Hi all! I recently moved my old site to WIX and unfortunately the transfer did not go as advertised. Some parts have been deleted, other bits added from goodness knows where. I am working through my blog posts slowly to update them. There is still good info there but it is a bit muddled, I appreciate your patience while I work on them.
