2021 Here we come!

Stole this image from my friend  high school Jane Johnson.  It seems fitting.  Been writing since early this morning to my cousin in Australia about our differing life experiences and our similar view of the world.  Also my friend Susan who was a telephone pal from when I worked.  Along with speaking about orders and production, she told me of her life in North Carolina and her son that was 10 at the time, now will be 21 in February.  Also old friend Jo about our similar early rising and wanting to sleep in more, an impossibility for both of us. I like most of us is ready to start anew with the coming year.  Resolutions, a few;  first stay upright feet planted firmly on the terra ferma.  I am going to PT to try to earn this with their help.  Second, work on my sugars to stay healthy.  Thirdly, more interaction with people, not judging the old people around here and reaching out to my friends, family and associates even when it is not convenient.  Frankly, stuck in here with colder temperatures, I feel like that guy in the pictures, beat up.  

I have been truly enjoying my interactions with my far away family.  Did not know they existed till a few days ago. Trials and tribulations for us all abound and different lives.  My cousin in Hungary is a retired cardiac nurse.  My young cousin in Australia was an educator.  She was amazed at the lives of my children.  I am trying to get a feel for her life and she mine thru these talks.  Frankly, its till astounding to me that we can talk in real time even though we are thousands of miles apart in different time zones.  

Next year I am going to embark on a new blog.  I am truly beyond retirement.  It is over. Need to have a fresh take on these musings.  

too much blah blah blah today

Happy New Year

stay safe
