Yeah, you probably know where this is going. Or at least, have a few educated guesses. I'll be honest. 2020 has not been the worst year of my life. (For those interested, that was 2017, but that's its own story.) But 2020 hasn't been the greatest either. Some say that these problems came out of … Continue reading Thoughts on 2020 (So Far…)

In case you're wondering, this is tied to my previous post, HOPE and COVID-19. Since that time, the lock-down has been extended to April 30th.
