A really nice weekend in Adrian. The sun finally came out. It is amazing how that warm sunlight makes such a difference in attitudes, especially mine! SAD (seasonal affective disorder) is a real thing!
Congratulations and thank you to all of the paraprofessionals who give of their time and their hearts to the students of our area schools. No matter which school you work at, you are a very special part of the staff that makes the school work! Happy Paraprofessional Week!
Please keep in your prayers all of those who need an extra boost and a hug. Winter is a tough time for those that can’t get out. Stop in for a quick hello. It will make someone’s day.
On the calendar for the Senior Dining Center: Monday, February 3 is BINGO. The menu for Monday is pizza hotdish, a breadstick, green beans and peaches. Call ahead for reservations.
