Here we are, well into summertime, for my first blog entry in 2020. Do people still read blogs these days? I know I haven’t in a long time, but since my last life update was over a year ago, I thought I’d give this a shot. I’ve been meaning to get back on here anyway, so now seems to be a swell time to do so. Will it be deemed inappropriate if I still wish you all a happy new year with everything that’s happened between then and now? Genuine question: how are you all doing? How are you coping
