Back on 01 January 2024 I thought my word for this year would be surprise
. Well, with Deb's gallbladder op, our travel delays, and both of us catching Covid, I don't feel that's worked out too well so far.
Deb has suggested a better word: Spontaneous
. Much better!

I hear this! I made "Embrace radical uncertainty" my phrase for 2022 and then in mid-January my mom was diagnosed with leukemia. I love your new word!

@KimberlyHirsh Oh dear! We need to be careful what we say to the Universe, I guess!
