Many kids AND their parents are looking forward to the return of summer camps this year. However, here's what the CDC strongly recommends to keep our kids safe.

The news was announced Monday morning.

We know Whitehouse wants us to wear red tomorrow (Friday) to show some love for Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, but there is one more compelling reason to get behind the idea.

Who would have thought that when we started 2020 that not only would we have new words in our vocabulary. You know like social distancing, covid, maskne. We also had to deal with new conditions too.

Here we are in October. The year of constant change that is 2020 has somehow found a way to make it this far. That, of course, means that the Holiday's are just around the corner. How will they be different this year?

They knew what they were doing when they named it.

As you get older the idea of checking your blood pressure may become more of a reality for you. I never really knew what normal blood pressure really was. I would have to ask every time. Now I could recite the range the doctors look for.

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.

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.

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.
