Loner after Christmas check in [View all]

Hey fellow loners


How did your Holidays turn out? Mine was good, all things considered. My dad had a stroke last week and it's been pretty rough. Gonna be a long road of recovery.

I think all of my neighbors must've gotten guns for Christmas. It's sounded like a war zone since about 10 this morning. I decided to go burn some leaves ...... Hope they don't mind

Working on a good friend's campaign this year. She's running for state rep. We're completely inexperienced but we've got heart and good work ethic. Never know, we might mess around and win

Happy New Year to you gals and guys.
