Hi!

Here we are in fall again!

How do so many leaves fall off a tree and get scattered in so many different directions in one day?

How many more leaves are still on the tree that will turn and fall and be scattered in the days to come?

It almost makes one want to wait until all the leaves are off the tree before picking up a rake or broom. That might be better than raking and sweeping each day for many, many days to come.

If the wind we had on Monday could wait until all the leaves were ready to fall, then blow with those 30 mph-plus gusts, we could get all of the leaf-raking done at one time, couldn’t we?

This Saturday at 8 a.m., Waco Pentecostal Tabernacle, 322 Flint Road, will conduct a yard-and-bake-sale as its fall fundraiser. So, before you begin raking the leaves that fell this week, mosey on over and find yourself some treasures, perhaps something for an after-the-raking treat later in the day.

Get well wishes are sent to Leon Centers, who spent a couple of days in St. Joseph-Berea’s ICU last week. We’re pleased to say he’s home and doing much better.

Glad-you’re-better and hope-you-continue-to-get-better wishes go out to Gene Smith, who has had a rough time of it lately. After spending some time at the VA Hospital in Lexington, he, too, is now home and continuing to improve.

Good job on going through your artery “procedure” on Monday, Jerry Brandenburg! Who knew you could get in and out of a hospital so quickly? Kidding aside, we are glad everything went well and that you’re already out and about.

Congratulations to Aleisha Rose on the birth of her nephew, Ely James. Aleisha and her mom and dad (Tammy and Dennis Rose) traveled to Wisconsin last Friday to be with their daughter, Heather, and give their first grandchild a proper, in-person, welcome. Congratulations everyone.

Up and coming birthdays and warm wishes are sent this week to: Tina Horn, Dwayne Moberly and Monica Edwards, Oct. 2; Chandler Brandenburg, I-can’t-believe-he’ll-be-7 years old on Oct. 6; Sharon Lynn Davidson, Oct. 8; and to all the Waco area people with birthdays this week, we say salute!

Sympathies are extended to the family and friends of Donald Satterfield. May it help you to know that you’re in our thoughts and prayers.

That’s about it for this week. Have a great one!

Roadside clean-up set for Saturday How is everyone’s week going? I hope that everyone is having a great one. We have once again had a little mixture of weather, cool, rain, warm and sunshine. One can never tell what the March weather will be. Have you noticed the buttercups blooming? I also saw some bushes and trees blooming. I even saw a redbud tree blooming! There is such beauty in spring as it comes to life.

Take care of your community: Don’t litter! Hello readers. The late evening sun is shining through an upstairs window from where I’m sitting and I notice the brilliance of an outer ring that seems to flow toward the creek as it (sun) begins the journey into the night. I do love to just look and enjoy all we have on this Earth to appreciate. It’s always the little things that seem to make up the circle of life. Like the bright yellow daffodils blooming in Mrs. Callahan’s yard and the many buttercups alongside the road — the little things.

Volunteers needed for Union City Boy Scouts meeting Union City Baptist Church had a total of 60 people for the community soup supper last Saturday night. There were pinto beans, several different kinds of chili and some great desserts. While people were eating, some youths from the church provided a puppet show.

This may seem like the minutes of the last Monday’s Union City Ruritan meeting, but I am pleased to have so much news from local activities.

Waco Elementary honors Dr. Seuss How many times did you get pinched on Tuesday for not wearing green? How many times did you pinch yourself on Tuesday because you wanted to make sure you weren’t dreaming when the whole day was so spring-like beautiful? Ahhh, the birds chirping, the green finally peeping through the winter-brown ground, buttercups showing off their new spring bonnets and daylight after supper to enjoy a little porch time — it is getting here!

D-fend Against Colds Move over vitamin C. It’s vitamin D that seems to provide the strongest defense against the common cold, according to a recent study. Researchers at the University of Colorado studied 19,000 people about their health habits and took blood samples to determine the frequency of respiratory problems.

Killing Kevin I don’t watch much television. There are only a few shows I follow. I’ve come to care about the characters in those programs. They’re like family. So naturally it upsets me when homicidal scriptwriters kill them off. Without provocation — or my permission.

One of my favorite shows is “Monk,” about an obsessive, compulsive detective. Several episodes have featured his upstairs neighbor, Kevin Dorfman. Kevin is riddled with personality quirks. He talks too much — about nothing. He rambles on about all the places he’s ever lived.

God’s rainbow a sign of an everlasting relationship God’s promise of a rainbow in the clouds indicating a permanent and unbreakable bond between God and the creatures of His world is a strong and assuring promise that lies at the very foundation of Christianity. We are told throughout the scriptures that nothing can separate us from God, not even our own sinfulness. In all of life, there are few feelings, needs and insecurities that are more totally and completely fulfilled than when we have a firm and unquestionable conviction that we are not alone, and are wanted and loved! Amen.
