Exhausted

Posted on June 3, 2021 by Frog

The last person who was let go in April left today. I was in the office when she dropped off her equipment. I was really glad to see her, but I was in meetings from 8:45-4 with minimal time in … Continue reading →

A Week Later

Posted on April 15, 2021 by Frog
