I, for one, am glad to see the back of 2025. It probably was the worst year I’ve ever had. The death of a spouse is really awful, and after all the stuff Barclay went through in his first round of cancer( the MDS), it just seems so unfair. But look at all the ones who die young, like Tatiania Kennedy, only 35. Geez, now that seems unfair. Well, life is what it is, no matter how you spin it. As I’ve always said, it is what it is, what it is. 😦

It’s raining again, so I didn’t walk. I might try to put my rain jacket on in a while and go down to the park. As long as it’s not pouring, I can use an umbrella. I guess I’ll wait and see.

I plan on making a pizza tonight, as I made the dough yesterday. We had our fun sub sandwiches and watched some of the new Dr. Who. It’s only fair in MHO. It seems geared towards adolescents. But I’ll watch a few more. I do like the new doctor.

I’m thankful to wake up and feel ready for the day.

I’m thankful our house is warm and dry.

I’m thankful that my daughter has taken on all the tasks B did, and she’s doing an amazing job. ( like getting the wood splitter moved, started, and used to split some of the larger pieces of wood.)

I’m thankful my son stayed home and was not out on the roads for NYE.

I’m thankful for the time that is given to me. That’s all we can do, is decide what to do with the time that is given us. Gandolf the grey.
