Just a  quote I came across that I want to keep:

Let us, then be up and doing
with a heart for any fate;
still achieving, still pursuing
learn to labor and to wait.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Where have we been?  What have we been doing?

Moving to our very own house--with a yard and trees!

Planting apple trees (not me, but kids and Dad).

Cooking boulders (not me, Tiny).

Bobbing for apples and loosing teeth (Mowg lost two front teeth in two days).

Letting/helping a baby grow  (Me!).

Driving to appointments (lots of driving).

It doesn't look like much, but it all takes a lot of time.  I haven't forgotten this space, just temporarily misplaced it--or at least time for it.
