*steps up to podium and taps the microphone* is this thing on?

I've been staring at this 'post an entry' page for a while, most of the afternoon actually, trying to figure out what to write. I was tempted to abandon this journal and start a whole new one but I find I'm still attached to this one. And so here I am, dusting off the cobwebs and thinking about giving it a fresh coat of paint

The world has definitely changed since my last post but thankfully, the internet's capacity for cat videos remains boundless. Most importantly, I still have my Jack and my Lucy - and we're all alive, we're all healthy. A little older, a little greyer, and with a few more wrinkles, but still no wiser.

I'm not entirely sure how to return to the world of blogging after such a long break. Is blogging still a thing? Is anyone still here? Where do I even start to begin? The beauty of a blog, I suppose, is that it's a blank canvas. It's a chance to connect, to share, and to learn.

So welcome! Grab a virtual cup of coffee (or beverage of choice), some tasty baked goods, and settle in

Still here, still writing. Good to see you back :)

Thank you, good to see you too - how have things been with you?

I finally have a little job, after several years. Cat has been poorly recently - nothing serious we hope. We're fine otherwise ;)

Congratulations on the job - what are you doing now? I ended up retiring early in 2021 and have been thoroughly enjoying being a lady of leisure!

Hello, I'm still here. :)

Hello! Good to see you too - how have things been with you?

Good! I have a job I love (mostly, not right now though...), I've had a weirdly (for the UK) quick and positive experience getting medical transition started, my old dog is still with us and doing well despite a scary few months last year, and my boyfriend and I are celebrating our anniversary on Friday.

That all sounds like a (mostly)really positive growth-filled time for you - I'm really glad to hear it. And Happy anniversary for Friday!

Thanks! it does feel like a lot, when I say it all at once... :)

Yep, still here! :) Good to see you again!

Just write about whatever you want to, daily events, or just thoughts, what books you've read or movies watched, or you know, whatever you like. It's your space and you can do what you want! I'm sure it will be interesting no matter what.

Good to see you too - how have you been?

I think I'll find a 30 day meme for April, to get me back into the habit of writing, try to re-find my voice and get used to putting myself out there again.

Hello again! Glad to see you back and contemplating what to potentially post. (Anything you want. Which is sometimes the hard part.)

Hello, nice to see you again - how have you been?

The 'anything I want' is the hard part. I'm hoping as I get back into things, ideas will come to me again - it's all a matter of practice and they did previously. If not, I'll find one of those 30 day memes to post

I continue apace. Job, people, finding out new and exciting things about how my body has decided to handle stressful situations. Things are not yet optimized, but I suspect they will not be for a very long time. And I'm the mean time, I'm trying to enjoy life as I experience it.
