c.? ?Did you make any New Years resolutions?

Not specifically, but I am building a skoolie and plan to be traveling by April. This is part of an ongoing effort to have a useful and active--and nourishing--retirement. While the resolution is older than New Year's Day, there is a sense of recommitment asI switch from heavy work hours in nursing to a more moderate schedule giving me time to work on the skoolie andmy fitness.

2.? ?What was the most overplayed story of the last year?

Cancel Culture? I am still wrapping my head around the removal of genders, some pronouns and the U.S. Civil War from reality. What I found most astonishing was that so many of the younger folks have never heard of Orwell's 1981.?

3.? ?Are you optimistic that this year will be better than the last one?

Every year is a good year. The universe does not use human judgment to assign values-based labels. What is, is. ALl of last years personally tougher moments can be matched with personally pleasant or productive moments, so I have confidence in 2022!

4.? ?What is the strangest treatment for COVID 19 you have heard of yet?

Denial.?

5.? Do you think the US is going to be involved in another shooting war before the end of the year?

Seems likely. Too many global examples of saber-rattling, some of them frighteningly similar to the rise of the Axis powers back in the early 1900's. Too many examples of civil decay. Did I mention that there is now a question of executive center involvement in COVID after effects? Patients reporting an inability to manage emotions and behaviors. Nothing concrete yet, but a little voice in my mind chants about the coming rabid zombie apocalypse!

Just kidding, of course.
