So far, it has been an action packed August with a really positive piece of information that I’ll be able to share in September. One item that I can share is that I’ll be moving, so I’ll be focusing on Spring cleaning and getting rid of items I haven’t used for some time. The administrative side of moving (maybe the physical aspect, too) is what I dread the most, as having to update my address at so many different locations is a slog!
If you all have any questions about the items below, please feel free to reach out as I am always glad to share my thoughts.
