I want to thank everyone who checks in to catch up on news and bring folks up to date on my activities and projects. COVID restrictions and my own classification as a high-risk person has significantly altered my ability to interact with others. I am not teaching BLS/CPR at this time but have retained all of my credentials with both American Heart Association and American Red Cross. Because of the excellent safety protocols put in place at Master The Possibilities I have taught Hands-Only CPR and my new class “Lucid Dreaming: Another Altered State of Mind” in-person and have had great success and wonderful students fully participate in both classes. I am also in the final stages of editing a writing project about recipes and have collaborated with my talented granddaughter in designing a cover. I continue to write short stories and am dabbling in poetry.

I cannot emphasize enough the need to be vigilant, cautious, and leery about any and all solicitations about COVID cures, vaccines, tests, cures etc. Scammers are opportunists who lurk in the background and feed on fears and insecurities and the misfortunes of others. Please watch out for others who are vulnerable and frightened. Heed the advice of professionals like the FTC who carefully follow the trends of dishonesty and deceit being played out around the world. Take a moment or two to think before making any decisions. Staying safe during these difficult times has more than one meaning. Wishing everyone health, happiness, and safety in the year to come.
