A New Year!

 Well, folks. 2020 is finally over, a new year is upon us. And everything henceforth will be better.

Right?

I mean, 2020 gave us a really contentious presidential election and that’s over.  
We also got the Covid virus and that has seen businesses close, people getting sick, people dying, kids not able to go to school, and families scared to gather together for holidays or even for Grandma’s birthday. 
It’s been a difficult year but it’s all behind us now... right?

Got some news for you: today we are dealing with the same crap.

The new president doesn’t get sworn in until later this month, and that depends upon the various legal battles being put together. Even if/when he gets sworn in the trouble doesn’t stop there. Biden has sworn to severely restrict private firearm ownership in a number of ways. Don’t think that won’t be exciting.
Additionally, we’re still dealing with the Covid virus. A lot of people still have it and a lot of people will still get it, especially with a new strain spreading around the world that is more contagious and thus easier to get.
O, the vacine(s)? Word is it won’t filter down to the normal folks until June or July. That’s a long ways away and a lot can happen between now and then.

So, are we out of the woods yet? No, we’ve still got a long trek to make.
