A

At the to the rotary club at lexington park regarding, you know what you can do to kind of.

A

A

Out in the sun and get some vitamin d, lord knows we've all spent too much time in the house and.

This, the coved budget, I still don't believe the actual impacts of uh covet 19 on our workforce.

A

A

And what I worry about is once these federal and state stimulus funds wear out uh or are spent and.

A

They're not reoccurring that we're hoping this economic activity comes back.

A

The lord knows, I hope it does. I'm just worried that it's not going to be as fast as we think.

A

And that will still have the effects of covet, so I still want to say we need to be cautious.

A

I'm going to be conservative and just trying to stay consistent. Thank you.
