Many of us have made it through another year. Even with the Chinese Virus still causing havoc. Our Government has turned things upside down, opening the border, shutting down oil, gas and coal production making us dependent on OPEC and now Europe on Russia. We have neglected our armed service people and many are depressed and committing suicide. 22 on average die each day. In the general public it is 130 each day. From every perspective it is too many. 100,000 have died from Fentanyl overdoses. It flows from China to Mexico where it is contaminated and shipped to us. We have illegals committing crimes, released and then committing more crimes. And so on. It is a sad, sad situation that is going to need the hand of intercession by our Heavenly Father. The last two years seem lost except for our personal efforts in taking care of that which is before us. I have been lucky to have had my daughter, Chris and her son, Oliver live with me and then near me. It has been a gift to have them about. It was especially wonderful to have them both helping me move from my beautiful home on Michibay Drive to one on the same drive four miles to the west which was just a little smaller. It is located on a beautiful bay area of Lake Michigan. There are great views from the house. The two, plus Ollie’s girlfriend helped me immensely from the middle of June until recently, now that we have things mostly under control. It was a big task but we did it. I hope we can have our first cousins reunion here in 2022. My health is above moderate, but no one needs the litany. I like many, because of Covid, have neglected to my dismay many that I didn’t wish to. I go to daily mass four days a week, pray for everyone, and skip the weekends just to try and be safe. I will make some snowmen to honor my relatives and friends. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and an improved Happy New Year for 2022. We all have lost some loved ones this year. It is the way of life and we will see them again or for the first time down the road. God bless you all, my friends and be at peace. Be at peace.
