Looking at now and the immediate future…
1) On June 13, 2026, our son became a Dr. He walked across the stage to get his PhD. We were and are so proud! Our daughter-in-law finished her residency and is now a fully credentialed medical doctor.
2) Our middle son recently started a new job doing his craft for a software company that focuses on insurance risk management.
3) Our daughter and her husband moved from Dallas to Portland, Oregon. They are starting a new life there.
Of course, we’re very proud of our kids and our son-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Looking back…
When I first started blogging, I posted five days a week! Now I’m down to a few times a year.
I tapered off, since I just don’t have the bandwidth to post very often. And the rewards aren’t as big as they used to be – few people blog anymore, so it’s putting a lot of effort into something a tiny number of humans see.
I never chased numbers with this website. For many years, the experts have said you need to focus on a niche to get traffic from search engines. I never wanted to make this into a money-making thing but rather keep it an artistic expression of myself.
And few people resonate with the interests that make me uniquely me… except you, who are reading this.
