Well, it is absolutely about time I fill you in on the very busy goings on in my life, so here it goes!

First things first, let me tell you about the medical issues that I have been alluding to lately.  If you have been a reader for a while, you know that I had spinal fusion surgery at 16, and have pretty much been fine ever since.  However, about a year ago I started having pretty terrible pain in my back and legs.

So, thinking there was an issue with my spine and the two rods/tons of screws, I was checked out by a surgeon, took new X-rays, and had an MRI.  Unfortunately, it was not obvious by any of these fancy medical means as to what the problem was/is.  Fast forward to seeing many different doctors, and having many different tests, the source of my pain is still undetermined, but I will be starting physical therapy this week, so hopefully that will help.

Next, I have been working super duper hard on a new blog design, and I can’t wait to debut it shortly.  Since I was away for so long, this has been put on the back burner, but it is being pushed to the front of my to-do list, and I have a very special treat to go along with it!  I wanted to simplify the focus of the blog, and I think the design mirrors that as well.

Finally, I have also opened a small vintage curiosity Etsy shop, Gallymogger Antiques and Oddities.  I am a collector and lover of vintage and oddities at heart, so I decided that opening a vintage shop would be a great fit!  I know that stock is low now, but hopefully I’ll be adding fun new items weekly!

Well, that’s all for the moment, but look for some really great stuff coming soon!
