Friday Notes 089 – February 7 2020
by
Sigh, this week has been tough. I ended up with about 5 hours put into recording a video for my daughter’s school so that we can apply for a library grant. I found out that their entire budget for books and supplies is $1500. That’s less than I spent on my personal books for me…
