It has been a bit since my last post, a lot has happened and I am still digesting a lot of it as well. From family news to personal it has been a bit up and down, mostly on the downward swing of things, but as we must we endure.

This blog may have found some additional inspiration that will generate additional content. I still haven’t fully absorbed the news but there is a new medical condition that I must contend with now… Type 2 Diabetes. I knew that I was at risk, I knew that it was possible if I didn’t make changes… but as with all beings I thought I had more time to correct the course. In short, I fucked around and now I am finding out.

So the start of this journey will of course be rocky but I expect that it will become par for the course in short order. Just a lot of trial and error (or as the Brits in IT used to say to their interns when checking out power cables “suck it and see”) and a lot of adjustment. Diet, exercise, and so forth will all have to change in short order along with medications and additional doctors appointments. As my all but adopted mother put it “its a lot to take it at first, but eventually it will become a minor annoyance at best”.

So here is the start of another journey, another adventure that I didn’t see myself taking and maybe sitting down to blog a bit more often now that I have something to write about. I have a few ideas and plans that I need to start putting into place, a new tattoo idea once the blood sugar is under control, and of course I’ll document the journey here. Its not the content that I wanted but it might be the content that someone else needs so I will do what I can because I must.

Wish me luck, its going to be a rocky road for a bit before things calm down. If dear reader, you have any suggestions by all means I am all ears. As an aside, it looks like WordPress has an integration with an AI image generator. This was the results of the nature of this post, a Half-assed Taoist Diabetic. I think I kind of like it…
