i had been working for a company doing secretarial work for almost a year when covid prohibited me from going into the office. i continued to work for them for a couple months, but being a contract employee and working only a couple hours at a time contacting my boss through skype wasn't the easiest. i decided to get a new job and applied at the homestead in may. this is my niece taking a bit of one of our donuts.
