ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20
Putting your thoughts into action isn't easy this week, Aries. But you know you have to get
moving on something. Dig into familiar tasks that you can do on memory.
TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21
Taurus, most of your best decisions are fueled by the heart. Continue to put your full self into
all that you do, and others will recognize your undeniable devotion.
GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21
It is time to stop diverting attention away from the truth, Gemini. Remember that honesty is
the best policy. Find the time to talk about the situation.
CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22
Cancer, confi dence gives you the power to open doors and initiate conversations you never
would have thought possible. Trust your gut instinct and move forward.
LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23
Leo, people are anxious to hear what you have to say, even if the discussion pertains to
something minor. Enjoy the attention while it lasts.
VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22
Virgo, a busy time is ahead and it's easy to get overwhelmed when you look at the bigger
picture. Instead, focus on one detail at a time until you get through your tasks.
LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23
You have something to discuss that others may fi nd uncomfortable, Libra. Get it out in the
open, and in so doing you will remove the mystique of the situation.
SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22
Scorpio, you can lay the foundation for a deep, intimate friendship if you want to. Revealing
your own vulnerability can inspire others to trust you.
SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21
Sagittarius, if money is on your mind, speak with a fi nancial advisor, accountant or
knowledgeable friend. Setting new goals may be the answer.
CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20
Do you fi nd you are constantly reinventing yourself, Capricorn? If so, you may not be
comfortable in your own skin. Learn to see what others fi nd so appealing about you.
AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18
Aquarius, right now you might benefi t from some quiet contemplation that can help you zero
in on new goals. Take a few days for yourself to mull over your options.
PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20
Don't try to accomplish too much on your own, Pisces. Your network of friends is waiting in
the wings to help you out whenever needed.

Child Adviocates-Casa of Red River Accepts
Challenge to Expand Montague County Services
On Thursday, July 20, 2017 at 9:30 a.m. Child Advocates- CASA of Red River will welcome two
Court Appointed Special Advocate volunteers to their Montague county program. "This will increase
our CASA volunteers to eight who actually live in Montague county," said Executive Director, Laura
Grimsinger. "But this is not nearly enough because Montague county has an average of 100 children
who are in care through Child Protective Services every year. These children have lost everything
- their families, homes, toys, and their pets; and it is all because they are being abused or neglected
to such an extent that they are in serious danger. Once children are in care, it can take between 12
and 18 months before they can return home or another family is found to care for them permanently.
During this period, CASA volunteers get to know their CASA child and gather information from
everyone involved in his or her daily life including: family members, foster parents, teachers, day
care providers, doctors, lawyers, social workers and other relevant people. They spend a signifi cant
amount of time with their child, gaining their trust and helping them to feel loved and supported while
they are in foster care. As a volunteer, they report all the information they have gathered to the court,
and they advocate for their CASA child's needs and best interests.
Thursday's Swear In date is only the beginning of a robust recruitment eff ort for Montague county.
During this past year, Child Advocates has not been able to serve many of the children who have
been removed simply because there haven't been enough volunteers to answer their call for help. The
Priddy Foundation is trying to address this need by challenging CASA to raise $10,000 from Montague
county by April 2018. "We also want to recruit 15 new CASA volunteers, so the children will have
someone who truly understands what they mean when they talk about HOME." Grimsinger said, "If
we are able to raise the funds by April 2018, the Priddy Foundation will provide a $10,000 match;
and ALL the money will be used in Montague county to help CASA serve the children here." So far,
the Child Welfare Board and the Nocona Church of Christ have agreed to help Child Advocates reach
these goals. The CASA volunteer training will take place in September, but interested individuals can
sign up now. If you want more information about how YOU can become a Big Voice for Montague
Children, contact Child Advocates at 940-766-0552 or www.casawf.org.
Joy for Buff alo Springs
by Carmen Harris Whittington
Happy Anniversary to me! Happy Anniversary to me and Bo! Sunday, Bo and I remembered our anniversary, but I forgot
the wedding cake topper, and left it here at Buff alo Springs. Bo forgot to get me an Anniversary present and I forgot to get him
one too. Aren't we good or what?!! So we will be celebrating one year next weekend. However we did have a pretty good day,
with the cows! We were trying to get some yearlings up for the sale on Tuesday, but they were not willing to load. We had 3 out
of 6 of them, a small calf, and an old cow.. The old cow is going back to pasture and the little one is going back to his Moma.
Tomorrow (Monday), Bo is going to gather up the rest of the yearlings, and take them to the sale barn. I did talk Bo into letting
the old cow (Cathy Lee) go back to pasture. Whew! I have gotten a little attached to Cathy Lee. She can't help it if she likes
to wander and go through fences. I went and helped Bo today, try to pen these yearling calves but they are all too sneaky and
leary of us. Our bull Freddy wanted to go; he got in the pen right off the bat! Isn't that the way it goes? The one you want to
go in, won't., and the one that you don't want in there, they do or die! As it turned out, the bull put ME in the truck, a cow shut
my door, and I had 2 babies at my window wanting cake. I think it was a set up! I feel conned!! Cookie is learning to stay in
the truck, so we can leave our doors wide open and she won't get out, as long as I tell her to "stay!"
I came home on Sunday evening this week, because I will be trying to take up the slack at work, for Toni Clary. She is on
vacation, and I get to try to do part of her work. It's turn about fair play though.
She tried to fi ll in for me while I was gone for 3 weeks! I say "tried", that's what It is..."try"! There is a lot of stuff she does that
I can't or don't want to do and there is a lot of stuff I do that she wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole!! That's ok, because that's
why she does what she does so well, and why I do what I do well!
We are still looking for a Hereford bull, if anyone has one for sale! We would like a Pole Hereford, but we'll take a Horned
Hereford....bull.
I went to church at Pleasant Mound Wednesday night, and enjoyed Bible Study with Billy Waller. As usual it was very
interesting! I noticed that the new church halfway up the road was having a revival. I don't know the name of the church, but
the pastor is Buster O'Dell. I would like to know the name of this church if anyone would please text or call me!
I was back at Grandfi eld Calvary Baptist Church on Sunday morning, played my organ, and sang "The Wayfaring Stranger",
one of my favorites. I have many favorites though! We are getting a new sound system soon. We already have the mixer box,
speakers, and snake cord. Thanks to Chris Harris, we also are borrowing his CD player and Tape deck. We just need the cables
to hook the CD player and tape deck to the mixer board. We're getting excited!
I love going to Grandfi eld, but it's always nice to get back to Buff alo Springs. Bo is working on getting caught up so he can
come down here some. That will be good! Someone ask me today how old I was, and I told them, and then I was asked when
I was going to retire. Uhhh, I don't plan on retiring anyway soon! I love my job!
Jaime Kinsey has been working for us, doing some odd jobs, and we love her to pieces! She works so hard! Good job,
Jaime!!
Everyone please keep Pam Flinn in your prayers. She's having a couple of health issues. Also, pray for Jim Stell, Stan
Maxwell, and our country and president/vice president!
If you have any news, please call or text me at 940-928-2252
Pray for more rain!
