    As I was hoping, Remo ended up adding a few more sets to his “Polaroid Portraits” project at Monday’s PauseTalk (Vol. 33), and as you can see above, I was finally added to the mix.

    Yes, time for another post to keep you updated on the lack of updates. The move went well, but as you can imagine, I’m still exhausted, and now also without internet at home for about a week. I’ll say this, having to deal with a new dog, a move to a house, rainy season, and…
