Wednesday evening, Jan. 1, 2025.

I just remembered that I decided to post every Wednesday and I have nothing prepared. So I’m going to go with what I posted to my Christmas cards: I’ve decided to be happy as an act of resistance.

I can be happy and still do whatever is possible to counteract the evil that will be coming out of Washington D.C. for the next four years.  Have to admit I’m depending on someone  smarter than I to suggest things I can do.

I will be 85 years old in 53 days.  I have no way of knowing how much longer I’ll be around in this incarnation but I do know that I intend to be happy.  Actually, I already am but it’s possible that I can be happier.  Or, if something unpleasant comes along I can stay happy.

Additionally, friends and I are using Duolingo to learn Spanish. Easy and fun, so far.  Learning Spanish and posting every Wednesday to this blog will contribute to my happiness. I think I have a plan going.
