In the movies, someone having a warrant out for their arrest usually means some sort of high-speed chase is coming up, or maybe a SWAT team is en route to “have you surrounded.” It’s a very dramatic ordeal. Fast-paced, stressful, and life-ruining, it’s no wonder most people live in fear of receiving one for whatever…

It’s been a very, very long year. We have all gone through unimaginable hardship thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, and with the vaccines only now becoming fully accessible, we are finally starting to recover. Yes, COVID is still here.
