Awareness





My life has been going a mile a minute and I feel like I am trying to catch up. Erin graduated sixth grade and is on her way to the seventh grade for next year. The Covid 19 Pandemic has really had its toll on our lives. The Black Lives Matter revolution continues to march and protest for the victims Breonna Taylor and George Floyd Our nit wit president Troll is acting like a jack ass he won't wear his mask publicly.
