The Quiet in Mid-November

Not much news to report from the Wyatt household this week; things have been rather quiet on the home front. That won't last for long, however, because we will have lots of family gathering at our home for Thanksgiving. Two of our three children, along with their families, will be arriving in the near future. There is lots of work to do between now and then, and all of that needs to start this week.

I hope you are doing well for the middle of November and that you enjoy the tips in this week's newsletter.
