These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

My ONEWORD for 2020
I chose MORE to remind myself that's all I need to do. Not "everything," not "all," just MORE. Be more sensible in my spending than last month, move more than I did last week, drink more water than I did yesterday.
$4,000
That's about how much I reduced my credit card debt in 2019.
It's not enough, of course. But it's a good start. And it makes up for 2018, when I added $4,200 in credit card debt to my ledger.
2020 will present some financial challenges:
• Increased monthly assessments
• New air conditioner(s)
• My niece's out-of-town wedding
• Of course, stuff I can't anticipate
I'll just have to continue to be mindful when I spend. Wish me luck!
