About a month ago, a very pregnant, grey-striped cat showed up at my house.

This Week in Texas History

On Nov. 14, 1954, a small-town Texas daily revealed rampant fraud and corruption in a state-sponsored land program. The expose earned a Pulitzer Prize for a courageous newspaperman and sent a high-ranking public official to prison.

My heart and my head were a whirlwind of emotions Friday as I returned to what a hometown should be.

After spending an amazing week discovering western Canada, I learned my best friend’s husband passed away.

With two days remaining of the Canada trip, I set about trying to change my flight plan to get to southeast Louisiana as quickly as possible.

I was on hold with the airline for three hours, and then they cut me off. I logged onto their website and explained my situation in a “chat.” They promised a representative would call ASAP.

Dear Editor,

Thank you so much for supporting today’s Hamilton Job Fair. It was great to meet in person and see Ms. Jen Gesick in action interacting with employers and representing Hamilton’s Chamber of Commerce. As always, Becky & Fileza did an amazing job!

Most of all, the community supported the event, and it was amazing to see the interaction with employers. We had employers doing onthe-spot offers. A job seeker seemed to be puzzled, and when we approached her, she was just overwhelmed with emotion because she had two job offers, she had to decide between.
