Your body called, it wants summer back

2025/11/13

I have haphazardly self-diagnosed myself with Seasonal Affected Disorder or S.A.D. There is just something about the dreary cold days that makes everything a little less charming. I don’t like the cold and I hate that it gets dark so early! All I want to do is sleep until it is sunny and the sun sets at a normal time again. So, I understand the battle to fight that little self-destructive voice that whispers to “Stay in bed, go nowhere and do nothing besides feeling gloomy.” What is Seasonal ...

2025/11/13

I was at a nearby Dollar General, the poor man’s Walmart. We now live 14 miles from the real thing. I had made my purchase and returned to my Subaru in the handicapped parking place. I have the “mirror hanging card.” Out of the corner of my left eye I saw a white flash jump the curb at the sidewalk in front of the store and slam into the corner of the building. KABAM! The building must have shaken like an earthquake. People ran out of the front door. The senior citizen piloting the white pick...

A tale of two cities

Thomasville Times ·

2025/11/13

A book could be written about Alabama with the title being the same as the famous novel by Charles Dickens, “A Tale of Two Cities.” The City of Huntsville and its burgeoning suburbs would be the shining beacon upon the hill of Alabama, whereas our capital city of Montgomery is a decaying, dangerous murder capital that mirrors a third world country. People have been fleeing there for years. It is an unsafe place to live, work or visit. When you look back at the annals of Alabama history around...

The best part of the story isn't the parts but the heart

Thomasville Times ·

2025/11/13

Some folks have a garage full of toys. Some finally buy the dream car they’ve been wanting since childhood. Others rescue a tired old project and bring it back from the brink. But whether it’s a classic showpiece or a little daily driver with a few dents and a whole lot of memories, every car has something to say. That’s exactly how I felt when I met Jesse Cameron, a skilled technician who moved to Fulton from Washington state with his family a few years ago. Many people around here know him ...

A simple stop, a powerful reminder

2025/11/13

Throughout my life, I’ve heard people talk about miracles. My faith has always been strong and I’ve never doubted that miracles are real but two weeks ago, I was reminded just how real they are. Willie and I were headed to a campaign event in north Alabama. As we always do, we stopped at Priester’s Pecans off Interstate 65. The air was warm, filled with the smell of roasted pecans and the hum of traffic outside. As we were checking out, I noticed an elderly woman sitting on the top steps near...
