Retrospective: The First Year

June 11, 2025

As I write this, I am in the middle of creating this website. This includes re-creating a blog which my husband wrote, and as I re-read his first post (July 20, 2007) I realized that it referred to the first blog I wrote, about my experiences embarking on a career change as a jewelry artist and first-time exhibitor at a major art show.

Although my original blog is long gone, I found a document where I had saved my posts, and after entering the black-hole-time-warp-space-vortex of memory by starting to re-read it, I thought “hey, this is worth publishing on my new website.” At least, I think so.

“The First Year” can be read on my “Memoir, Musing, and Other Stuff” page.
