Season’s Greetings
We know the holidays are hitting a little differently this year. And it is more than understandable if you, like most of us, are fatigued with this pandemic, with the divisive politics that America has become known for, and with the many struggles and uncertainty that 2020 has brought.

New Year, Newish Me!
AmPopsy…It’s that time again!! You know what it is…it comes every year like clockwork- Happy New Year!! And much like preparing your annual tax return, it is a time for an endless supply of hope that you will receive a kind of windfall in life, quietly fearing the truth will be quite the opposite.
