Finally found a quote that sums up how I feel today.

[ShazzieB]

This time last year, we were all celebrating Joe Biden’s win and looking forward to the vaccines. "2020 was a real shit show," we said. "Thank God it's over!"

This year, I feel punch drunk after all the crap 2021 has thrown at us. But hey, Biden is still president, right? As hard as Trump has tried, all of his efforts to get his disgusting ass back in the White House have gotten him absolutely nowhere. So that's at least one thing we can celebrate, right? Right?

Anyway, here's hoping better times lie ahead, or at least that 2022 will be less of a dumpster fire than 2021!

2. I'm hoping...

And only hoping, that the fire will be put out , the dumpster emptied, hosed out with a power steamer.

6. Happy New Year, DU

2022? I'm both skeptical and hopeful - Mother Nature seems on a warpath and a portion of Earth's population, at least in America, are loonies who despise democracy and murder their own for free speech?...What's in store...stay tuned...DU News all day - in the late autumn of my days! https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/148652/nothing-gold-can-stay-5c095cc5ab679

Nothing Gold Can Stay

BY ROBERT FROST
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Then that New Year's baby comes - I hope she thrives, that 2022

April is the cruelest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain
-T.S. Eliot, “The Wasteland”
