A New Year In This New Week

It’s hard to believe it’s the last few days of 2025. On Thursday, we welcome a brand-new year, 2026. To be honest, I have not given 2026 a great deal of thought, I am afraid to considering how 2025 has gone. Like any new year, there is a lot of mystery and anxiety. We will have to see how it goes. I will say I have plenty of uncertainty. How are you feeling about things as we turn the page and begin a new story?

I will have to say many want to hold onto a past that isn’t working out too well for some. The future needs to come and in a hurry.

Holiday 2025 Notes

Christmas Day 2025 for me was a good one, being with my family. I am appreciative of everything I was given. We spent time together eating, exchanging gifts, and enjoying the day. It was a warm day, with temperatures that felt more like early spring.

My family on Christmas Day.

Today, the missus and I had the day off. We spent it watching a marathon of Christmas movies. Scrooge, It’s A Wonderful Life, and White Christmas. Later on we will dive into Stranger Things.

We have seen all of these movies this holiday season. I would say my favorite is National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, which is what we watch first every year.

To all who are celebrating Boxing Day, may it be one of good tidings, giving to those in need and peace.

Merry Christmas Eve

It’s Christmas Eve and it’s time to be mindful of the season and those we love. Today I gave the gift of life in the form of a blood donation at Blood Assurance the regional blood bank I work for. It seemed like a good thing to do to help others in this season.

My friends have a great Christmas. Be safe everyone.

Thought Of The Day 12152025

Donald Trump is not a good man. He is woefully incompetent and lacks the moral clarity to lead. The presidency often requires empathy and compassion, which he is incapable of. His remarks about the murder of Rob Reiner proves that point. There is no argument anyone can make to defend him as a leader or a person. I so wish that his party would have the courage to hold him accountable.
