Where Are We NowSo much is beyond our control Sally and too much information is a dangerous thing to ones mental well being. So I decided to stop watching every news bulletin U tube blog etc which is too easy to get caught up in spending so much time at home . Coping with the new norm is hard enough for all of us everywhere. Stay safe Sally and take care x IreneViewDate:
