First some housekeeping:
I want to welcome Stwayne Keubricks Art Shop as a new follower – it is much appreciated. I also encourage my readers to check out the site at https://stwaynekeubrick.wordpress.com.
I also would like to thank those that visit this page. I do not say that lightly as I do value you all and your visits encourage me to continue on this path.
I promise to update you soon on the latest escapades of my move. The other shoe may have dropped but I am waiting to talk about it because I don’t want a domino effect to occur with my current house sale. Trying to keep that shit out of the ether for the moment 😁.
I am starting to hit the next wave of pandemic fatigue. I have been self-isolating a bit too much lately and it is starting to kick up my anxiety level a notch. When that happens, it starts to affect my sleep (and I love my sleep), which then affects my ability to think clearly and my mood when I write.
To counteract that today, I thought I would share some fun (and maybe interesting) facts about myself in an effort distract from the pandemic stress.
Fact 1: I am childless by choice (a topic for another blog) but I have a one wonderful niece and 2 wonderful nephews – 2 adults and 1 toddler. Quite frankly, I love being an aunt. I get the perks of spoiling them without the need to discipline them (mostly – I still respect their parents enough to follow the important rules). But as much as I love and adore the 3 of them, one thing I have never/will never do for them is change a diaper. I have spent 52 years on this planet never having the “pleasure” of changing any diaper and I plan to live the rest of my continuing on that path. And yes, I am proud of that fact 🤣🤣🤣.
Fact 2: I hold a BA in theater (1992) and an MS in Creativity and Innovation (1996). Yes, my master’s degree is real, and I received it from Buffalo State College, which is one of the first degree programs of this type. You can check them out here https://creativity.buffalostate.edu. I almost hesitate to say this given the fact that virtual classrooms and meeting are starting to annoy a lot of people, but they do have a distance learning program if you’re interested.
Fact 3: I have talked in the past about my beautifully crazy dog, but I don’t think I mentioned that she is the fourth sheltie I’ve had in 26 years and that I’ve had dogs steadily since 1995 – not one break. I also have had a horse for 14 years and she is as difficult today as she was day one (and I’ve loved her almost every day of every year 😁). I’ve caretaken animals longer than many parents of adult children – no wonder I’m exhausted.
Fact 4: I almost consistently type knkow instead of know and have for years without ever realizing it as I’m typing. I know (this came out correctly, probably because I was more attuned to it) that I do it and I still type it incorrectly. My fingers have a mind of their own, I think.
Fact 5: Last little fun fact – I have lived in Westminster Colorado (born and mostly raised as I like to say), Erie Pennsylvania, Buffalo New York, Las Vegas Nevada, Knoxville Tennessee, Richmond Kentucky, Pawleys Island South Carolina and Camden South Carolina. With that many locations, you would think I was in the military but no. I have had the opportunity to live in some interesting places, but I always will be a Coloradan at heart. If it just didn’t snow there, I’d go back in a heartbeat.
Those are a few things about me that some of you may or may not have known. And they may give you more insight into my blogs going forward.
As a further stress reliever, check out these cute animal videos.
Until next time… 💜
