Happy Thursday, welcome to this weekly edition of A Note From Your Publisher! We hope you are having a wonderful week. As I was writing this week's newsletter the notorious trash thief climbed 13 foot high to get on my front porch. This in turn set off my Sadie girl (Australian Shepherd) which would love to chase and or eat it. But he is a cute trash panda even if he is making a mess.
We will be drawing a winner in the next few days for the Rooster Walk. Please keep an eye out on your email.
Have a wonderful week and thank you for being loyal subscribers & sponsors.
