I’ve never been one to celebrate anniversaries, nor have I ever been a particularly sentimental person. Don’t get me wrong, I have great appreciation for all manner of folks and events that happen their ways into my path and mine into theirs. I do experience weighty nostalgia at times. Reflection has always been a pastime, though instead of it being a conscious choice to take some time for processing, it is usually spurred by the anxiety of an overwhelmed and subsequently depleted nervous system. That is where tea comes in. Conscious reflection and centeredness.
I’ve been spinning in place lately. Every input from the reality that whirls around me sets me a little off balance and into unexpected territory but I come right back to this every time. This neglected website. Both the members new and those seasoned, some of whom have put up with my life happenings and musings and contributed their own. You’re all so very excellent and I wish that sometimes I were in the mood to communicate with you more, but damn, am I tired. Twenty-twenty, I’m trying. I’m trying to break out of this dizzying spin.
Here’s to 2 years of Steepster. I’m in awe of all that has happened in this short amount of time. Come what may. Hopefully a brighter future for the site and for us all.

I hit my three year back in June, but didn’t really think about it… seems like there is so much going on these days. Happy Anniversary!
Only two years you’ve been here! Whoa. Take care of yourself, derk and hopefully the world will start shaping up soon. Stevie sounds like what I need right now.
Two years and so many teas you have tried. And we did two swaps and both were great. I wish you more and more nice teas and nice tea sessions!
I am feeling same as you though. Hopefully it will settle down fast :)
Happy Steepster anniversary! I’ve been on Steepster for almost three years and it feels like you’ve always been here.
Leafhopper – you’ve only been around Steepster for three years? I feel like you’ve been here much longer too. Maybe “Steepster time” feels different. haha
Apparently, I joined on August 12, 2017. A momentous day. :) And yes, Steepster time does feel different.

It’s nice to have somebody to be tired with. Here’s to many more years of friendship.
