Well, some people woke up ladt Friday thinking that surely day 1 of the new year would usher in sanity and calm. A new day. We are now a week into the new year and we are still steeped in the craziness of the last year. It feels […]
My fitbit is something I might just let go of in the new year. There are many things to let go as the year 2020 thankfully winds down. I’ve been making a list. Fear needs to be left behind. Same wuth midnight snacks. And, my fitbit may very […]
The year of 2020 has, most certainly, worn itself thin. It’s been tiring, grating, and, depressing. So much so that you have therapists basically holding sessions from sun-up to midnight. At times there seems to be no reprieve whichever way you turn. I’m still trying to have my […]
