I've just read over my last post and can't believe it has been over a year since I've posted here. I have no extraordinary excuses for my absence. Life simply got in the way. How do all the super busy people accomplish all that they do? I have no idea.
At times I have felt bogged down by the world around us. As a lifelong news addict, everything seems to be heading in the wrong direction: war/peace, climate change, politics, poverty around the world and in our midst.
As a boomer, I feel lucky to have spent my childhood in that relatively carefree time of the fifties. I wish our current time period was like that...not for me, as much as for our children and grandchildren.
It is the love and support of my family that sustains me. It is a joy to be with them. There is still much to celebrate in our everyday lives.
And so, I'm going to try to write again. It is a source of satisfaction , even when I write the grouchy stuff. In that spirit, I think this blog can be named Grateful and Grouchy. I will; attempt to limit my grouchiness.
