I'm still reeling from the murder of the Reiners.

The night before they were murdered I watched one of my Top 10 films "This is Spinal Tap" and on Sunday I'd already recorded Spinal Tap 2 when I heard the news. It is being shown again right now and I can NOT watch it. I keep crying and crying when I should be laughing my head off.

2025 is the worst year ever!!!!! I didn't think it could get any worse but on Dec 14th it did.

This is a true and deep loss for you. Take it easy during this frantic season. Be kind to yourself. I suffered a recent loss so I tell myself to respect my grief, not try to overcome it, not try to 'just get over it'. Take care.

and accept the grief. By nature I am a very emotional and sensitive person....it sucks!

After John Lennon was murdered I wore nothing but black clothing for 1 month...you should see the Xmas photos from that year. I couldn't even pretend to smile. That was the year Raygun started as POTUS and the combination of these two events was hell for me. I feel the similarities now in 2025.
