1153
R. Linda:
As you may have noticed, there are 10 stories on the blog. I took the rest off, because it was getting rather difficult to maintain 1153 stories. I also wasn't getting much in the way of comments of late, but the silent readership has been "reading," so I kept everything intact for them. However, I decided to eliminate most of the bulk, as I noticed no one seemed to notice the disappearing act, but a few "followers" who wrote me privately that they were upset I was purging the blog and said they understood the why of it, but...
Going through the blog from start to present, I realised how much not only me life but life in general has changed. At the start, the stories are pretty carefree and fun, but as the pandemic hit, they took on a new, more real and worrisome tone, and, up to now, a slightly chaotic tone has crept in. Since I feel I cannot give you, my followers and readers, the carefree and fun experience which was me purpose, it's best to possibly close the blog forever.
I was told I shouldn't do that, but to continue to chronicle what silliness I could find in such tumultuous times for the sanity of some, who say they enjoy the antics of the O'Sullivan family and friends. I must think this over. The stories of recent date have become less and less frequent. I think that will continue, or perhaps it will pick up; I simply don't know right now.
I have a lot of thinking to do. I have not made a decision one way or the other, but I will let you know what I decide.
