  1. NYSEG has done nothing regarding maintenance of lines, poles, etc. during the last 10+ years. Lines are overgrown with tree branches, something that used to be regularly taken care of. We had a business and a portion of profits was factored for maintenance and improvements. Instead of expecting consumers to pay this outrageous increase, dip into those Corporate profits to take care of what should have been done all along. Further, I don’t understand why an American utility company was allowed to be sold to a foreign corporation. As for Hochul’s plan to go green, what good does it do to ruin this State to achieve that when Countries like China, India and others continue with business as usual. Hochul’s goal is like trying to find a drop of water in a gallon bucket. Sticking it to the residents of this State won’t stop the melting ice caps and World wide it won’t make a bit of difference except to drive people out of the State.

    “I’ve known love. In fact, I know her so well, she took my last name.” I love reading your stories but I had to read the above quote from your story four times…..it’s so simple and so beautiful. Loud-Talker has nothing on you, you definitely founded yourself. Thank you for sharing.
  3. I think Honey would be happy with the light you are sharing.

    Good

    Reading this was just what I needed at this time, thank you.
  5. My Grandmother started me on my letter writing journey when she showed me a letter from her brother who still lived in Ireland. I was 10 years old and asked her if I could write to him too and she included my letter with her’s. I remember my surprise and joy at receiving his letter addressed to me and that was the beginning of 20 plus years of correspondence between Uncle Pete and I. Letters are sharing parts of yourself with others, your thoughts, dreams, hope, they are love, advice when needed. Letters are wonderful and I’ve missed writing them. I think it’s time to begin writing again. Thank you for this reminder.
  6. What I don’t understand is how these Albany Elites can’t see that what NYS is mandating to stop/heal climate change has no effect whatsoever on the world’s climate. As long as Countries like China, India, Russia and others continue using existing, reliable forms of energy it makes no difference. I believe it’s the desire to “be first” that is driving these ridiculous decisions. Instead of talk about Canada being the 51st State I’d like to see Upstate NY be the 51st State.
  7. We haven’t had corned beef in years. I thought I read somewhere that corned beef was an American idea to go with cabbage. I remember my Irish grandmother cooking ham and cabbage 🤷‍♀️
  8. This was a wonderful read, thank you.
  9. I also believe electronic devices have become great babysitters for many individuals with small children. It keeps them occupied while they do their own thing, often on smart phone.
  10. Obviously Albany believes the tax paying cash cow will continue to produce. What happens when those receiving out number those paying?
  11. I’ve never watched Elf, couldn’t finish Home Alone but enjoy Christmas Vacation. As far as Hallmark’s Christmas movies go I prefer the older movies that actually have a touch of Christmas magic, like “Five More Minutes”. My go to Christmas movie is “A Christmas Carol”, Reginald Owen, Alastair Sims, Patrick Stewart and saving George C. Scott for Christmas night.
  12. This was beautiful, thank you Linda and Merry Christmas.
  13. I watched it once, that was enough for me.
  14. Upstate voters don’t stand a chance getting these fools out of office.
  15. I truly can not understand how people let politics come between themselves and their families and friends. You like a candidate’s ideas, you vote for him/her. Sometimes they win and sometimes they lose. Why separate yourself from loved ones for individuals who wouldn’t recognize you if you stood in front of them. They got your vote, that’s all that matters to the candidate or the political party. You need a babysitter, a ride to work, help with something, anything……try calling your candidate and see how quickly they are there for you.
