Mother Nature won’t let us get off this roller-coaster ride just yet, and it has been a bumpy ride, indeed! Last Friday morning, my eyes popped wide-open when my weather app said the snow would end about 8:30. SNOW! I leaped out of my chair and dashed to the window to catch a glimpse of the white stuff, but, alas, there was none. We tend to become obsessed with moisture during these dry spells, however minute. Unfortunately, there were no frosty white flakes to thrill the sight—just a slight muscle strain from the dash to the window!

I had the privilege of spending time with Clifton and JoAn Key in their beautiful home. My visit allowed me to learn more about the family through heirlooms, such as the painting by Clifton Key’s mother. As the Keys shared memories, I was reminded about the importance of family ties. Another lesson that I didn’t realize was waiting for me around the corner.

It’s that time of year again, the Young County Junior Livestock Show [YCJLSS]! Youth from Texas have been working hard raising, feeding, grooming and training their prized pig, cattle, and bunnies to show off their skill and dedication at the annual Stock Show. These are just a few of the many categories that youth have been working hard at all year to represent.

Who’s trying to mess with my head? January blasted in with bells and whistles but is now rushing head over heels to make an exit. What’s the rush?? All the Christmas lights and decorations have yet to be stowed away, and except for the few days of deep freeze weather, we have been blessed with some really balmy days. Perhaps Mr. January is a bit psychic or has heard reports from previous Januarys about the unpredictability of the first month of the year. So we better dig out our heavy-duty caps (you know, the ones with those fold-down ear flaps lined with fleece) and get ready for some Arctic blasts.
