Update 2020

 

What a year. I'm glad it's almost over. With the pandemic, an idiotic government, racial tension, economic upheaval...there's a hurricane in the gulf and the entire western US is on fire. It's just crazy. But, right here and now, we're OK. Healthy and keeping busy. 

Anthony power washed the deck, repaired and sealed it. He and his crew (his son and a friend) cleaned out the gutters and moved the yard. We are all set.

Mike is buying a new dishwasher with his trump bucks. 

The leaves are starting to fall and the mornings are nice and cool. 

I am very mindful of the fact that there are many people who are really, really struggling right now--mentally, physically, financially--and I am grateful that we are doing okay. As bad as things are out there, they could be worse! It's a scary thought. I just hope when we get on the other side of all this, the world will be a better place, that there will be peace and justice. 

In the meantime, we continue on and just do the best we can.
