    October is Repair and Refresh the House Month

    ByMary Crozier October 3, 2022October 3, 2022

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier July 8, 2022July 9, 2022

    Hello, my friends! I feel like a new woman as my Grand Jury duty responsibilities are O.V.E.R.! Thankfully I didn’t have to serve the full four months, but only the last 4 weeks. Taking two full days each week is a bit of a schedule challenge, but I found serving in this capacity somewhat rewarding….
