So for anyone who read my post yesterday, you might have noticed that I’m on a bit of a positive thinking kick. With so many things that can go wrong in everyday life, it’s good to have some positive reinforcement in your life to tell you things are going to be just fine. Well why rely on someone else to tell you things will be ok when positive thoughts can be created and start right inside your own brain? Give it a try this weekend and see if some good things start falling your way!

While you’re out this weekend, why not stock up on supplies for the 4^th of July this Thursday? Truckload Fireworks is your one stop shop for all the things you need to make your holiday party one to remember! Fill out the entry form on the front page of this week’s paper for your chance to win a free water well from Truckload & Oasis Water Wells. This year Truckload Fireworks will donate $10 from every Folds of Honor Firework sold to the Folds of Honor Foundation. With your help, they hope to raise at least $250,000 for scholarship opportunities for those families involved in Folds of Honor. Truckload Fireworks intends to make this a huge success in order to honor those who gave their all so that we may celebrate our freedom.

The talk across the World Wide Web today is all about that thrilling (or heartbreaking!) game between the Spurs and Heat last night. Thanks to Ray Allen and some missed free throws, the Miami Heat survived regulation and went on to beat the Spurs in overtime.

Well since we don’t usually produce a blog on Sunday’s let us just say it now “Happy Father’s Day!” To all the Dads out there near and far, thank you for all that you do for us on a daily basis. From birth all the way into adulthood, there are so many things that Fathers teach us and do for us that deserves recognition! Here’s a Father’s Day poem that I found while searching around for something special –

“Thank you for the laughter,

For the good times that we share,

Thanks for always listening,

For trying to be fair.

Thank you for your comfort,

When things are going bad,

Thank you for the shoulder,

To cry on when I’m sad.

This poem’s a reminder that

All my life through,

I’ll be thanking heaven

For a special dad like you.”
