Thanks for your patience.

The last 3 weeks have been a haze of sickness and medication reactions. As any entrepreneur knows, running an organization alone isn't easy when life hits hard. I'm glad to say that I'm finally feeling much closer to normal and looking forward to catching up on various aspects of Shasta Scout's business and editorial needs in the weeks ahead. All that to say, thanks for your patience if I haven't returned your call or email, or if you've wondered why I haven't published updates about the latest public meetings. With limited energy, I've focused on providing critical information that could help those in power, and all of us, work together to strengthen our local community. I hope it's helped.

Still forging ahead . . . just a little more slowly lately. :)
