Please Mandate Universal Masking for K-12 Schools

To Whom it May Concern, I am the mother of a seven year old daughter and nine year old son who are enrolled in Lake Orion Schools.   Contrary to your public health recommendations, our school district administration has announced that masks will be optional in our school buildings this fall, and it will eliminate the […]

Yes, I will or No thank you!

In recent weeks, news reporting has been very much like the first quarter of 2020. Then it was the beginning of a once in a lifetime pandemic. Remember the first maps showing the most affected areas of our country? The virus was mainly in the North and the Southern states were almost free and clear […]

A look at omnipresent

In attending Unity churches, I found them so freeing. There was no requirement to participate in anything or have any required teachings. My neighbor invited me many times, but I was a busy mom.

I can introduce a neighborhood full of people who believe this official cannot tell the difference between civic duty and personal interest. I don’t believe this candidate intends to serve the […]

Too many dogs

I am a dog lover. My family has been the family for numerous dogs over the years. That said… What is the deal with so many dogs in businesses?
