The future is a retrospective

Christmas with the family was lovely and as always, I’m so glad its over for another year. Now that Tom & I + Son have to come from Other Places, our time together seems compressed and rushed. Lots of long travel days and airport pickups

I hope 2020 is a good one for you and your family.

I hope 2020 treats you well. It sounds like moving your mother closer would make life a lot less hectic.

Edited because typing on my phone screws up numbers lol!!

It hasn't been the easiest half decade for you, has it! And that constant change between your now home and your Mom's must be so disorientating - I'd be forever looking for stuff that was in the other place. But hurrah for the good things in there too, thank goodness.

I turn 65 soon, lots of my life & experiences are in the rear view mirror.

I just did, a couple of days ago -and that view in the mirror seems to go back an awfully long way now! but there is still a lot of road in front beckoning me to explore - lets hope we are both going to have a really interesting trip :)

I hope life will be easier if you move your Mom down to Georgia for the rest of the winter - do you think she might just stay after that?

May 2020 and the next ten years have all the joys, and more, of the last ten and fewer not-so-good things.

It is good to think over the decade, isn't it? I posted a photo a year.

Best wishes for 2020

I'm near your age, and that rear view mirror is loooong. But I try to look ahead. I hope that 2020 treats you better than the last few years! I'd hate to be shuttling between two homes. For the last year and a half my mother was very sick/dying and it was hell even though we were both here in NYC.
