Yesterday I wrote and posted a Blog called, Believe It. (https://activerain.com/blogsview/5485106/believe-it-------#22595993) The post was featured and I was surprised because I don't generally get featured. In any event, today the feature was missing. I don't know what happened, but apparently s

Yesterday was a pretty good day. I went to the post office in the morning and sent off a birthday present to my best friend in New Jersey who I haven't seen since December. We had a visit scheduled last month, and then in May but it doesn't look like that will happen either so it was time to get

Yesterday I called my cousin to check in on her and her family in New York City. They are all fine and hanging in while doing the best they can. Unfortunately, she told me about her friend who called to say she had lost her partner to this virus. He was older and health compromised but he died a
