Lingering drought conditions throughout much of Texas could present challenges as waterfowl hunters prepare for the start of the new season. The dry habitat conditions in many parts of the state are not ideal for ducks and duck hunters, according to Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) biologists. However, weather pattern changes, timely cold fronts and significant rain could boost hunters’ prospects.

“Halloween, a day when we get it right. Strangers come to us beautiful, ugly, odd, or scary, and we accept them without question, compliment them, treat them kindly, and give them good things. Why don’t we live like that?” –-Steve Garnass-Holmes This sentiment for Halloween is also shared by Public Education. Every child that lives in a school’s district is welcome to their school without question. By law, they are placed in the classroom and given tools to learn no matter what extra help they might need. That is the beauty of the Public Education system in America– every child who comes to the door gets a seat and an education.
Costumes and candy are synonymous with Halloween. Individuals may spend weeks or months trying to come up with the perfect costumes for their trick-ortreating excursions or Halloween parties. Many children and adults also enjoy costume themes, in which they dress up to coordinate with others in their group.

“So, what I was saying was…” There was a crash in the background. Ten minutes later, I said, “So, anyway, I…” The person I am still trying to talk to is arguing with someone else. Five minutes pass and I say, “Back to that….” A child walked into the room with an urgent need for something that included tears, though the particulars are a little fuzzy today. This is my life. I am an easily interrupted person. It’s a multi-tiered problem. Firstly, it is very important to me that I paint a very clear and precise picture when I speak to someone, anyone. That translates into a few more adjectives than the average bear. I choose my words with the precision of a neurosurgeon, systematically analyzing and trying each one out in my head, making millisecond substitutions to maintain the utmost accuracy. Also, I am soft spoken. I was the only child at home for the entirety of my existence. It’s not that big of a deal. There was no one to talk to growing up. I entertained myself, often speaking out loud to a character in my head. I rehearsed the things I would need to say the next day in advance, trying out different pentameters, throwing in a few $20 words here and there. I learned quickly that rehearsed opportunities rarely pan out as you expect. People will still hear what they want to hear and interpret as they wish to interpret. Besides, I’m a mom. And, moms get interrupted.
