Good News
Mike T.  - moved into their new "space" this week.  well half way moved in he said!
 
Noah - His daughter Ruth turned 5 years old!  This prompted an entire conversation on raising kids, especially through their "teenage" years, where Noah will become stupid and "not understand" for a decade
 
Heidi - Taking her son's significant other, Kelly, to an ultra sound to find out the genders of their expectant TWINS.  And we were feeling sorry for Noah and the upcoming teenage years?
 
Katie - 7 months sober! that is fabulous Katie!!!!  and also 20 pounds lighter
 
Todd - He raised his hands, but didnt share any good news.  Although Heidi jumped in to compliment his "nice hands and small feet".....somtimes I feel like I am missing something during these conversations.  I need to ask if I am the only 1?
Jokester

Math teacher: "If I have 5 bottles in one hand and 6 in the other hand, what do I have?"

Program
 
Heidi introduced our speaker; Melissa Roth from Pavey Law
 
Melissa spoke about "Case Law Impacting Employees" and other COVID19 related employment issue
 
She mentioned the impact of "Adele" on Ontario businesses and I spent the rest of the presentation trying to understand what an English singer had to do with COVID19?
 
Turns out she said "IDEL" - Infectious Disease Emergency Leave.  Oops.  God thing I got the presentation and will send it separately.
 
Katie thanked Melissa for sharing her knowledge in employment law and clarifying so many COVID19 related issues
