Sunday should be a day of relaxation with some enjoyable activities. Visit you church or other place of worship and remember and pray for our sick family and friends, pray for those who are struggling to make ends meet, and pray for peace and stability in the world. Maybe you to catch some spring training ball from Florida or the cactus league. Whatever you want to do have fun doing it for tomorrow starts another week of drudgery. As always, keep safe and keep smiling.
