Cozy & Cold It's finally cozy and cold. I want to get cards written and some presents wrapped. I want to listen to Christmas music and think ahead to all the good in 2021. First Person! But there's so much going on in the news! I had to watch as the first person (outside of trials) received the vaccine! This is huge! The frontline workers in the medical field are first! I can't imagine the emotions that many of these doctors and nurses felt, after working so closely with Covid patients for nearly a year. Yesterday Yesterday, we learned that the White House would be offered the vaccine right away. Haven't they been ignoring the pandemic with all the huge un-masked Christmas parties? Why do they need a vaccine before others? I'm hoping the longterm care facilities will be vaccinated soon. I learned today that my Dad's assisted living community has 2 more cases... 6 this week. We know good and well that the vulnerable folks in these communities won't be getting the top notch care that Trump and Giuliani got. Electoral College Votes In the evening, I turned on a Christmas movie and wrapped presents. But I got a friend's text saying the votes were all in. I had to turn on the TV. Barr Resigns I'm relieved to think we can finally move ahead. But Trump is not conceding. Just minutes after the electoral college certified Biden as winner, Trump tweeted that Barr was resigning. William Barr was once Trump's staunchest allies and now Trump is furious with him... since Barr claimed no evidence of election fraud. Angry Base I want to just laugh and know this will all be behind us. But I can't. This was the scene in D.C. on Saturday. Trump's base is angry and this is not funny. I'm so worried about months ahead. TV Off I'm excited about the vaccine. But the TV went off. I'm just going to enjoy some simple decorations and feel grateful for my family's good health.

Not-So-Happy List
Cancer, Covid & Coronary... I started this complaining list/blog, in May 2016. I posted 200 gripes about my breast CANCER and then I was done. On March 13, 2020, I started venting all over again, when another disease (starting with a C) interfered with my life. This time it was the invasion of COVID and it affected every person. I ranted for a year, until I got my COVID vaccine in March 2021. CORONARY Artery Disease was the reason I restarted this blog on September 26, 2021. This time it was my hubby Don, who was dealing with a worry that started with the letter "C". Coronavirus and Cancer, Coronary Artery Disease! All are evil, but none can totally get me down... if I vent! I usually end up feeling a little more positive at the end of each post! Navigating This Mess! The most recent post is at the top, from coronary posts in 2022, back to cancer posts in 2016. To find past posts, look below the "Archives" section, to find "Categories". Archives
