Wearing unbranded and cheap clothes doesn’t mean you are poor. Remember: you have a family to feed. Not a community to impress.

Sometimes just scrolling by something without commenting on it is the best thing you can do for your mental health and stuff like that.
Farewell Classic Blackberry Phones
Classic Blackberry devices were discontinued today. The original smartphone has continued to decline in popularity over the past few years. We owned a couple of them in the 2000s and thought they were pretty cool until we got the T-Mobile MyTouch phone which came with the Android phone OS. I think the physical keyboard was a plus and its durability was what I liked about them. I do wonder how many people will admit to still using them.

Enough Celebration, Let’s Get 2022 Going
We are beginning the first full week of 2022. The thing about a new year is the unknown. Sure, you can keep thinking about tomorrow, but it is a blend of daydreams and nightmares. In my corner of the world, the weather is trying to be all four seasons in one day. New Year’s Day was stormy, wet, and warm but winter weather is rumored for the beginning of this week. I am hoping work will start strong because that will set the tone for the year. Of course, we shall see what happens. It’s been good to have the new year’s celebrations on a weekend so the new year can get going in earnest on Monday morning. But let’s not rush Monday. No one wants that. The new year is just getting started, it’s time to get to living and working and all that jazz.
A Short 2021 Reflection
This year has been tough and for many just terrible. Everyone has been impacted in one way or another. So much has happened and it’s hard to keep up with it. Just ask our friends and neighbors how life has changed. COVID and all that goes with it have worn on us all and taken the lives of so many. Cultural and political upheaval are changing life in our neighborhoods and the world.
My friends, there have been so many other things that have challenged us and I am thinking we are just trying to survive and hope one day to thrive again. In the coming year be good to yourself, your friends, your community because we need 2022 to be better than the previous two years.
