He has to be in his late 40's and in good health (as far as I can tell). And then I just learned today that a friend's 11 year old was diagnosed with it after 5 days of in person schooling. It's making me sad and tired. I'm sorry for the loss of those officers for your community. I can understand why an afternoon off would be good for your mind and soul. Plus you had some great books and AWESOME movies to help. <br /><br />Deanna @ A Novel Glimpsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08527505715939357796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051174949483344057.post-73621693148510419832021-08-22T18:00:32.160-04:002021-08-22T18:00:32.160-04:00I'm glad you got some time off and fun movies ...I'm glad you got some time off and fun movies in.
