2020 sucked for almost everyone. Some had it worse for any number of reasons. Now, as the end is near for this pandemic, I want to focus on positive things. I'm basically an upbeat and optimistic person, which is probably why I don't like angsty books or stupid drama over inconsequential things. Here is a short list of good things I found (not in any order of importance) to be happy about:
1. We welcomed my grand niece, Savannah Rose, into the world. Such a cutie!
2. The vaccine was created in record time and in several months, I hope to be vaccinated and enjoying simple pleasures like a movie and hugs again.
3. My husband retired which means we can travel (maybe I can get him to finish putting up the molding around the house too).
4. My eldest son achieved Honors in Rutgers School of Engineering.
5. My nephew graduated high school and is doing well in college.
6. My middle son is back in college with a determination to succeed that thrills me.
7. My youngest is working in the pharmaceutical field with a bright future and recently got a promotion and raise.
8. None of my family suffered illness or death due to Covid-19.
9. The trees are budding and spring is only days away.
10. I'm revising a manuscript for an interested publisher.
I could make a longer list of things that have gone wrong, but what's the point? There will always be challenges and I prefer to look ahead with hope.
Wishing you more good things-
Char
