Glad you got thru the cancer!

Yeah I do pretty well when I don't tune into anything news oriented, unfortunately that means all of my socials as well as du because I'm an activist and I follow everything! I have to unplug my brain on purpose so that I can try and stay in my own realm so to speak. Living in a small rural area, at least I'm removed from the big city trauma. But if shit falls apart and things break down, it's going to be hard for all of us... 🥺
