Sunday Zephyr – Clouds, Rain, Laughter.
Photo by Tevin Trinh on Unsplash Hows your Sunday going?’I spent some time in Orange this week and I noticed how many properties were for sale.

Sunday Zephyr – Giving clear instructions
Photo by Toa Heftiba on Unsplash How is your Sunday going? It was a very busy week for me loaded with a lot of communication, both from me and a lot of other people.
