2025 sucks so far

 On a personal note 2025 sucks.

January 1 A kitchen plug short circuited. We won't be able to get anyone to look at it until Monday. Most places in Switzerland are closed over the two holiday weeks, which normally I love.

January 2 Problems with Netflix. Too long a story.

January 3 A call from the vet that we had an appointment for Sherlock. Rushed out to find that despite the tarp, the windows had to be scraped. At least the dog survived his tooth cleaning.

January 4 Dog is coughing.

January 5 When we went to the payment machine at the garage it was out of order.

On a world view

Genocide is continuing in the Gaza.

The people being appointed to the new U.S. Cabinet seem at best to be incompetent. At the worse they are oligarchs. 

There have been mass murders in New Orleans, Montenegro and elsewhere.

South Korea is a mess.

Musk is siding with the German far right. 

Conclusion

My husband and I tried to do News Detox after the election. Little by little we "peeked."

If only we could change the catastrophes happening.
