A woodworker/participant on the LumberJocks.com website reached out to me, by e-mail.
I asked him to let the other LumberJocks -- a former family of mine -- know about my blog. Looks like at least one, so far, has stopped by :-)
To the LumberJocks who DO visit: I welcome you. I miss you. I thank you for your constant support and encouragement, both during my formative year(s) as a woodworker, and -- maybe more importantly -- when life turned on me so viciously, dismantling me brick by brick until I had no place to go and nothing to do but ... leave the country.
Until I get rid of my shop (I haven't. It's all in storage), I still call myself a woodworker. Whether or not I'll ever be able to get back into it ... I can't say.
But sawdust ... got into my bloodstream.
I miss my craft. I miss my shop. I miss my LumberJock buddies.
All y'all :-)
Well, as long as you keep posting, will check it out. ;)
ReplyDeleteYou were one of the first LJers to welcome me.. so you'll always be be part of my woodworking family!
ReplyDeleteWoodworking will never be too far from your hands as a full blown shop is a mere luxury, not necessity. Enjoy this journey my friend. We miss you too buddy. Be well.
ReplyDeleteHi, it's Robb from LJ. I had not seen any of your earlier posts about what you've been going through. Wow. I shan't complain about anything for a while.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your travels are going well. I'm going to bookmark your blog, and follow along. I pray you land in a happy place.
Thanks so much, all.
ReplyDeleteI'll look forward to seeing you around here, now and again :-)
