It’s that time of year again — school is getting ready to start, and temps will soon be dropping to the low 90s.
That can only mean one thing: we’re closer to the next season of Dowton Abbey. And also, that the fall youth sports season is upon us.
Last week I was taken down memory lane as I attended a band camp at Nash Central High School.
Back in the day, I was in my high school’s marching band. My time in band is some of my most memorable of high school.
I remember band camp well.
I very rarely watch TV anymore. I couldn’t really even begin to name any of the newer shows. It seems when I do take time to flip through the channels I end up on the same stations watching reruns of older programs or a couple of the reality shows. No –– I don’t watch Honey Boo-Boo, or whatever her name may be! My husband and I enjoy the American Pickers and Pawn Stars shows. And sometimes we’ll watch the cooking competition shows.

We are all reading a lot of “news” lately about what is wrong with the health care system and the new Affordable Care Act, fondly referred to by some as Obamacare. I think we could probably agree that a system that spends $18 billion dollars a year on emergency room visits for conditions that could have been adequately treated in a doctor’s office has been broken a long time!
