I wrote the other day about how very little of what we now need to be doing as far as social distancing/self isolation/whatever you want to call it, is new for me. I do hate it, both having to admit that, and I really hate living it. But, like so many things I’ve experienced ,I [...]

Crazy Times, y’all... Obviously there’s a lot to talk about, and I’m sere you’ll hear a lot from me on many topics, but today I’m going to try to stay on topic while still sharing how I’m making the best of a hard and crazy situation, and maybe-hopefully- helping you find new ways to do [...]
