Jimmy Carter, New Year's Resolutions and Christmas Experiences

Yá'át'ééh my relatives. Today I am discussing the legacy of Jimmy Carter, often described as "the only man in history to use the American presidency as a stepping stone to greatness." I will also touch on New Year's Resolutions and a new Christmas tradition our family started this year of giving each other experiences instead of gifts. I invite you to join me for My first Second Cup of Coffee of 2025.
