It's 2025!

I've only got a couple more hours until New Year's Day is over here.
I sure hope the new year will be better than the last...though so far, it's not off to a great start. *sigh* It's not like 2023 was a picnic, but 2024? Very rough! I had 2 or 3 really bad months where I felt like I was running a marathon. Just exhausting! I'm still struggling with a lot (mental health-wise and real life-wise), but I hope I find some answers this year.

I'm also still hoping to get back to posting here on LJ more. There's no way I can return to my daily posts, but 2 or 3 times a week would be nice.

Here's wishing a good 2025 for all of us (though knowing how things are leaning, I'm not sure that's possible...). Let's just hope we have the strength to get through it, huh? Hugs to you all!

Merry Christmas!

Getting this post done a little early, just in case I don't have time later.

Wishing all who celebrate, a very Merry Christmas with good friends, family, wonderful food, fun times, and cherished memories.

Missed 2 more days of posting for NaBloPoMo 2024. Grr.
If you don't know what I'm talking about it's in this post: Cha-Cha-Cha-Cha-Changes! & NaBloPoMo 2024.

This is also a last call if anyone wants to join me in my Gilmore Girls re-watch.

Still posting at both LJ & DW.

Since we just had Halloween, how about some vampire!Dean?

Well, I'm off to a fine start with NaBloPoMo 2024, aren't I? Already missed the first day. Hey, I made no guarantees in my Cha-Cha-Cha-Cha-Changes! & NaBloPoMo 2024 post. But I'm here for Day 2! Hope November is starting well for everyone. :D

Cha-Cha-Cha-Cha-Changes! & NaBloPoMo 2024

Hey! I'm back! little-cutie-says-hello-smiley-emoticon
So sorry for the long silence of over 2 months. *sigh* It was NOT intentional at all.
Life, y'all. It's a crazy mess!

But I'm not going to let it stop me. Last week, I updated the look of this journal for Fall.
Very orangey, I know. LOL

And now...to hopefully get myself regularly posting here - I'm unofficially joining in on NaBloPoMo2024. I didn't fill out the form to officially join-in...I'm just doing this for all of you (and myself). Do I promise I'm going to post every day of November? I'll try, but I make no guarantees.

Feel free to join me, if you like. Check out the link below for more information.

BTW, the above image is not mine. It was on the email from iHanna: https://www.ihanna.nu/ .

In other news...I'm about to start my "usual" annual re-watch of Gilmore Girls. I normally would've started a month ago, but again...that darned "real life" getting in my way! Anyway, I was wondering if anyone wanted to join me in my re-watch? We wouldn't watch the episodes together (because scheduling is hard!) but we would agree to converse together (through email, messaging, whatever) about our thoughts of each episode plus post thoughts to our journals. It would be nice to watch 1 or 2 episodes per week. I'd like to start this coming Monday, Nov. 4th. Anyone up for it?

Merry Monday: Eric Robertson - Piano Hits (Full Album)

This is an old favorite album from the early 1980s (1982, to be exact) that we have on vinyl. Had a song going through my head overnight and sure enough it was from this album. This guy was really a good piano player and it's a shame his recordings weren't more popular. Anyway, if you like 80s music, this is an approximate hour well spent. Beautiful stuff!

Btw, this video of the album is not mine - just found it on YT.

Track Listing:
Chariots Of Fire
Endless Love
Baby James
Fame
Sunshine Love
Cavatina (Deer Hunter Theme)
The Homecoming
On Golden Pond
Music Box Dancer
Superman
9 To 5
"Spooked" On Classics (My note: This is a wild track! But fun!)
Arthur's Theme
The Seduction
Across The Sea
The Rose

My favorite tracks are: Endless Love, Sunshine Love, The Homecoming, On Golden Pond, Seduction (the song that was going through my head), and Across The Sea.
