A new day. A new chance to succeed.

Feast or famine.

After a few good nights, last night? Not so much.

Too much on my mind.

A couple of problems needed addressing. Issues that I had to admit I lack the skills, strength, and knowledge to solve on my own.

The cascade of "what if"s wouldn't let up.

This morning I've reached out to some professionals to get some assistance. We'll see what comes.

Some days, you just have to roll with it.

Best wishes on your travails #today

Thou roguish, folly-fallen, punk!

Tree peonies not kidding around, y'all. Just glorious.

CDC COVID-19 vaccine study won't be published

U.S. health officials have stopped the publication of a study on the COVID-19 vaccine's effectiveness in preventing hospitalizations. A spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services confirmed the decision on Wednesday, citing concerns about the study's methodology. The research was set to appear in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. HHS officials argue that factors like prior infection and behavior can affect the results of such studies. But experts in the field say the methodology is sound and essential for real-time vaccine effectiveness estimates.

I see things are going well in that war that isn’t a war.
