Not out in the public much, but this year with little grandson around, it is highly recommend all caretakers of young children have both a flu shot and the one for whooping cough.

Be creative on how you get your product out, sounds like you are working on figuring out what that means to you for your books :)<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1824539601044491117.post-67486590140404623152016-10-04T18:49:17.531-07:002016-10-04T18:49:17.531-07:00Glad you found a way to sell your books and that i...Glad you found a way to sell your books and that it's working out.
