I've found June to be a really odd, stressful month. You know when you have "one of those months"?
Can't wait for it to end
But I agree; when July hits, the months whizz by

Whusky. Hoping that all is well with you. Some months are like that aren't they? All we can do is keep moving towards that light at the end of the tunnel.
Sending best wishes.
