Glad you made it through the scary weather. I’m sorry about your grandmother.

I don’t think I’ve been up to as much as you. But I’m hoping the next few months I start hearing some good news about some things I have going on right now.

I feel like I haven’t really done all that much but when I started putting together this post, I was shocked! Fingers crossed for good news! 🙂
