Grace Kestler and Jerone Wood for voting against a new apartment building downtown on Washington Street.
Mrs. Mahoney and her fifth grade class at Smith for all the hard work for the Reindeer Games, from students and parents.
the parents who donated and volunteered for the Reindeer Games so my children could participate.
the new record high for the Dow Jones Industrial Average, closing above $37,000 for the first time ever.
the Biden administration for our country currently drilling more oil than Saudi Arabia and Russia, more than any other presidency.
TA Smith for telling me he was sorry at Walmart, God bless your heart.
Scott Roccia, at Chem-Dry, for doing a fantastic job cleaning my dirty carpets.
Onions to
those trying to start an impeachment for no reason at all just to cover the fact that they don’t want to tackle the real problems such as immigration, spending, etc.
those who complain about sports preempting regular programs because that happens when it takes longer.
having to pay swim meet fees when our swimmer was too sick to swim and we gave four days notice they would not swim.
the obnoxiously loud Ford Mustangs and their equally obnoxious inconsiderate drivers.
the former guy who is saying on day one that he will be a dictator.
the political party in D.C. that decided to leave town for three weeks, leaving Israelis and Ukrainians hanging with no aid approved.
those more concerned about offending those with disabilities on the U.S. census than whether or not someone is a legal U.S. citizen which they were not allowed to ask.
Happy Birthday to
Judy Wheatly, from Sandy, Lily and family.
