Updates 2025
By: Jack Date: February 13, 2025, 12:17 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
If you've read 1, 2, 3 Punch, then you know I've been told to
get off my ass and get more involved with life.
In the past 5 years, I've lost several older family members,
dealing with a couple of other hard situations, some health
problems, and fairly serious depression .
Part of trying to be more active and involved will occur here
(with a bit of luck). I added a new section 'Updates 2025',
where I will be trying to update everyone on each of my kids and
other important people. I decided to do an entire new section
for it, just to make it easier to keep track.
HONESTY TIME - Losing the original forum was a huge blow to me
for a large number of reasons - the huge amount of time and
effort that had gone into it. all the friends I'd known there
(including some who are no longer with us), but also details.
I"ve always made it clear that there wasn't much I was treating
as 100% true, and this showed up occasionally in cases where I
got 'Curtis and Connor' mixed up (actually, the names I was
using here for the two boys). One of the things we lost was a
lot of the details. Because of that, if I say something
slightly wrong or that just doesn't sound right, it's probably
because of that. I don't remember what Van's full name was any
longer, so if I just call him Van, you'll have to accept my
apologies. As much as I have enjoyed sharing these stories and
events with you, I have always tried to maintain a certain
amount of privacy, or, at least, plausible deniability.
Please don't start new threads in that section. If you have
someone you're dying to know abuot, please send me a PM.
However, I will tell you that some of these are going to be much
harder on me than others, and I'll deal with those as I'm able.

Thanks, Kitty.
For the record, there haven't been any updates recently because
I'm just recovering from either a mild flu or a miserable cold.
I guess it could have even been Covid, now that I think about
it.
Anyway, once I'm completely back on my feet, I'm giong to have
to catch up a few things, then I'll try to get back to the
updates again.

You're welcome,
Believe me I get it. I haven't really been here in a couple
years.

I'm still not back to 100%, but I actually have a normal
appetite again, and I didn't waken hacking and coughing for a
half hour to clear my head and throat, so hopefully I'm getting
close. I've taken a full break from writing this past week or
so, but I'll be trying to get back into the groove now.

I guess I did have a flu or something. It hit so hard that I
ended up just taking a week off to recover - no trying to write
or anything.
The thing is, when I did start getting back to things, I had an
idea for a new series, which is going to be 12 chapters wrong.
I've written 11 chapters in the past 12 or so days, so I haven't
been doing much other writing. I expect the first chapter to be
posted on Wednesday.

And yes, Zyngaru is one of the two main people who keep me from
totally humiliating myself on a regular basis. Thanks, Z.
Thanks, Adric.
