Weekly Digest Looking back over the cold January days of 2003, especially the past week, one wonders what's really important . . . Storyteller Garrison Keelor says January is a time of regret, a time of making resolutions to stop things we're sorry we did in the old year, like drinking, smoking, eating, not exercising, etc., a time of determining to start the New Year clean. He may be right about that, however, about this time, around mid January into the new year, we begin breaking over and coming back to our real selves, drinking, smoking, eating, lounging around and focusing on how other people are doing instead of on our own behavior. Nationally/Internationally, we remain at peace, thankfully. With all due respect, "The American People" are speaking out in greater and greater numbers against war. Statewide the budget is out of kilter and the three top leaders, Patton, Richards and Williams, are under the gun to straighten things out. Maybe it's time for citizens to play "The Budget Game" developed by the Long Term Policy Research Center, www.kltprc.net, where citizens can go online and tweak the budget to see how it works and what happens when you make a change. Locally the news has focused this week on the weather. The forecasters got to be "right" on the storm warnings Thursday when three or four inches of snow fell on Adair County. We're having some real winter for the first time in several years. Temps have been as low as four degrees, snow continues to blanket the landscape, but main roads are mostly passable. Closings are too numerous to mention and one worldly friend says she hates how "this place" shuts down every time we get a snow flake. Don't mind her attitude, she's just dealing with her frustration over not exercising in the old year and her resolution to get back to it as the new year gets started and the exercise shop was closed due to bad weather. More later. Stay well and warm! Writer Linda Waggener welcomes your comments! E-mail: Linda@ColumbiaMagazine.com This story was posted on 2003-01-19 12:22:02
