is much like yours. We have a super majority in state government, statewide offices held by Democrats, and two great Democratic Senators, Duckworth and Durbin. Our governor, Pritzker, is so good that they want to steal him from us to be vice president or president. You can't have him! We need him!

I am glad your state is on the side of the good guys!

I'd guess the silver lining is real estate was relatively cheap in NE Fl 40 years ago so we own our house free and clear. I plan to plant some fruiting trees and bushes, and expand my gardening efforts up from just various varieties of tomatos and peppers. My sister is renovating our old house and will be moving in just 2 blocks from us, so that's good. My chronically Herpes infected cat made it through his mouth surgery well and it was an iffy thing we'd put off for years due to the expense. Found a great vet! Son is in rehab with Salvation Army and that's a private organization, I believe. Daughter and her boyfriend are doing well.

Just so glad our kids have old enough to no longer be in school, that would be bad, and no one in the family relies on goverment subsidies at this time. Praying so hard that continues!
