April 1, 2025, mind

Yesterday morning before the 5-mile walk, before driving to Tampa.

The tiny spider’s survival odds in our kitchen were slim. Perhaps slim here. Perhaps not.

Year 17 of “five-a-day” would officially kick off today. And it did. You’re reading it now.

However, odds are favorable for a gentle, heartfelt farewell.

A year from today, year-17’s completion and year-18’s kickoff feel unnecessary.

Note: Today may be that heartfelt farewell.

Planned, unplanned ending

Ten days until the planned, unplanned ending.

Knew the possibility of ending the prolific daily blogging might happen.

Never banked on it being in 2025.

Never.

But it’s going to.

Feels great, actually.

Weird?

Of course.

Ready?

No and yes.

What follows goodbye?

The number of days in 16 years, plus four leap years.

What follows goodbye?

Following goodbyes, there are planned ‘hellos’.

Hellos…

  1. Old dreams collecting dust
  2. New dreams recently dreamt up

Three weeks away, mind

Three weeks away from what is probably going to be a command decision.

April Fool’s Day 2025 will start the 17th year of writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts. Never missed a day. Ever. Insane.

After 16 complete years, April Fool’s Day 2025 seems like a nice place to stop.

Thank you prolific writing.

Thank you WordPress.

Thank you GoDaddy.

Fewer questions than ever.

Thank you divine providence for a brain capable of thinking any way it wants.
