Hi Sandie

So good to hear from you. I am sure another sleepless

night. Glad to know you are off today. Maybe you can

catch up on some sleep. Our weather here is normal I

guess you would say. It is in the 80's and sunny. We

did a a few misty drips of rain on Wednesday. That was

weird for us. Hope this tumultuous Spring ends soon

for you all, June include.
