I just did something a little depressing

[Lorelai]

... and scrolled through some of the pages of members while exploring around VF again. There are some members who haven't been active in almost 20 years! For some reason this list made me feel really sad. I think this is compounded by there being pretty little new DVD content made by my favorite instructors in the past 8 years... Or the DVDs that have been made have gotten hard to find because they weren't in print very long (like Ellen Barrett). I know DVDs are considered somewhat antiquated now, but seriously, so many people struggle with rural internet connections! I don't even live that far outside of a major city and I still have crappy options. I stream YouTube on my tablet for Jessica Smith mainly, because I love her as an instructor as well as her content, and I appreciate that she is still putting out some DVDs, but it's really not my favorite. I understand why so many are going to streaming etc, but I do wish more would at least offer downloads for those of us with bad internet. Anyway. I've been busy today cooking (hubby drives a truck over the road and I cook weekly for him so he isn't stuck eating junk out of truck stops) and cleaning, actively NOT working out, because it's too easy to do too much too soon when restarting. In my down time I've been browsing old posts to see what I've missed, and kind of lamenting how much busier this forum used to be. On a positive note, I did notice that the newest member joined today! Maybe some regular lurkers will even come out and say hi.
