Sunday Letter: 08.01.21

Sunday Letter

Dear Sunday Letter friends,

Happy August! Ready or not, here we go headfirst into the downhill side of summer. Dang, it is HUMID here in northwest Arkansas. We’ve been promised a break in the heat this week, and I’m keeping my fingers and toes crossed.

So I scramble a few thoughts together, all the while wondering if this might be my last letter for awhile. And then I do the same thing the next week. And I suppose I will continue this word scramble until I don’t.

Thanks for being here.Continue Reading

Sunday Letter

Dear Sunday Letter friends,

Hey, hey, I hope everyone is doing well. I’m great, other than I’m still super annoyed about the Razorback loss to Auburn yesterday. I’m typically not a sore loser. I promise, I’m not.

Let’s just not discuss it.

But seriously, that ridiculous call… ¯\_( ͡❛ ෴ ͡❛)_/¯
