More from Mike Gold - I wasn't sure if I was going to leave this on the blog - but, here is is, still Dec 2, with my new process of writing the blog posts first and then adding an envelope. I've only written 4 of the 13 that I need. I've also shared that my brain restoration has hit a plateau. So, my current plan is to write stuff like this to myself so that I can see how I feel in a couple weeks when this pops up.
I have read in a variety of places that journaling is a good way to cope with all kinds of issues. It struck me that I could dovetail journaling with the blog. I'll keep adding envelopes and a few random thoughts about artwork. But, art might be on the back burner for a while.

Now it is Dec 8th and I am adding envelopes to pre-written blog posts. There is no rhyme or reason to which envelopes get added to which blurbs. I just go straight down the list. There is also no rhyme or reason to whether the envelope is at the top or the bottom.
I deeply regret this pointless drivel, but it might be working its way into something that has more to offer.
One of the perks of living in Chicago is that if you need to go on a trip, you can just leave the kids with Nanna and go stay at a hotel downtown. It takes 20 minutes to get there and since you have not been there in a couple years, you feel like you are on a mini vacation. So far, I have not been bamboozled. They tried. They wanted to open their advent calendars on the evening before. Nanna was born at night, but not LAST night.
"I was born at night ..." is one of my favorite sayings! Even if it's a lie because I was born in the afternoon :) I love your meandering, informal, yet informational style of the blog. No need to ever apologize!
