Romans 10: 9-10 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
Hi, this is Kevin, I’m Lovinas’ youngest son. She calls me the baby, but I don’t like being called that. I decided to write the column while she is downstairs washing laundry. I’ve always wanted to get back into writing. It seems that every time I write I quit after 20 pages in, and that makes 20 pages of unfinished stories. I’m currently writing a comedy book. I got the idea from reading The Diary Of The Wimpy Kid. I still have yet to finish it. My goal is to write at least 15,000 words. I never thought I’d be a bookworm until I got into The Diary Of The Wimpy Kid books, which is probably the only book I have ever finished.
Twenty years ago, on September 2, our youngest child was born. To celebrate, our whole family came for an outdoor supper. We are now a total of 31. Son-in-law Dustin broasted chicken and made french fries in his double-basket deep fryer. We set up tables in the yard by our walk-out basement and ate out there. We had a campfire going, which felt really good when the sun went down. The children enjoyed gathering sticks and anything they could so they could throw them into the fire. We caught a few using extra napkins just so they could throw it in the fire and watch it burn. Haha! Most of them stayed here for the night, except Daniel Ray and Verena, who left after supper to go to his parents’ for the night. They had plans to gather at Daniel Ray’s uncle and aunt’s on Monday. Joseph and Grace stayed later but then left for home. Of course, Dustin, Daniel, and Lovina are just across the road so that they could go home to their own beds. Denzel and Byron stayed here for the night and slept with Joe and me. Denzel wanted to sleep beside Grandpa. Byron was always moving around, so I moved to the recliner, and he slept much better when he had my space, too. Haha! I’m having pain in my left shoulder and lower back, so the recliner actually feels better after a while. I have an appointment on Friday, and hopefully I can get relief then. I baked a cake for Kevin and it must’ve tasted better than it looked because it was all ate up. I tried my skills at decorating, which I’m not good at.
Here’s an article of Kylee’s from the archives, September 9, 2015.
Due to a lack of rain, the soil is getting hard. When soil gets dry and lacks adequate soil organic matter (SOM), clay particles set up like cement. Most farmers do a fall tillage, which will increase water infiltration short-term, but long-term the soil just gets denser as the soil compaction gets worse.
New Mutants #18, from 1984, introduced a new artist to the mutant books: Bill Sienkiewicz. He’d made his mark on Moon Knight and a few other books. This was a real turn, as Marvel’s style was far from artsy, and the comics industry was still recovering from the heavy influence of Neal Adams. Sienkiewicz developed an art style based on illustration techniques. It was evident in page layouts that set the stage for the modern age, featuring irregular panel shapes, overlapping images, and borderless panels.
COLUMBUS, Ohio – A recent survey commissioned by The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC – James) focused on Americans’ awareness of the signs and symptoms of prostate cancer. The survey results show most people (80%) don’t know early-stage prostate cancer often presents with no physical symptoms, typically only diagnosed with a blood test.
Mental health issues were once stigmatized to such an extent that many people dealing with problems like anxiety and depression felt uncomfortable speaking about them or even seeking help. Though some may still find it difficult to acknowledge their mental health issues, society has made great strides in regard to destigmatizing mental health conditions and recognizing how common such problems are.
Constant connectivity due to the bevy of digital devices at one’s fingertips continues to blur the lines between individuals’ professional and personal lives. For many individuals, the challenge of balancing family and work is a notable challenge.
