The pandemic is still here and though there are vaccines which is great who knows when they'll be available to everyone and so we have to be careful and I find myself staying indoors more than I should. I have to get out more and walk around. That's my New Year's resolution.

I'm just not sure that is going to happen. When it comes to reading I'm going to focus on my books again but I am going to be joining quite a few challenges.

I don't think there are too many optimists out there anymore. The numbers here are getting worse day by day, and by the time the impact of Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings are known, I suspect that the news will be horrifying. This county is larger than the entire state of Rhode Island, so you can imagine how it impacts the rest of Texas...and too many people still don't seem worried enough about it to quit partying. <br /><br />Oh...Happy New Year!
