That&#8217;s turned into a whole big multi-branched family-history project, and I still have decades&#8217; worth of photos of my father&#8217;s family to post. At a very rough guess, I think that&#8217;ll last for about another year.<\/p>\n<p>And it was a year ago that I started posting photos of my stuffed animals. I see that at first the suggest-names-for-them thing was just a side aspect, not the main focus. Expecting to post the last of the stuffies in April or May.<\/p>\n<p>Two years ago, I started posting Strange Horizons Flashback stories. I&#8217;m still interested in that project, but I lost momentum around halfway through the year, partly because only a few people were reacting to the posts. Picked that project up again midway through 2017, but drifted away from it fairly soon thereafter. Don&#8217;t know whether I&#8217;ll ever finish that.<\/p>\n<p>And a post from a few years ago talked about being interested in learning more Spanish, which led to my ongoing intermittent Duolingo project; I still keep putting it down for too long at a time, but I also keep coming back to it, and I know a lot more Spanish now than I did when I started.<\/p>\n<p>At any rate, these are all good reminders to me that sometimes I do follow through on projects and make steady progress on them over a period of time. I&#8217;m hoping that that knowledge will help boost me into making progress this year on three or four projects that I&#8217;ve been stalled on for too long. We&#8217;ll see.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An old post from Facebook\u2019s \u201cOn this day\u201d tells me that it was about three years ago that I started&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15655","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-life-updates"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15655","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15655"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15655\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15655"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
