Hi!

It is so difficult to believe that October is nearly at an end. Of course, we’ve already had winter — that was last week!

Also last week, the Waco Volunteer Firefighters had a busy Wednesday. After putting on a fire safety program for the students at Waco Elementary, the firefighters responded to two calls, one at Greens Circle where they found a possible electrical short in a mobile home, then to a call at Estonia Estates which turned out to be a “controlled burn” creating lots of smoke.

If you’re not already booked, don’t forget the Pumpkin Run this Saturday at 9 a.m. Memorial Battlefield. Waco Elementary needs your help in having the most participants to win “big bucks!”

More goings on at Waco Elementary. Next week is the Fall Book Fair. Be sure to bring the family to the school on Tuesday around 6 p.m. for Family Night. There’s always a surprise “special guest” on hand, so, see you there!

Thursday at 6:30 p.m., Flatwoods Christian Church will present preview of the Financial Peace University program by Dave Ramsey. This is a free class offered to anyone in driving distance directed by Kentucky River Foothills. Also on Thursday at 7 p.m., anyone who plays instruments is invited to come to Flatwoods Church for a pickin’ and grinnin’ session.

Emily Madison Edwards had a lot going on at her house on Sunday. She turned three years old and, of course, had a family party to help her celebrate! Emily is the daughter of Bill and Monica Edwards, and is the sister of Will, of Shirdell Drive.

Happy birthday wishes go out to Calvin Marshall, Oct. 26, and to Caleb Henderson, Oct. 24.

Chandler Brandenburg, mom, dad and sister Jessica spent last weekend on a pirate ship. Well, sort of. For one of his birthday gifts, Chandler received a night’s stay in the pirate ship-themed room at Wildwood Inn in Florence, Ky. The family had a great time and barely left the room there was so much to do and explore!

The Brandenburgs were not the only visitors up Florence way. The flu is making its rounds among family members up north — Mamaw Betty Anglin, sister Judy and (her husband) Dave Taylor were all feeling the effects. Hope you’re feeling better this week!

Deepest sympathies are extended to the family of Ann Richardson who passed away last week. To Don and the rest of the family, may it help you to know you are in the thoughts and prayers of your many friends and neighbors at this time.

That’s about it for this week. Watch out for the rain to return this weekend. Have a great one!

Is MSG (monosodium glutamate) harmful?
Monsodium gluatamate (MSG) is a flavor enhancer often added to Chinese food, soups, processed meats and canned vegetables. The use of MSG remains controversial despite a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) statement that it is safe. Because of this, the FDA requires that whenever MSG is added, that it be listed on the label.

Common-sense job hunting
I spent a day with a high-powered and high-profile friend who mentioned that he has more than 700 people a year ask him to help get a new job.
He’s not in the employment business, but is super well connected.
Every now and then, he gets the right person to the right job.

It’s a love thing
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all the day long, we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus, our Lord.” — Romans 8:35-39

Managing the calving season
Providing sound management during the calving season can mean more live calves.
Excessive losses can mean the difference between a year’s profit or loss for a beef producer.
It is important to have a short calving period to allow frequent observation and assistance if needed.

Spinach: It’s not just for Popeye anymore
A spinach-loving reader recently approached me to request a column on things to do with her favorite vegetable.
“Favorite vegetable?” You may ask, and rightly so.
When many of us were growing up …and we’re talking Baby Boomers here, the only spinach product known to us was the stuff that came in a can, and it was, in a word, horrible!

Preschool screenings and birthday surprises
Hi!
... and the wind blew and blew. Perhaps this is the windy season!
Where is the snow? Students are starting to do snow dances, hoping they can coax enough snow to fall so they can make a proper snowman.
(I'm sure they hope it will fall on a weekend so they won’t have to miss school! lol)
