My daughter told me the other day that she has started meditating every evening. It seems that she has greatly benefited from this experience. My first thought was, “How does she have time?” She has two children aged three and eight.

The next thing we know is that three out of five New York doctors agree that watching television may be hazardous to our health.

Texas has the fourth-lowest nurse-to-population ratio in the country, with only 9.25 nurses per 1,000 residents, according to a recent report by the comptroller’s office.

The other morning when it was minus four degrees, I couldn’t believe the calendar. It said it was April… almost May, and someone left the air conditioner set on summertime. The floor was cold, the fans were blowing in their summer-time downward mode. I was dressed in my lightweight, fifteen-year-old gown which had nothing to do with warmth. I was covered, but my chill-bumps showed through the cotton. It was cold.

Folks who may have spent too much time in the environs of hog farms perhaps came by the odor honestly, simply a result of growing up years.

Trail cameras have come a long way since the first one I used several decades ago. A company out of Louisiana sent me a ‘flim’ camera that actually recorded photos on 35 mm. film.

Haven’t seen the light in days.
