So Susan, In what areas are you optimistic, and in what areas are you pessimistic?

I'm pretty optimistic about most everything. Except Humana Pharmacy's ability to get my prescriptions to me without drama.

Besides Humana, I'm pessimistic mostly about people. I think global warming is frying the common sense and decency out of most of them.

But, it's hard to be sincerely pessimistic. I think Trump is a brainless idiot who's election to president will shore up leadership elections for years to come. I loved Obama and still do. But. I honestly believe he gave us all a false sense of security and led us down the path of complacency from which The Donald will eject us like bad fruit. It will probably take 8 years and I probably won't be alive to see it but I do believe it will happen and the country will come out better for it.

The older I get the more optimistic I get. Maybe because I can almost see my own expiration date. And I don't have progeny who's future I need to fret. So yeah I think things will get better, but if they don't, I won't be around for any I told you sos.

I am pretty pessimistic.
TRump is a phoney and transparently so. It baffles me that people did not see thru him.
It baffles me that Hillary Clinton is claiming that SAnders cost her the election. I am really disappointed in her. There is a sense of entitlement about her.
Of course I am a big fan of Sanders.
