                                                                                                                                      We were still uncomfortable meeting in person, so we decided to remain on
                                                                                                                                      zoom for our meetings but opted not to stress out over ideas for gift boxes
                                                                                                                                      and themed on-line meetings. We had so many great themed on-line
                                                                                                                                      meetings in 2020 we felt we’d outdone ourselves and were left without
                                                                                                                                      new ideas. With that said, we truly enjoyed using our on-line zoom
                                                                                                                                      meetings to just chit chat, catch up and share what was
                                                                                                                                      happening in our lives.

                                                                                                                                      and brought us
