Good morning CARATs. Are you guys taking care of your health? Be careful not to catch a cold CARATs. You can’t be sick. I really really miss you. I’ve been going on morning runs, and it helps empty out everything. Try running if you have a lot of thoughts. Or try going for a walk while looking at the scenery.

Always look at beautiful things and always be happy, ok CARATs? I’m off to my schedule now, CARATs!
