So this was my debut post here at WP, 8 years ago, October 19, 2011!
…and it sure has been a fortunate virtual journey all these years, for which I am grateful to each and every friend I’ve made here.
May you all enjoy good fortune wherever life takes you!

Ah, like most (I think) it was a lonely beginning, so I doubt we would have met on that day… But …way back we go, surely! I’ll check too, to see! 😉

Eight years ago… I remember it well. It was a very dark time. The world seemed bleak, hopeless. I was lying in the gutter, wondering if I should get up and put another coin in the parking meter, when a complete stranger came up to me– well, down to me, actually– and shoved an iPad in my hands and cried: “Check this out, you poor wino!!”
It was… Art Towards A Happy Day. A yellow half-and-half tree. It filled me with hope, and the most inexplicable happiness. It changed my life… I’m still lying in the gutter, but now there’s a big smile on my face. 🍨😋
