Thank you to the people who left a message of kind words for me for the songs.
Congratulations Alexandria and Kaia on the artistry that went into making your paintings/wrist warmers.
We all craft in our own way. Though even that can be very hard on us, it’s nice when we ARE able to do these things.
Thank you to the organizers and all the hard work put in be all the volunteers and protesters.
We WILL find a cure!
