Hi, friends! I keep up with lots of you via FB and/or Twitter, but I do miss the board. Love seeing the updates every year.
My babies are now 6 and almost 10. My youngest has his Mama's anxiety issues, so he's in therapy and I'm also now in therapy - with his play therapist! LOL. I love her and am looking forward to a healthier mental outlook. DW is still a SAHM and a bad-ass bass player in a local band.
My dad had a heart scare earlier this year, but is on meds and doing really well. My brother got remarried last October and I'm about to have a new nephew in January. My mom has completed her transformation from a Republican to a Democrat, which began when she voted for HRC in 2016.
I am in a new job (my third since moving to NC 5 years ago). Still haven't quite found my place, but at least there's lots of opportunity.
Love y'all and with you all a happy, healthy 2020 - hopefully ending the year with a brand new Dem POTUS.
Did we open this this year? Are we supposed to be delurking?
Goodbye and Good Riddance (2019) is open, too. I was wondering if the board upgrade opened the threads, but (mercifully), Lightbulb (the voting thread) is still locked, so I don't know what happened.
I don't think we ever closed either one.
dances around the delurking thread just because I can!
so are we just shunning 2020? cause I don't mind
Shun the 2020, shun, I say.
I'm torn between "shun 2020" and "how do we know 2021 is going to be any better?"
I have to believe 2021 will be better. Of course I confess to being a determined optimist at my core. But, we will have a new president, and we will get a vaccine for Covid. That has to be better.

In the larger sense? LET'S.
In terms of this thread, it doesn't change every year (although it usually gets closed and reopened). Goodbye and Good Riddance gets a new thread each year. I think we were waiting for the stank of the election to subside before we did that one.
