Does anyone know where it really went and indeed where as we go through the outro into Twenty Twenty Five where we'll end up?
This blog has being going, like ages sometimes going more down one set of interests and then the other but one thing was we achieved a good number of posts, all original, made over a variety of different computers from the legend that was "Treacle, the slowest thing out there in the west to the death of the old Windows laptop to the adoption of using Chromebooks to do most things including blog posts on.
One arrival late last year was this Lenevo Thinkpad 280 which had better processors and more ram for dealing with social media and BIG photo galleries apart from online in browser games which has helped matters somewhat not least for having easier to read keys.
I tend to use Windows for certain things such as running photo programs and cross posting so a solution was needed as much as for more everyday stuff I'm quite happy to use a Chromebook
Some sad trends continued such as the declined usage of one "little girls" site, sad cos I struggle with few very long continuous threads rather than themed threads on a layer of sub forums and some Tumblrs dropping off as trying to find tumblrs that are around littles fashion, age regression and really SFW can be hard going.
I do use Sissy Kiss that has its uses although it lacks some of more discussion and Daily Diapers that has some but suffers from a few vicious purist Little Girl warriors that although there's a sissy sub forum try to drive us away while Sissy School tends to be more "Big" Gurl by topics.
I'm working through developing looks that I feel comfortable in a variety of settings as some which may be fine for others just don't it for me or are unpractical when it comes to either putting on, fastening or being carried in the case across railway platforms before taking lifts.
Some of my older ankle socks were showing some signs of wear and tear so I did have for Christmas three of these of cotton calf length socks that will work with most things apart from just below the knee with patterns for a more sophisticated look while being close to the appeal of pelerine school type socks.
Music has always played a part in my life which why it is on here and 2024 did see a few more records being added, some from the The Original Source series of Classical re-issues cut from the original four and eight track tapes directly rather than copies and selected reissues from people like Analogue Productions.
I did get a good number of the mono reissues of the Beatles American albums from 1964 and some books about them for Xmas.
The Now Yearbook series kept going although generally on record I haven't bothered with the post 1982 issues but we did continue with the 1970's issues with 1977 and I expect as we get into the the New Year there will be issues from 1970-72 and 1975-76 which I will be buying.
Part of is tactile and nostalgia based, handling and lowering the stylus brings back the memories of playing the compilations of the day the is the music itself which I love listening to.
We did get away rather more than the previous year sometimes for a weekend, other times for a good few days for clean non kink connected fun just being your younger self, playing games, going out places and given we look after our food connected needs, helping out.
Plans are afoot to go away for the first quarter of the year and tentative ideas are being mooted for weekends too which should be fun.
Comics play a part too from the Beano to modern offerings such the Phoenix with more modern characters as do colouring books when the hands are up to it, getting absorbed in something relaxing either at home or away.
