#1000 theoldmortuary ponders.

Co-incidence is a wonderful thing. The serendipity of life is a major factor in my blog writing.

Until this popped up yesterday I had no idea I had been blogging so long. The early years went through a few transitions and I really only found my niche when I accidentally hit on a prolonged daily blogging regime. Like many things in life Covid-19 caused a three month course related project to become open ended when the end point,the second part of the course failed to happen for two years.

15 years and 1000 editions of the current blog feels like an achievement. Not epic or outstanding, certainly not life changing for anyone beyond myself. I have become much more observant of the minutiae of a moment or tiny details in the bigger picture.

This picture of a snail appeared in the blog in 2017.

Much more recently Snails and I have been pondering companions as I undertook the white wall painting in the yard.

The two snails nicely demonstrate the different textures and directions of life. The last snail posing occurred this week. Not such great focus on the snail.

But this is where blogging, and my love of art and odd photography collide. A Surreal celebration of 15 years or a thousand blogs. Courtesy of my unpredictable photo manipulating  app.

Below is the snail of the moment.

A snail just waiting for something to pique her interest. The USP of my blog. Just waiting for something however small to spark a few words
