Did you know?
Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be the national bird
In 1920 Gimbel’s department store in Philadelphia staged a parade of about 50 people with Santa Claus at the rear of the procession. Since 1924 the annual Macy’s parade in New York City has continued the tradition, with huge balloons since 1927.
A woman named Sarah Josepha Hale lobbied Congress for years to make Thanksgiving an official holiday. If it wasn't for this determined woman, Thanksgiving wouldn't exist today. In 1863 President Lincoln finally declared Thanksgiving a national holiday. Seeing as the President did this in throws of the Civil War, Thanksgiving is considered by some to be an attempt on behalf of the president to bring some peace back to the country.
Last week, the first patient was enrolled in our first virtual COVID-19 clinical trial at Family Care Research. The initial visit was quick -only about an hour- and the patient never had to leave the comfort and safety of their own home.

Each test comes with a prepaid shipping label that will be sent to a lab.
Results are then delivered by text or email and are ready within 48 to 72 hours.
Price says Albertsons can offer these tests for free thanks to a $357,000 grant, that has the potential to be doubled, from the Idaho State Board of Pharmacy.
"So, really if you are exposed, we want to make sure you have access to a test so that we are not continuing the spread of COVID-19," Price said.
Price added that she does not anticipate pharmacies running out as they have plenty of supply.

HAVE YOU EVER heard that it takes 21 one days to form a new habit?
A 2009 research study in the UK found that participants took actually 18 to 254 to do so.
THE #GOODNEWS: Some participants were able to occasionally skip the habit one time and still master it. In other words, you don't have to be "perfect" to reach that #newyearsresolution and 21 days is not realistic for everyone!
You've got this! 😉
