* All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. * I am done with Disney.

EARTH DAY Earth Day is this Friday, April 22nd. Do your part! Plant a tree, take a walk, or throw that pop can in the recycle bin! Every little bit helps! And here’s to the Stockton PRIDE committee, volunteers and high school students who will be out in full force next Wednesday sprucing up the town! Each person conserve energy.

HAPPY EASTER * Jesus didn’t say, “I am finished.” He said, “It is finished.” He was just getting started. * The gift of God is Eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.

* Everything seems to be misleading these days. Case in point— went to a name-brand store a few weeks ago with my daughter. On almost every display and clothes racks in the place were signs that read “40% Off Sale.” We even asked the sales lady about the bargains. She said, “Yes, everything is 40% off.” So we went on our merry way and did a lot of shopping damage. Boy, were we surprised when we got to the checkout counter, and NOTHING we wanted to purchase was 40% off. The sales lady behind the counter said it was just a few “select” items that were 40% off! I guess you really do have to read the very fine print on all of the signs that were literally on every rack in the store! So that was our mistake, but to be told right to our faces that everything with a sign was 40% off is what gets me. Needless to say, I won’t be going back there any time soon.

MY OPINION This push of the green agenda and purchasing electric cars is going to “backfire” big time. First off, who can afford a $40,000.00 to $50,000.00 car? FYI: All the cars I have purchased in my lifetime have yet to reach that total.

THIS AND THAT * A great big “Thank You” to everyone who helped clean off driveways and sidewalks around town after the snowstorm. It was greatly appreciated! * Who remembers going out in your backyard on a hot summer day to “lay out.” Essentials were a boom box tuned into your favorite radio station, lots of baby oil and Sun In sprayed in your hair! * Remember this Spring that God loves you.

Dancing on air and cartwheels with style, Singing with soul and looking divine. This girl who loves music and things bigger than life Is about to turn the magical age of nine! It’s all about makeup, perfume and clothes In a bedroom full of colors and dreams.

* “The Sound of Music” first aired on the big screen on March 2nd, 1965. One of my favorite songs, no pun intended, from the movie is “My Favorite Things.” My fifth grade class at Robbins School in Omaha performed it at our Christmas concert. The girls all wore mittens.

* Hello March, let Spring begin! * It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold. When it is summer in the light and winter in the dark.

* I started my spring cleaning a little earlier this year, but have not made much progress. I cleaned out my closet and only got rid of one shirt.
