IMPORTANT UPDATE ON TONIGHT'S CLASS

Here at home, we have been dealing with a refrigerator that has been having issues. A new one was hoping to be here a little earlier today, but now it’s going to be here about an hour before class. Because of the potential noise, distraction and my assistance to my husband and his friend, I will be unable to lead the class. My apologies for that.

HOWEVER --- What I will do is so we don’t lose any of our 4 weeks this month that I have planned for the series is right now I will make a recording of the class that I would have taught later tonight and get it out to you as soon as I can.

Thank you for your understanding and patience!

For Tonight's Class 8/6/24: Please have a small food item like a raisin, nut, small cracker or similar for our first practice.
