To Explain What Just Happened

Hello Dear Followers,

I've had unwelcome attention to the blog so I am for the moment limiting access to those of you whom I know follow and are also in my contacts. I truly regret that that probably leaves out some who join in that I don't know about and are missing from the Google access list I threw together. It's not intentional. I hope I'll be forgiven as I sort this out.

There were unintentional emails launched to you by Google who, for shame, didn't mention that in the instructions. I meant to email you myself afterward.

Right now, I'm trying to decide whether to continue in this limited-access blog format or to construct another blog with hopes to upload all this into a newly named and constructed blog--a new identity. And following that, will shut down Beyond Dust Fuzzies as we know it here.

It's hard to think of abandoning the BDF name. It came from a long ago class for pregnant women (notice I didn't add "and husbands" since this was the early '60s) and during the session "after your baby is born" and all the nitty-gritties of newborn child care were covered, there arrived the moment when we were instructed to "learn to look at dust fuzzies". It was in the spirit of not sweating the small stuff because we're going to be tired, and the house wasn't going to be clean and neat, and all the little ducks wouldn't be quacking along in their row. Forever after, while dust-mopping the fuzzies from beneath the family beds I thought of that and a nice little warm place would swirl around me and make me smile.

Those days were over--Book I finished. Book II lasted a couple more decades. Most of you have followed Book III since it began on this blog along about June of 2013.

I've been enjoying this contact with you. It keeps you fresh in my mind. Images become photos as I stroll along on my walks or sometimes text pops into mind. Then, it's fun and a nice little warm place swirls around me and makes me smile.
