Disclaimer: I did not take the photo of the woman rowing. It was an xmas gift to me and the GG and I have it on the shelf above the kitchen counter. After the sun went down (WELL after the sun went down, I mean), I looked up and saw my kitchen LED lights reflected in the glass and took this meta-pic. The woman rowing is our daughter and we love the pic and I hope it is okay that I posted this altered pic.

Moving on into 2025. It is a new year and I do not make resolutions. A lot of people (non-Trumpers like me) are maybe kind of freaked out about the future. I am too, make no mistake! He is just about the worst person to obtain the American presidency ever. We’ve endured him once, why oy why do we have to endure him again? A mini Trump primer (again): HE DOESN’T CARE ABOUT ANYTHING EXCEPT HIMSELF.

The only way I can approach the new year is to roll into it with the attitude that “I can carry on”. I said this to people who asked if I was okay after my uber boss Amazon Woman got laid off a few years ago. I think some of them thought I might quit. Nope. I mean. I am an adult. A mature adult at that. I have raised two awesome women (actually they raised themselves) and buried my entire childhood nuclear family (brother dad mother) and, yes, I can carry on. I hope…

I know that there are others out there who don’t have the means or the psychological stamina to carry on. Praying for you in my own godless way.
