What a struggle I have been having. 2022 has been full of ailments and pain. I am glad to see 2023 coming.

It went from one ailment to the next. I had COVID, the flu, spinal infection, Hip pain, back pain, weakness in my legs, and other minor distractions. Am I having a pity party? Not at all. I am old as dirt, and these things come with age. I just grin and bear it.

The military has taught me to toughen things out.


I am about ready to interview a submariner. Not just any submariner, a nuclear submariner. Should be a great interview.
