In case anybody is concerned, I haven’t been here for awhile. A lot has changed in my life. My father is on hospice right now and things are crazy. Hope everyone is well.

We live in an era where *every single claim* needs to be verified. This example is a very easy one to suss out.

Information and digital literacy skills are crucial.

Been watching all these travel videos for cruises and train rides and Vegas. Now after some of them I’ve seen, I am staying home. Ewwww

I think 2025 is going to find me reading mainly fiction other than homework. I need stories and am really craving books after a seriously long reading that lasted from 2023 through most if 2024. My longest one ever.

Trying to figure out reading plans for 2025. I want to do something totally different and get back into it. This 2 year slump has really been awful. I just need to figure out how to work it in while pursuing two new masters degrees.

Back in late September I lost one of my dearest friends from college to a ruptured bowel. Last night I was watching the CMA Country Christmas and Amy Grant sang “Tennessee Christmas”. The tears poured but I will forever cherish this song we both love. I miss you friend.
