10 years ago

There was no blog. I hadn’t started it yet. There was no wordpress to run it on, I began with blogger.

One child, and a baby nearly due. I was a senior programmer. We had a lovely detached house in Derbyshire, two cars and a cat.

Been a few changes since then, and it’s pretty much all here. I wonder what the next ten years hold.

I want to be recognised in my profession. I will write the books that are bumping round my brain, and I’ll even try to get them published. House renovation is on the cards, but hopefully no more moves. Two of the children will be old enough to have left home and I’ll be starting my second trek through teenage years.

Will I still be blogging?

I hope so.

      It appears not. Bizarrely, Merry and I started on the same day. Kirsty started a bit earlier, but I’m not sure has continuous archives anywhere any more.
