Did you ever think that hand sanitizer would become one of the most important products of 2020? I mean between that and toilet paper….who knew? Yep, it is a thing. You see people using it all the time. Especially now. You can get the normal unscented kind or even the fancy smelling stuff from Bath & Body Works.

Of course this is the real world and we know that junk food is not good for us. Not good for our bodies. Not good for our brains. We need to cut out as much as we possibly can. It seems during this pandemic we easily have more junk food at the house.

I know it seems like something that should be easy to do. Relax a little. Right? I mean all we have to do is stop totally what we are doing. Stop everything. Like we have that much time on our hands.

Who would ever think that there are so many ways we can get hurt while cleaning? Is this a way to stop doing just that? Well no. We need to find ways to not live in a mess but not kill ourselves in the process too.

We have luckily started getting really good and washing our hands. They can be full of so many germs, viruses and gross things that can make us sick. We know warm water and soap is the best defense. Oh and yes we need to scrub for at least twenty seconds. Don't forget it is also important to dry our hands well too

Growing up I had plants all over the house. I felt like I was living in a jungle. My mom definitely had a green thumb. Me, not so much! I can successfully kill a cactus I am afraid. I heard time and time again how having all those plants were good for us. We had really clean air in my house thanks to them.

We are still spending a lot of time in our houses. Even though Texas and with that Amarillo is starting to slowly open up. A lot of us are taking it slow as well. So a lot of time is still close by.

At Coffee Memorial Blood Center, their doors have remained open to help save people’s lives. During the COVID-19 crisis the need for blood donations is reaching alarming proportions.

Has this been a weird year or what? I mean even though the state of Texas is slowly opening up it's still made things tough on us. This is, of course, is definitely true if you are a parent.

You always have good intentions. I will go to sleep at a decent time tonight. I will get up on time and maybe even get a little exercise in. It used to be that you would think "hey getting to work only takes me ten minutes" Heck pretty much everything is ten minutes away here in Amarillo.

With the Amarillo region being a hotspot for Covid-19, Mayor Nelson has requested the CDC aid in the city's response to the pandemic.

It used to be that we didn't have time to workout. Then we were on lock down and we had all the time in the world. Have we been working out? Some may say a very big yes. For those of you I am extremely proud.
