A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Hope everyone survived the past week of wacky weather! We had some minor flooding in our basement and our phone and computer lines were out of wack for a few days but now all seems to be back to normal, just drying out now.... Made me think of the folks that suffered during Katrina and Rita and I realize how very lucky I am that what we had were just minor inconveniences..... Anyway, time to think of cool weather and fun things to make time for like fall festivals, apple and pumpkin picking, hayrides and Halloween! Choose one or two fun things to do and bring along someone special to share the fun. Remember to count your blessings, too!
Until November 7th, go out and enjoy the day!!
Karen

P.S. Remember we are back to our regular schedule so look for us on the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month through May. Don't forget to send in those Local Happenings and consider sponsoring the Bulletin to let folks know about your business.
