Hello February! Tis the month for LOVE! Well, every day is for love, really, but as we’re all turning grey like the recent skies, it’s fun to have LOVE as the thing that helps us through this dreary month. And look – the sun is actually shining today! Yes, that’s a blue sky too! Oh boy!
Here’s what’s on my roster over the next couple of weeks…join in, come and watch, help promote – I appreciate it all! As always, spread the love, people, spread it good and wide!
