If you were a guest of mine during this last year or past years you are invited to be on this show. I am doing my annual Holiday show this year on Decemat 4pm Eastern time. I didn't have a November show, because there was too much to do that month. But if you are interested in reading a bit of it you should click here for a free chapter. I am hoping to publish the entire Mill Valley High series by next year. Unfortunately, I don't think I can get them out for Christmas, but please expect the new and improved version of If I Could Be Like Jennifer Taylor with a new cover soon. So, anyone who loved my books, they will be available again for readers ages 10 and up. I spoke with someone in the business today and I am probably going to republish with Amazon or Ingraham. So I have to find a way to republish my books. On another note, my publisher went out of business. Actually, I usually put on my mask in the car and walk to the store with it on. But then I get to the store and have to put it on. Sometimes, I walk out of the car without my mask and pretend that everything is the same. You never know when you will need your mask. So having one is important if you are going out. But wearing a mask is a sign that you care about people and your own health. Some hold them in their hands and some put them on a wrist and others wear them on their chins. Also, the way people use them is interesting. Masks have become so normal that people are using them as accessories.

We had them on and took them off and then when there were too many people we put them back on again.

Yesterday was wonderful and seeing all of the people I have known for so long in person was the best.

But there is nothing like hugging your friend. I have learned to tutor online and to have meetings online and speak to friends on Facetime. So it's back to online everything again for awhile. We decided to move our theater tickets to another date, while they figure out how to combat this one. Today there is news that this variant is now in the United States. Then I went home and read about omicron, the new variant. We all had to show proof of vaccination before we could come. I saw all my friends and hugged them with and without a mask. This was the first one we have had in two years. Yesterday, I went to my Greenwich Pen Women Holiday luncheon. I spent months worrying and then got my shots and now my booster shot and thought I could go out again. Lately, my world has expanded and just as I feel I can go back to normal there is a new strain of Covid that is going to dampen my outlook and make me worry again. During this year my focus has been mainly my computer and my family.
