I have lost twenty pounds, and I’m very proud of my accomplishment. I know I have to develop healthy habits in order to keep the weight off.  My problem is I eat too much in the evenings after dinner. What can I do to change this bad habit? --Sherry

Dear Sherry,

Congratulations on your weight loss. You should definitely be proud of yourself!

Many people fall into the trap of night eating. In the evening our will power is down, and we are susceptible to temptation.

The annual spring migration of greater sandhill cranes is in full force in southern Colorado. If you've never seen these beautiful birds gathering in huge numbers, be sure to put it on your bucket list.

"People in Colorado should take time to see the cranes; the migration is truly one of nature's wonders," said Joe Lewandowski, a spokesperson for Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

The Plainview basketball team and their coach attended the Air Force vs San Jose State basketball game on Saturday at the Air Force Academy.  They enjoyed touring the Chapel at the Academy and were recognized by having their name come up on the marque during the game.  They also enjoyed having lunch at Fargo's.

“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them.” Mark 10:14 Sometimes people ask me “What is the cause of so much unhappiness and crime in our world?” I think it is simple. The Lord spoke those words in Mark 10 and it is evident that many parents have not taken responsibility to insure that their precious children have spiritual education. It begins in the family.  

15 Years Ago

February 28, 2003

The guys were outside at the sale barn, sipping coffee in Styrofoam cups and waiting for someone to say something. Inside, the pitch of the auctioneer was heralding the glories of an old spavined milk cow, and fevered cattlemen were waving cards with numbers on them.

It was quieter outside.

Finally, it was Herb who spoke. “You guys ever burn the toast and then scrape it?”

Toast, huh? Why not?

“Used to do that a lot before the toasters got modern on us,” said Doc. “Hardly ever burn any more.”

TALK, TALK, TALK

It is good to plan, but if we don’t work the plan there is no success. “Work brings profit, but mere talk leads to poverty!” Proverbs 14:23 Living Bible
