Well here we are in 2026. My west coast brother pointed out to me that we are a quarter of the way through the 21st century.
Do you remember the year 2000? My first husband and I had a big New Year's Eve party, lots of family and friends. While we had great fun there were some underlying uncertainties. One of my cousins was convinced that the 'second coming' would happen at the stroke of midnight so she and her husband left early.
The other concern was that our computer systems wouldn't make the leap from the 1900s to 2000.
Well the world didn't end, the computers functioned correctly and before we knew it we were in the 21st century. Although that technically didn't happen until 2021.
Now here I am, 25 years later, 25 years older, having lived through many more good days than bad, and just about to celebrate our second anniversary with my wonder spouse. Life really is full of surprises.
