SHELTER DOGS UP FOR EUTHANIZATION-COME ADOPT!

Body
The Holdenville Animal Shelter was I informed Monday, April 22nd that the city wants ten dogs euthanized each week until there is a manageable amount. We don’t know what the number is yet for manageable amount. The ADOPTION EVENT that was supposed to be last Saturday at Walmart and Sovereign Bank was postponed due to rain, but is planned for this coming Saturday, April 25th from 11am til 1pm. Dogs will be at the Sovereign Bank parking lot with free hotdogs and chips while they last. All dogs are completely vetted including spayed and neutered. Halo will have a table set up at Walmart for people to donate dog food and other items needed for the shelter. Just do your shopping and pickup and item for the shelter and drop it off at the table on your way to your car. Little Dog Closet will have a booth with items needed for your new dog. The first 8 people to adopt a dog will receive $25. To purchase items for their new dog. This is sponsored by Tony Akin of Galveston, Tx. Former Holdenville resident and 1978 graduate of Holdenville High School. We are going to see if we can schedule the Rolling Glacier for snow cones. That is pending right now.

Is God Dancing on Your Potato Chips?

Body
Not too long ago I had “one of those days.” I was feeling pressure from a writing deadline. I had company arriving in a couple days and the toilet was clogged. I went to the bank, and the trainee teller processing my deposit had to start over three times. I swung by the supermarket to pick up a few things and the lines were serpentine.

Tell your kids once My grandmother was a sweet lady who was a great cook, terrific baker, whistled while she worked, gardened vegetables and ruined my life once. Or so I thought.
