I was deleting spam comments on my blog in September and figured I should start posting regularly because it had been almost a month since then. I thought I might even start posting more often. Let’s see about posting monthly first and go from there. Hmm, I might add that as a calendar reminder… forgetfulness is a thing.

Well, surprise, surprise, I started this post to be posted at the beginning of October, stepped away to do something else, and promptly forgot. So, instead, it looks like I’m doing a quarterly thing. At least this year. Maybe I’ll see about a New Year’s resolution to post monthly. I got it scheduled on my calendar, though. I’ve got New Year’s Eve through the 4th of January when I’ve “scheduled for” January’s post. We’ll see if I can actually get the post made and in the queue to post the first Sunday of the month. 😉

I will definitely need to schedule a post for February as I will be out of the country on a 7-day cruise on the 1st, which is the first Sunday in February. We’ll see how this goes. I might have to move the post to the second Sunday. We’ll see.

Hard to believe it’s December already. The various end-of-year holidays are upon us. Yule is next Sunday, and Christmas is the following Thursday. The family is doing a Christmas exchange this year. This is the first time we are doing this; it should be interesting. In not too many days, it will be next year. The last quarter of the year feels like it’s over in a flash.

I was planning to put out some writings from Goodreads that I wrote over a decade ago. That didn’t happen for sure. I edited some this year, but I need to do more. The creative juices for fresh stories, while there in the background, have not flowed to the electronic paper yet. I’ve had some medical stuff this year, and the stress of work and family is not conducive to writing. Nothing new there, but I had hoped this was the year I would get some material published. Here’s hoping that I will be able to next year.

I want to wish everyone a happy holidays, whatever your celebration looks like. Enjoy any time off with friends and family and we’ll see you next year!
