           Hi everyone. 
           <div>

            <div>
             I miss you and love you and have been thinking of you!
            </div>
            <div>
             <br>
             <div>
              I’ve been pretty recalcitrant and sincereley apologize to you all for my silence and non-participation. 
             </div>
             <div>
              But I can reconsider with your encouragement. 
             </div>
             <div>
              I’m triple vaxxed BUT now that we’ve seen Covid infections up and winter coming in I’m more reluctant that I have been to get out there. I did have one singing gig a few weeks ago that made me happy but….now….I won’t be doing that until the spring.
             </div>
             <div>
              <br>
             </div>
             <div>
              Additionally, I hate singing in a mask and hate more doing music (and services) via Zoom.

              <br>
             </div>
             <div>
              So these are lots of hurdles for me, but I’d be up for doing duets/trios or whatever if we can make that work; I welcome suggestions! I’ve been asked to produce a Youtube for the Xmas fair, so if any of you want to do harmony with me on a song or three please reach out!

                             <br>> Of course we must continue with masking and distancing too.
