Enjoy your wonderful Christmas present
Dear Editor, What is the best Christmas you remember? Was it when you were a child? Was it when you received the gift you wanted?
It’s not all about the Feds: state and local policymakers have a responsibility to deliver for families
Dear Editor,
Many leaders elected this November won by saying that families will be better off in the years ahead than the years behind. Voters voiced their rejection of more of the same.
Dealing with the challenges of Christmas
Dr. Glenn Mollette
Christmas is a joyful season but always has some challenges.
The place of Christmas is often a question. Mary and Joseph ended up in Bethlehem when Jesus was born. They had gone there to pay taxes. Paying taxes is never fun but something we have to do. The place they ended up when Jesus was born was probably not their desired location to bear their first child but they made the most of the location.
Location trips a lot of people up on Christmas. Many have no choice. They will spend Christmas in the nursing home or jail.
Government is the Problem
Dear Editor,
For almost 18 months, I have been exposing the many community issues in Mohave County, focusing specifically on Kingman, AZ. The major theme has been that elected community leaders have categorically and defiantly REFUSED to listen to the people’s voice and have done so with reckless disregard and brazen deception. The specific issues have been Uncontrolled Growth and Inadequate Infrastructure. I have enumerated in great detail a plethora of current and pending community problems, all the while our elected officials, both county and city, have hidden behind the misleading ideology of Economic Development.
Holiday eating – December pleasures, holiday regret?
We don’t have to eat ourselves to death to enjoy the holidays. I’m including myself when I say this. I gained two pounds just from Thanksgiving day alone. I had finally lost a few pounds and presto, faster than the twinkling of an eye I gained two back.
It’s easy to do. I ate generous portions of ham and turkey, along with derby pie (two pieces), oatmeal cake and sweet potato pie. Yum yum it was so darn good!
To show for my eating frenzy is some added weight and a high blood sugar number the next day. There are consequences to such pleasure!
