I think there have been two occasions that Matthew reported to me something missing. I spoke with Sarah after I sent this email. I agreed to send tye care notes on Wednesday mornings. She said as long as care notes arrive before or with invoices all is well. That is an easy enough request for me to fulfill. So I am happy to meet with you and Amelia but I am hoping we have a work around that will satisfy Sarah=E2=80=99s request.
