AG + G Weekly Wrap-UP #6
January & Beginnings
Hello friends! I love these snowy images. They bring to mind cozy, comfy, dreamy, quiet, wintering. I’m here for it. Hoping 2024 brings us at least one big snowfall. I live in Maryland and we haven’t had one for a few years. The forecast is calling for snow / rain today. Here’s hoping for snow!! Have you gotten snow yet?

The Golden Bachelor Wedding
Gerry + Theresa = Happily Ever After
The Golden Bachelor’s first season wrapped up with the wedding on Jan 4th. Officiated by Susan, of course, and featuring many of our favorite contestants in the audience. I hope tv/movie writers, creators, and producers take note that those of us over 50 desire shows about us. We are an untapped segment of the population. Here’s to the future and many other types of shows featuring the 50 and up age group.

Thanks for the suggestion to check out Catherine's substack and the great book! I love the title. I enjoyed our interview and look forward to great connections this coming year.
Hi Kathi,
We've had one 4" snowfall and getting another 3-8" tomorrow. I wish I'd known you didn't have any in Maryland last year - I'd have sent you some of our 163" record snowfall from Flagstaff, Arizona! :) Hope you are enjoying snow today!
