COVID-19 Wk 52: Full Circle

It’s kind of fitting that today is Pi Day and it’s been a full year since COVID19 screwed up EVERYTHING. We’ve come full circle (pie, round, circle….see what I did there?)

COVID-19 Wk 50: Perspective

There has been a lot (constant) talk about mental health during the past year living with Covid-19.
