BALDWIN —
Hello from Baldwin. How is everyone’s week going?
I hope everyone is having a great one.
Well, I don’t know what the weather will be like when you read this today, but I must say things got a little crazy Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. Baby, it’s cold outside. But wait, we live in Kentucky and it’s supposed to be 60 degrees this weekend. Be safe.
The Baldwin 4-H Club will meet in the fellowship hall at Bethel Christian Church tonight at 6:30. The club will be making 4-H note cards tonight and will need $1.50 for this project. We hope to see you there.
Don’t forget the time changes this weekend – spring forward. So be sure and set your clocks.
Happy birthday wishes go out next week to Frances Reynolds, Sunday; Kelley Harvey, Christi Harrison, Carson Hamilton, and a very special lady, Helen Carnes, Monday; Eva Ruth Foster, Thursday; and, a very special young lady over on Poosey Ridge, Miss Riley Cate Reynolds will be celebrating her third birthday on Saturday.
I hope all of you have very happy birthdays and many more happy ones to come.
Happy anniversary wishes go out next week to J.B. and Shannon Dupuy, Friday; and Randall and Brenda Curry, Saturday. Randall and Brenda will be celebrating their 38th anniversary.
I hope both couples have very happy anniversaries and many more to come.
On Saturday, Garnett and Myra Isbell and Henry and Nelda Smith went to Cecilia, Ky., to visit Nelda and Henry’s son, James Paul Smith, and his wife, Tiffany, and new daughter, Riley Lynn. Riley was born Jan. 9 and had not met her grandparents from Richmond until Saturday.
Later that day, Riley’s big sister, Alysann Smith, arrived for a visit, also. They all had a wonderful visit and came back with lots of pictures. She is a cutie.
Well, I guess that’s all for now. If you hear any news, just give me a call at 623-4579 or e-mail at pljones61@netzero.com.

Peter Perlman — Life lessons from a lawyer’s lawyer
One of the great moments of my life was sitting next to legendary Louisville attorney Frank Haddad at a luncheon when he learned he had received the first Peter Perlman Outstanding Trial Lawyer award from the Kentucky Academy of Trial Lawyers.
As they started his bio, the surprised Frank started crying like a baby. A sudden heart attack took him less than a year later. Winning the Perlman award was the crowning achievement of his career. -
Credit score insanity
Frequently, people stop me and ask me personal finance questions.
The most common is how to improve their credit history score.
If you need to improve your credit score, it means you have lousy credit. Before fixing the score, people need to ask how their credit got so bad to begin with. -

Fresh strawberries at the farmer's market
Hello from Baldwin,
How is everyone’s week going? I hope everyone is having a great one. Well the weather has improved a lot. I have heard the lawn mowers buzzing since the rain stopped for a few of days. Everyone is trying to get their yard mowed and trimmed up before the next rain. Gardeners are out working diligently working the grounds that have finally dried enough to plant things. It has been very difficult on the gardeners with all of the rain to get their gardens planted. Oh, won’t those fresh vegetables taste good. -
Union City Day is this Saturday
Union City Day is this Saturday. There will be music, food and yard sales including some "Made in Union City" items. I have heard that one of the music sessions will include folks from Union City Baptist Church with ukuleles. For yard sales, you can start setting up at 7 a.m. Saturday morning. It will be a great day to get out and meet your neighbors. Two raffles are underway, one is for a quilt handmade by Mary Sewell. Raffle tickets are available for several prizes including, a 32 inch TV, a Garmin GPS unit and Paula Deen Cookware. See a Ruritan member to purchase tickets. Drawings will be after 2 p.m. All proceeds from both raffles will go to the floor replacement fund.

The sun is going to shine for us
It's another cloudy Tuesday here in Paint Lick, but folks, the sun is going to shine for us all this week, so we can get into our gardens and plow up our fields and just be happy that maybe the rain will stay away, at least for a little while. We have a wonderful breeze out that will soon dry the ground.
