These are based on my Instagrams throughout the summer.
I will be blogging again very soon! I have finally gotten over my blog blahs and have a lot to share with you! I have also downloaded the CLASSIC EDITOR plugin so I no longer have to try and deal with the new Wordpress blocks, which I HATED!
Since I’m not fully back to “blogging mode” yet, despite working on projects [albeit, at a VERY slow pace!] I’ll share my Instagram shots from the Spring. Happy Spring everyone, and I hope you’re all enjoying Summer so far! It started off so cold and rainy, and now it’s WAYTOOCRAZYHOT! …
It’s been so windy, cold, rainy, and dreary for the past 2 months that I wanted to share the random photos I took this past summer as I took walks through Ipswich. It’s nice to remember the flowers and river and beautiful late afternoon light.
I haven’t posted much this year. Mostly because instead of trying to get higher readership by posting every week, or twice a week even, I decided to only post when I had something worthwhile to say. Or a completed project to share with you. So here is an update for the last few months, using my Instagram photos.
I can’t believe it’s my 5th Blogiversary. I started back in 2013 and have come so far in 5 years! I am so comfortable with everything I never used to be. Buying wood. Cutting my own wood. Buying paint. Fixing things instead of replacing them.
My car is 10 years old – it’s a 2008 Honda Civic Coupe which I bought new [my first and only new car]. For the past year I’ve been noticing weird, ugly, white spots appearing on the roof. Last week I googled what the spots could be and learned they’re caused by sun damage.
Every year Ipswich, MA does what it calls Ipswich Illuminated. They light mini barges on fire along the River, decorate public streets & parks with lights, have activities for kids, have cool artistic light-related installations… it’s very cool! I’ve enjoyed seeing the River fires since I moved here 6 years ago. Apparently I’ve never posted any pics on my blog before.
In mid September, Jim’s Dad and stepmom came to visit us for a few days. It was a wonderful visit and we had a lot of fun doing touristy things and eating wonderful food.
Today is my 4th Blogiversary! On August 26, 2013, I published my first post on ninedarkmoons.com and started a 4 year odyssey of DIY, creativity, photography, and self expression. I’ve had so much fun, met so many awesome people, & accomplished more than I ever thought possible.
