Leonard Cohen died. Janet Wright died. Gwen Ifill died. 2016 just keeps on sucking.

Today's prompt:
Nov. 14: What was it like to be you in 2016?
It involved a lot of driving. My mom was diagnosed with lymphoma in...March? April? Something like that, and asked if I could accompany her to her chemo/doctor appointments. I could and did, but navigating rush hour traffic was challenging, to say the least. It's normally a 45 minute drive to her place, but there were a few days where it took two hours. (How do people do that every day, five or more days a week? How???) By the time I got there, I was ready for a nap, and the day had hardly begun. On the upside, she's been given the all-clear and she's doing well. But the driving? I do not miss it. (And let's not even start on parking at the hospital.)

Today's one word prompt is: Fish. Which made me think of this:
They look so cool. But fish are alive and it really would be hard to keep them so in something this small. But I like the idea in principle.
