Is it 2022 yet?
Hello, Readers All,
I think we can all admit that 2021 is already basically a wash. We’ll mask up (did I mention I’m wearing two masks now, doubled up?), grit out teeth and get through it mostly by being there for each other.
And by going to fancy hotels when the rates are right...........as they are now.

And there we go. Another week on time and with some great new work - if I do say so myself. Which I do. Let me know what you think.
Ah, and the hat’s here by the door. As ever, heart-felt thanks to those who kindly drop coins in it week to week. During my years working as a hotel maid, finding two or three bucks in a room is enough to keep one from losing all hope.
You, readers and subscribers and all around fabulous people, you keep this one from losing all hope.
As ever, feel free to drop lingering suspicions and outright accusations at: Remington.Write@gmail.com
I’m lost without you. RW
