After two days of not providing links, I’m back today and let’s get caught up. Thank you for your patience. Next week may be a light week for links as well, but that’s by design and that’s due to my own plans. I’ll explain that as we get closer to Thursday when I’ll be away from the desk. But, I’ll have my computer with me, so I hope to be able to give you some posts on Thursday and Friday. Again, I’ll have full explanations down the road.
