It's been so fun to see you at practice these last two Thursdays! I'm sorry I haven't been able to talk, I would really love to get to know you better.
I do have some things I would love to tell you about, if you don't mind me taking your email address from the HPA lists. We aren't supposed to stalk and spam people. :)
Blessings!
