Pink Sneakers on the Go

 The countdown has officially begun.

It’s a stampede out there, or would be, if we were not all hunkered down at home, sheltering from the rain of 2020.  Safe in our lockdown place, we grew to embrace an entirely new space.  Working from home became the new norm.  Zooming from room to room now part of the daily routine.  A hop around the globe in minutes time, connecting with loved ones far and near.  A huddle with memories in lieu of hugs would just have to suffice.  Who ever imagined that cuddles and entwines would be so treasured and rare?

Hindsight, of course, is 2020.

Once again, I’ve unintentionally veered off track.  Typical.  It’s been that type of year.  The scuttle is real.   The hunt for 2021 agendas is on and it’s a marathon of a sprint to secure that coveted diary.  Hourglasses, calendars and almanacs all lined up in a row.  There are truckloads of lemons of malfunctioning 2020 agendas all piled up in the scrapyard of yesteryear.  It’s immensely satisfying, not to mention, gratifying, to finally kick those Chronicles of International Disaster to the rubbish, where they now fester and wait their turn for curb side pickup.

Hallelujah and Welcome 2021! 

As you might have guessed, dear reader, the agenda for this week’s blog post was none other than keeping up with Time, hence my delight to reveal this Year’s musings of heralding in the light.

Pencils sharpened, quills dipped in inspirational ink, 365 days of blank pages await…

The hope of tomorrow is a dawn that has just traversed the path of midnight. 

Let the healing begin.

Next post:  In two or three weeks, sometime the w/o January 10^th or 17^th, perhaps a tad earlier.  No one knows.  The Quarantine Series blog posts of 2020 have been retired (for the time being but will still re-appear from time to time) and have been replaced with the Scribbling Towards the Light Chronicles.  Stay tuned for another year of reflection, contemplation, hope and gratitude.  All, of course, generously sprinkled with a touch of much needed laughter and humour (where applicable).  

Stay home, stay safe and catch up with your reading!
