The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) reminds Texans that changes to the state’s Vehicle Safety Inspection Program – which eliminate most vehicle safety inspections – begin on Jan. 1, 2025. These changes are due to House Bill 3297. The bill was passed by the 88th Legislature and signed into law by Governor Greg Abbott in 2023, abolishing the Vehicle Safety Inspection Program for non-commercial vehicles.

The New Testament in the Bible tells us that hymns were sung by Jesus and the disciples. The word “hymn” from the Greek language is “hymnos”, meaning “songs of praise”. Hymns are different from Psalms according to Ephesians 5:19. Other than that not much is known about Christian hymns during the first three centuries of the Church.

Puppies are so adorable that you may feel tempted to adopt two instead of just one. Even though having two puppies may seem like a good idea, raising them together can cause longterm behavioral problems. Harmony Diers, a veterinary technician at the Texas A&M School of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, says that while these problems are not a guaranteed outcome of raising two puppies together, nor are they breed specific, littermate syndrome is more common than not when raising two puppies from the same litter, or even two close in age from separate litters.

Time has a way of getting ahead of me. Just when I think I’ve caught up, I find out I was wrong.

I needed a few things from the store. But, I had company coming, soon. So, I had to hurry. The store had most of the things on my list. I quickly placed them in the buggy. But, the thing I wanted most; they didn’t have. I wanted windshield washer fluid. I didn’t know how, to put it in the car. And it had been out, for a week or more. So, I intended to get one of my boys to fix that problem for me.
