Week 4 2022: All the News

Looks like January is ending with a lot of really cold weather and snow for many of us. We are almost back down to the “record high” covid numbers they predicted for January back in December. In early December there were predictions of hitting half a million cases a day by mid January. Instead, weContinue reading “Week 4 2022: All the News”

Things that will upset my new friends

I don’t like twitter. I never have. But, several people asked me to use it, so, in the mornings while I gather the news, I post there as well. I usually post 15 articles or so there, and there will be a handful of likes. Maybe. Spread out over the whole day. On a reallyContinue reading “Things that will upset my new friends”

2022 Week 3: All the News

Week 3, and this feels like the shittiest game of dodgeball ever. Who is still on team “Never got Covid”? I’m still here, but it feels like this side is dwindling quickly.

The January 6 committee is making a lot of noise, but we’ll see if anythingContinue reading “All the news 2022: Week 1”

I think I’ve figured it out

I am VERY rarely banned on Facebook for the news articles or anything like that. I’m not a liar. I don’t post fake news. I always get in trouble for the pictures that I post. Every time. There was the Donkey Kong spoof with the Jan 6 wall climbers. I was “inciting violence”. There wasContinue reading “I think I’ve figured it out”

Welcome 2022

Well, we are in 2022. I’m in a cabin in the mountains and have been reading and drawing and thinking maybe I just stay here forever. But, apparently the kids and the dogs demand I return home. Today is my birthday, not sure if I want to hike, wander antique stores or enjoy alcohol iceContinue reading “Welcome 2022”
