Real life vs. blogging

 What am I doing all this blogging for, anyway?

Perhaps a coping mechanism to avoid a). current events, b). my chores that always need doing or c). my problems which have no solutions, like medical problems that might also be mental. I still am waiting for a neurological consult to see if I'm exhibiting signs of dementia....as well as my shaky finger problem.

I think at one point, how about I  copy my blogs all into one volume (of course digital) and there are these different chapters, like each of my blogs.

Then save it on one of those nice thumb drives that have at least 50 g of memory. That should be enough for the 20 or so years of multiple blogs.

Maybe I'll save the family tree on a separate one.

So I need to be considering my descendants...who might someday be interested in these daily quips.

Imagine if an ancestor could have left all kinds of information for me to find. A very great library book, I think.

Currently I have enjoyed looking on line to find information about affordable housing in Colorado so I could move and live near my son and his wife. I forget the limitations I am currently dealing with. Today I didn't do any more research, but did the laundry. Now it is waiting to be folded and hung up. Lots of clothes over three weeks worth, plus the bed needs to be made with clean sheets.

And a few pieces aren't quite dry, so I should hang them on the shower rod. So now to enjoy real life. I also baked a frozen Dutch apple pie, so had a slice when it was still warm...and it kind of fell apart. But it still tasted great. My favorite desert.

Now on to the tending of fabrics in my life...

That's sort of why I started my blog. I know almost nothing about the daily lives of those who preceded me so my blog is just that for those who come after and are interested. I intended to get every year published in book form. Have not done that and only got the first two years in digital form. Oh well.
