Several times throughout my life I have tried to keep a handwritten journal. tried in high school, stopped after a few months. tried many times, perhaps twice a year to keep one in college. I did successfully when I was taking a creative writing class and it lasted awhile afterwards but finally stopped. And again after my college relationship ended really bad about 6 months after I graduated college. it was mostly poetry, some better than others but I stopped sometime after as well. Tried the at the start of each of the past two years and yet again, it has not stuck. I do not even do regular updates on here except T-Shirt Tuesday posts but do they really count. I received a really nice journal from a good friend of mine for Christmas and the entries lasted regularly through most of January and slowed off in February and have all but stopped now in March. Maybe I should try one of those apps that make learning a habit into a game like HabitRPG . Cannot hurt to try it I guess.
My mother's cancer came back. Same type as before. She started chemo on Monday. She has it for 2 straight days then off a month then back for two days. He doctor says it will not be as harsh as last time. We shall see. So far no side effects have showed up but it is early.
Waiting for Spring to arrive. Ice or snow or cold rain on average once a week since January. We have had some 70s but few and far between. All that said, I have hiked 30 miles since the beginning of the year.
