I love 'yet to come.' Just like the song, 'The Best is Yet to Come!' And I actually believe that. ~ Am I a Nut or What?!

Well, I try to be optimistic, although this time of the year it's difficult for me. No, you're not a nut...I don't think! I believe it has a lot to do with who we believe is in charge.

Thank you, Mike. I'm fighting seasonal depression, but occasionally I have some happy, even delightful, thoughts. You have a terrific week, my friend.

Indeed it does, Shirley. Even when things are going down hill it's nice to think of them coming back and moving forward again.
