New Years Eve: 2019

A new decade begins.   In the last decade, these four monkey's came into my life.   May the next decade bring them health, happiness, smarts, strength and success.   And, may it bring the fortitude to understand the world isn't always easy, or fair.   But you survive.

Happy New Years to all.

Be safe.
Be warm.

Be gentle with one another.  Life can be hard enough as it is.
Be flexible.  Really, not that much is important.
Be on time.
Make your bed.
Do good work.
Eat healthy.
Get good exercise.
And go to bed early.

And Epstein didn't kill himself.

Merry Christmas: 2019

In some respects, it's been a challenging year.  It ended with the funeral a couple of days ago of a 3 year old granddaughter of a friend.

It's hard to get over that.

May all of you have a wonderful Christmas and end of the year.  And celebrate a life....and hope for 2020.

The reason I am behind on my blogging.

Sporting a cast and then a splint for a while.  But I should be back to normal by early January, I  hope!

Snow? What Snow?

Well, it is winter in the Upper Midwest!

Dress warm.   It was -4F this AM without the wind!

Not Losing Touch

It's been a bit of a challenge to keep up with the blog these last few months.   Two knee surgeries and a hand surgery have slowed me down. And I haven't had a lot of desire to do photos.  But, I am coming around.  I should be able to get around in a month or so.

It is good to not lose touch with those who support you!
