+<p>2023-06-24</p>
+<p>My <a href="/aui">first public article</a> was posted on June 28th 2016. That was <em>seven</em> years ago.</p>
+<p>In that time, quite a lot has changed in my life both personally and professionally. So, I figured it would be interesting to reflect on these years and document it for my own personal records. My hope is that this is something I could start doing every 5 or 10 years (if I can keep going that long!). This way, my blog also serves as a &#8220;time capsule&#8221; or museum of the past&#8230;</p>
+<h2 id="fun-facts">Fun Facts</h2>
+<p><strong>This Blog</strong>:</p>
+<p>I originally started blogging on <code>bradleytaunt.com</code> using WordPress, but since then I have changed both my main domain and blog infrastructure multiple times. At a glance I have used:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Jekyll</li>
+<li>Hugo</li>
+<li>Blot</li>
+<li>Static HTML&#47;CSS</li>

+<li><a href="https://pblog.bt.ht">pblog</a></li>
+<li><a href="https://barf.bt.ht">barf</a> <em>Currently using!</em></li>
+</ul>
+<p><strong>Personal:</strong></p>
+<p>As with anyone over time, the personal side of my life has seen the biggest <em>updates</em>:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Married the love of my life (after knowing each other for ~14 years!)</li>
+<li>Moved out into rural Ontario for some peace and quiet</li>
+<li>Had three wonderful kids with said wife (two boys and a girl)</li>
+<li>Started noticing grey sprinkles in my stubble (I guess I can officially call myself a &#8220;grey beard&#8221;?)</li>
+</ul>
+<p><strong>Professionally:</strong></p>
+<ul>
+<li>Pivoted heavily into UX research and design for a handful of years (after working mostly with web front-ends)</li>
+<li>Recently switched back into a more fullstack development role to challenge myself and learn more</li>
+</ul>
+<h2 id="nothing-special">Nothing Special</h2>
+<p>This post isn&#8217;t anything ground-breaking but for me it&#8217;s nice to reflect on the time passed and remember how much can change in such little time. Hopefully I&#8217;ll be right back here in another 7 years and maybe you&#8217;ll still be reading along with me!</p>
