Dear Readers:
My last post resonated with a few of my female friends. A college friend, “Sue,” wrote the following that she said I could share as a guest post. (And you know I love a good guest post.)
See you Monday with fresh content from me, courtesy of Gideon.

My own non-resolutions
By “Sue Buckley”
This year, I will not:
- Keep those heels I think that I might wear just one more time. You know the ones. My knee and ankle … done.
- Brexit quietly or vote for Trump. I demand IQ tests with a score range of at least superior or gifted — depending upon the scale — for all voters.
- Wear all that odd jewelry I’ve accumulated over the years. In fact, I may give it away.
- Obsess over the last time I changed the kitchen sponge. (Trust me: This haunts me.)
- Blurt out what I “really think” during a video call. It’s impossible to hide my face. Learned this from experience, and it’s easier without the visual.
- Say yes when I mean no. I was taught this during my formative years, but it wandered back in. I don’t have to spend my time anywhere or with anyone if it’s not valuable (true friends and family excluded).
- Not shut up about menopause. I don’t care how boring it gets. They don’t tell you this shit.
- Not finish my book. (Beth and I have the same goal.) It’s happening this year.
