The Little Things Matter

The LIttle Things Matter

I get the statement, “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff,” but I tend to disagree with it. I believe life is made up of the little things, and we must pay attention to them. Look at the world right now: it’s off the rails! Why? Because we stopped caring about the little things, and now the […]

Manners Still Matter: Be the Change!

Show some manners

The political ads have started and so has the mud-slinging. I’m sick of it already, and the election isn’t until November. Good gravy! What has happened?

Tea Party

Let's remember the Golden Rule and the importance of manner

I was very pleased to see our town respectfully holding American flags today in our fight to regain our country. We drove up and down the street honking our horn in support, and we heard many other folks doing the same. My only fear is that our outrage will disappear by week’s end. If you […]
