This week got off to a rough start; I took a header in the garden and smashed into a decorative rock. Yes, it hurt right away 🙂 My daughter and grandson left for New Zealand Monday. As many of you know, she’s moving toward her doctorate in biology and was accepted to a university in…

#BookReview Tuesday- @Melissa_Foster, Sharon Wray, @piketoni1 #readingcommunity
