I do know the feeling of being homeless, but at least we had a very small camping trailer to sleep in and, PTL, it was only for a months or so! Thanks for the opportunity to be gifted a copy of one of your books, Catherine. Wishing you and all the HHH bloggers a blessed Christmas season.<br />bettimace AT gmail DOT comBettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14645337615635154815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-59469140893219301202020-12-17T08:18:18.816-05:002020-12-17T08:18:18.816-05:00I terrible time in history but we did recover.

And I know about homelessness now, but I've never actually seen the places where they congregate. I appreciate all of the research you authors do to present an authentic story, but surely your heart must break a bit as you view the harsh realities.
