Hello there! For this report, I just wanted to leave you with this quote from @33fighterwing #motivationmonday “Reach for the stars! Now is better than ever to accomplish your personal and professional goals, sign up for school, volunteer in your community or any other goals you’ve had on your todo list.”

As always, please continue to wear a mask when out in public. California was doing great, then everything reopened and people didn’t social distance while wearing masks, then COVID-19 infections increased. This is terrible. Please wear a mask when you’re out in public. It’s really important. We have thousands of videos from doctors and nurses crying every time they lose yet another patient. Doctors and Nurses are asking for compassion. Please wear a mask. Thank you!

Until next time!
