Hooray for the New Year

So 2020 went from bad to worse. We lost friends and family to COVID-19 and it upended our economy.  We literaly fought with each other over problems with race and class that we have not been able to resolve in generations.  And then threw gasoline on those fires using the presidential election as our excuse. The leaders we chose failed us.  And we've failed to hold them accountable. But we still have opportunities to do better, be involved, make improvements. And it's still our job to hold those we choose to represent us accountable. 

Our best news amid all this chaos was the arrival of our grandson, Owen Douglas Miller, on May 1. He is thriving, his parents are providing him with so much love, and he is a beacon of joy to all of us. 

So it's a new year, we have each other, and a chance to do better.
