The world, as they say, becomes your clam. (Yes, I know, it’s “oyster,” but, see I did the BLC three years ago, and if I want to say clam instead of oyster, that’s what I’m gonna do!)
