This Year Like Last Year

Back in 2000 there was a musical review I saw at a theater in our "arts district." The show was full of excitement about a new millennium, but it also had a cynical undertone of "well it feels a lot like the old one." Becky Allen still made the show a fun experience.

There is the old French expression "The more things change, the more they stay the same."

So far this year is a continuation of the last one. The number is just a number and the problems are not going to be solved overnight.

Here's to something different soon . . .

New Year

A new year is just like a blank canvas. The question becomes what should I do next?

First I'll have to kick around some ideas. Four months of hurricane and flood woes have been tiresome. So, I'm definitely ready to move on to something else. (By the way, my roof and gutters are fixed.)

There are some pieces I need to finish, but I have to start working some new stuff.
