This has been quite the year. We started 2020 with so much hope. This was going to be our year. We were going to do things this year. We were going to try new things. Oh and we were going to reach those weight loss goals.

We already know a lot of health benefits of having a dog. I mean having a go to walk partner is great for you both. Having someone who loves you unconditionally when you get home from work....that is nice too.

Have you ever had that moment? You know the one I am talking about. You are on your way to work and you can't find your phone. It's not in your purse. It's not in your car seat. Where exactly is it?

So every July we head to Downtown Amarillo. Our goal is to win a new Harley and party the night away. The Harley Party for the Downtown Women's Center is a thing. I have been there a few years. Heck, supporting Family Support Services after the year they have had. We are all in.

It was a crazy couple of months for anyone who worked in the restaurant business. It still hasn't kicked back up full force. We still can only dine at fifty percent. That makes going out to eat sometimes tougher than we would like.

If I were to ask you about having a heart attack you would pass on that idea, right? I mean I am sure there are a lot more enjoyable things you would rather sign up to do. Well we can find a way to help us avoid it. We just have to do the work that is needed.

You know it is important to relax. If you think back and reflect on all that we have faced in 2020 you know this is true. You need to just calm down. If you can master that you will have many health benefits.

While 2020 has left a lot of us angry, stressed, and disappointed; there are those among us who have been trying to make the most of it.

You go in to the dentist and they ask you how often you floss. You may admit how you don't floss as much as you know you should. Does this seem familiar to you? I know I get asked that every time. I have gotten better at it. I at least try to remember a few times a week. That, I feel, is making…

If this year has taught us anything it is that we can finally be cleaner. We have been sanitizing things. We have been washing our sheets more. We are keeping those masks clean. Overall we want everything cleaner. We are doing a good job.

Things have changed a lot from the days when I was a kiddo. I remember how much I loved playing Pac Man at the arcade. Oh and I was getting pretty good at it. I never had Atari at my house. I would have to go to my best friends house if I wanted to play Pitfall, centipede or Pac Man.

It happens. You make plans to go grab a few drinks with your girlfriends after work. You meet up at Bubba's 33 and think about the last time you girls all got together. This was a good time because it's one of your friends birthday's. So a little celebrating on the Thursday night.
