  Hello to you, and I hope you are well! Things are going pretty OK over here. My husband and I went and got some shrubs yesterday so we could start the process of planting a hedge.

Hello, and I hope you are well! Today, for some reason, I woke up thinking about an old friend who ditched me. She left me during one of the most challenging times in my life. I begged for her to remain friends, but she ignored me. One day, I thought she had decided to reach out to me, and I got so excited. It was in an email- all she said was, "Hi", so I wrote back and told her how happy I was...
