Happy New Year to you too, Kid.

Jan 2 is recovery day.

Happy New Year to everyone (or anyone happens to drop in here once a year or more often)!

2018 wasn't that bad a year for me, at least compared to 2017 when both of my parent passed away within 75 days of each other (January and March). I did still have a lot left to manage with their (very cluttered) estate in 2018, even after more than a year, but it's all settled now.

I'm looking forward to a calmer, less hectic 2019.

I'm also gearing toward going into teaching at Indiana University here, applying for positions and meeting faculty in the Informatics and Business schools. That's my goal for the year, a final career move prior to retiring in a few years.

Happy New Year.
2017 took my mother (January) and my husband (July).
2018 took my favorite aunt (mom's sister), a cousin (mom's brother's oldest son) and another aunt (mom's youngest brother's x-wife). All 3 within 2 weeks in July. 3 graves in the same cemetery within feet of each other. And just last month a second cousin who I was very close to.

I'm not holding my breath for 2019.

I do have a better hold on my grief for Jerry. I think of him daily but am very busy now with so many things.

And? I joined the Y this week and cut my hair today.

Not to mention that we also lost agman last year.

You've been through a lot in the last two years with the loss of family and friends. Just remember that you still have friends who are still here.

Here's to wishing you a happy and calmer 2019.

I should come here more often. I don't post much on FB with the group from here.
Politics got ugly and I avoided as much as I could. Heck, I even stopped following some family cause I'm tired of it all.
When faced with the loss of those we hold dear to us, the other mess just isn't important - at least not to me.
Don't get me wrong. I still care about others. I just chose not to fight with those who disagree with me.

Are you ok?

Personally, I'm fine. I did break my hand early in 2018 which led to medical bills I wasn't expecting but everything else is okay. Just real tired of the divisions I see everywhere around me. So much anger on both sides.

I agree with you about the divisions.
Sometimes I want to lecture both sides. But I feel like it would be the same as talking to a fence post, so I don't.
