YOU made a difference. Thank you.

Thanks to some of the volunteers who thought they had nothing more to offer than a smile and got cought up in the excitement of being a vital part of getting thousands of kids ready for school.

We also want to thank the people who sent school supplies to West, TX

rethinking stress

Yup, we have to talk about it.

Every Friday after work I indulged in a little selfish pleasure of rewarding myself with 15 minutes of socializing, a Happy Hour beverage, and some 1/2 price appetizer before picking up the kids from the sitter as a transition to my week end job.

Some of my peers had apparently more stress, money, and family support to party on. Recognize the symptoms before it becomes problematic. Help is available.
