Hey everyone! I know it seems like just yesterday we had our very first reader survey, but this one is a bit different. While you will be grading me, you will also help me decide the direction for this blog for the rest of this summer, because this is technically your blog and I am […]
Hey everyone…so how have you been? If you haven’t noticed yet I have been absent for about 2 weeks now.
