I saw a thread earlier about the stress that some folks are feeling because of all that's happening at once in our world.

Hope you're hanging in there! We're dong alright, although we've had a few moments.I'm very fortunate that I have plenty to keep me busy and we have a safe place to live in these very uncertain times.

Mostly, I'm resigning myself to my beliefs that:

- The Covid-19 virus is going to go on through the end of the year and beyond
- The economy will limp along with inequalities becoming more advanced
- Socially, we're going through a remarkable upheaval with unexpected and unanticipated outcomes
- The election will be contentious, ugly and dangerous.

Quite a ride we're on!
