I recently started using a white noise app and sleep mask which has remarkably improved my sleeping. I can now easily sleep eight hours without interruption (expect to go to the bathroom on some days) and feel more alert during the day. How many hours of sleep do you get? Do you have any routines before bedtime to help?

Golden Corral will be opening in a new Concord location right across from the Veranda shopping center where Hometown Buffet used to be. Their closest nearby locations are in Sacramento and Tracy. Check out nutrition details for their menu items here.
From their website:
When the first Golden Corral® restaurant opened in Fayetteville, North Carolina in 1973, Golden Corral Corporation took a confident first step in the restaurant business, beginning a tradition of offering guests real, wholesome foods in a family-friendly atmosphere and at a great value. Nearly 45 years later, Golden Corral® is honored to be called America’s #1 buffet and grill.
1380 N. California Blvd, Walnut Creek
McDonald’s closed almost four years ago in downtown Walnut Creek and as you can see from the above photo demolition has taken place and a new mixed-use 5 story development is being built with over 10,000 sf of retail shops and close to 100 apartments, some of them being “flexible-use studios”. Look for this to be completed by the end of next year!

The Shops at Todos Santos, Concord
Of all the restaurants coming to the new Shops at Todos Santos plaza in Concord it’s not surprising that Chipotle is making the most progress.
Thanks to a reader who emailed that they are planning to open mid-January.

This happened a while ago but GNC closed at the Lafayette shopping center. This is where Handlebar Toys used to be over 6 years ago!
