Already checked on all vaccination status in my house, told a friend to do the same. She was shocked. I told her I hope I'm being overly paranoid but I'd rather make sure everyone is fully up to date ASAP. Good advice about the meds.

As a girl scout leader that's 10.5 cases. Do you realize how heavy those are? Random fact is that thin mints are the heaviest cookies. When you're moving hundreds of them these facts matter 🤣

Going for a walk with friends exploring a new to me park. Will be a great place to take the dog!

Always appreciate the snow angels in the neighbourhood who clear the snowplow pile at the end of my driveway for me.

Good start to a hockey tournament. We lost the first game but my goalie played so well the 2 periods he was in net that he received player of the game!

I do that regularly in North Dakota when mother nature allows me too! It's always terrible in the spring when I frantically have to find room in my inside deep freezer for the food that's been living on my deck for a few months.

Raffi was the very first concert I attended! I still remember it. Must have been 5 or 6 years old. His CDs were the first I bought when I had kids.
