Guest Groups: Chase Away the After-Holiday Blues
I know, most of us visit January and February looming ahead after the holidays and start to panic a little with spring nowhere in sight. Why don’t you bring some of the cheer of the months past with you and straight into the new calendar year? Just because it is cold and snowy doesn’t mean it can’t be fun. Hope you enjoy. — Melissa from Melissa Loves
