Gifting With A Purpose Be Entertained In Mt Juliet News Uncategorized by Beci Ruzek - October 17, 2021October 17, 20210 Separate your list into categories: personal, social, school/work, and clients. Then start on one category at a time and divide it into subcategories with questions for each. I love to use an excel spreadsheet. Yes, I know that does not seem very personal, but it does help me organize everything. I do this for all my clients, and it seems to help them tremendously.

“That’s How It’s Done, Son!” Uncategorized by Randi Radcliff - October 14, 2020October 14, 20200 When I was asked if I wanted to write a story about Charlie Daniels, I immediately answered, “YES!I was shocked and hurt when I heard that Charlie passed. So many have been dying. As the tears flowed I thought about the man. He was a giant of a man, especially to this 5’1” photographer. He always made me feel special.We never talked politics because he knew we didn’t agree, but I always felt he loved me anyway, and I hope I made him feel the same.I could go on, but then I saw something called “The Soapbox” that was written by Charlie Daniels, Jr. I read Part 1 and realized that I could never write anything as heartfelt and beautiful
Tales from Tate’s Lane Uncategorized by Livi West - October 11, 2019October 11, 20190 photo by Scott Robertson What is a Sept/Oct issue without a few ghost stories and some goosebumps? When I was a young Girl Scout eating s’mores around the campfire, we’d pass a flashlight to shine on our faces and try to get the hair on each other’s necks to stand up. My mother, whose camp name is Mama Bear, never failed to tell the best story. Usually, we’d force her to retell our favorite, which she called “The Cemetery Rat.” She should have won a Campfire Emmy the way she delivered it, with facial expressions and various animated voices (but I just invented Campfire Emmys…you’re welcome, Scouts.) By the time the funeral director was trapped in the coffin of the man
Dance! Dance! Dance! Community Features Mt Juliet History Uncategorized by George Hedges - August 19, 2019August 19, 20190 The end of the school year is a great time for young people who live “Between the Lakes.” For most, their hard work in school is being rewarded with a high school diploma. The beginning of a new part of their life is happening. Proms, ceremonies, scholarships, etc. But wait a minute….. There was a time in Mount Juliet that the senior class was NOT allowed to have a prom. Up until 1967 there was no prom. However, that doesn’t mean that young people weren’t dancing. There were plenty of places that we could go to on the weekend such as Teen Town in Mount Juliet, Don’s Den in Donelson, and The Dog House in Old Hickory. We would show up with
Keto Korrection: Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake Let's Get Healthy Recipes Uncategorized by Livi West - August 19, 2019August 19, 20190 I have been living the Keto lifestyle for over a year now and it has revolutionized my world. Before Keto, I had serious health issues with my autoimmune disorders, asthma and even anaphylaxis, but with Keto all of the symptoms disappear. It has literally saved my life. It hasn’t been easy, I admit. I have had to learn how to cook dramatically differently in order to cut the carbohydrates out of my diet. It has been a bit of a challenge, but I have loved the adventurous fun of being creative in my kitchen. I invented so many new favorite dishes and I actually prefer many of them to the original foods that inspired them. When Krys and I decided to
Staycation Destinations Be Entertained In Mt Juliet Community Features News Uncategorized by Livi West - August 19, 2019August 19, 20190 Music City Rollin' Jamboree It’s summer and that means vacations! I love to go to the beach, hike in the mountains, go camping, jump in a lake, float down a river or soak in hot tubs whenever I can go on a vacation, but sometimes I stay right here at home. Fortunately, I live in one of the most beautiful and exciting parts of America and I can enjoy most of those activities without even spending a tank of gas. In Mount Juliet, we’re one short (though admittedly congested) trip down I-40 to one of the top five most popular vacation destinations in America according to most published polls. This usually means that our visiting family and friends inevitably want to go
Random Acts Of Kindness Community Features News Uncategorized by Krys Midgett - August 19, 2019August 19, 20190 written by Sandi Register photo by Krys Midgett In a world where you hear daily about so many negative events, such as bombings, mass shootings, and kids being charged with horrific crimes, I think we all need to take a step back and look for the good. Yes, good does still exist in this world. It is just not splashed all over the news like the negative things. I believe that more good happens than bad, we just don’t see it. I am writing this column to highlight those good things that happen around us every day. I am looking for good things like random acts of kindness or a person going out of their way to help a stranger who is
