We will never forget...

Body
This week we remember the day that the world stopped turning for a brief moment in time. As people watched in horror while those two towers fell, everyone knew America would never be the same. Still, this dreadful day revealed our nation’s true colors and taught us something wonderful about ourselves. America The Brave will band together in times of need. Amidst broken hearts, we stood tall and helped our fellow man along. We mourned in such a way that begged our humanity to reveal itself. This month, there are flags in the Courthouse square to remind us of this land’s bravery, liberty, and sacrifice. When you see these flags, I encourage you to take a moment to think on these words from Senator John Coryn’s newsletter.

Memories and Musings

Body
My new Chevrolet is about to need re-tiring, that is, a new set of tires. It came with black walltires and I was thinking of sprucing it up a bit with a new set of whitewall tires. I know they are more trouble to keep clean, but the white dust in my neighborhood would be less visible on a whitewall tire.

Moments Revisted

I had been “face timing” with my great granddaughter for about an hour. I loved watching her expressions; as she talked. She is seven years old and speaks like an adult. Even uses words that I don’t use much. If she isn’t a genius, she’s close to it. I am so thankful for modern day technology.

Reminiscin’

Body
I got my first (and only) school paddling in 1947 when I was a freshman at the Center, Texas High School. When Mrs. Menefee asked us to raise our hands if we had done our homework, everyone raised a hand…. except me…and Frank Bryan Cooper. And when she told us to “go to the office”, we both knew we were about to face “Old Smokey’ - Mr. Malone’s paddle.

Pet Talk

Body
a service of Texas A&M Veterinary School The first stop after getting a new cat is usually the pet store for food, toys, and furniture, with a litter box being a top priority. You may not give much attention to the box itself or the cleaning etiquette it takes to care for them, but there can be messy consequences if cats are not on board with their new restroom.
