Hello Everyone!
WOW, it's hard to believe this marks 6 months of email blasts due to the Pandemic! Time has certainly had a very different meaning for me over the past half a year. In some ways the time has flown by and in others it has dragged. What I truly miss the most is the in person connection and HUGS!! What do you miss the most?
