Hope this finds all my readers doing well today! It is a cold and windy Sunday, at least the sun is shining, and that helps just a little. I’m ready for it to warm back up anytime. Ray and I are doing well. We got out today and put away our Christmas stuff. I finally took down the tree and boxed up decorations and then we got outside and took down what few decorations and lights I had up and put them all away. I wasn’t in a hurry to get them out and wasn’t in a hurry to put them away. Guess I don’t get in a hurry about much anymore. I can’t hurry, I just do good to get it done! We didn’t have church today. I guess we thought this Covid stuff is getting to close. Last Monday there were 51 cases reported and yesterday there were 92 reported. That’s a lot in our little county. I know of 2 that are in the hospital with it. Say prayers for all those sick, and also for those who have lost loved ones. Sure wish this stuff would go away.
