Before coming to Big Sandy, I worked with kids in a mental health facility. Most of the kids were pretty ordinary but had abusive or difficult upbringings. The result of their terrible life experiences was often a great deal of anger and dysfunction. It was a difficult job because we worked with kids that lived at the facility. Their parents weren’t there to care for them, so we had to fill in the best we could. The hardest part of the job was that we had to deal with clients at their worst. It became very easy to shift our mindset from one whe...

Holidays are a happy time where families gather and have a big meal to give thanks. But, that isn't the case for all families. Some find themselves either alone or have the family but can't make ends meet to afford a big meal. That's where the food pantry comes in. The food pantries are there for the less fortunate, or for those who just can't get food to eat. The Catholic youth of the Big Flat had a food drive this past Sunday. They hit the roads in the Big Flat community where they collected...

The Students and staff of Turner wore matching shirts to show support of Diabetes. Since one of their own Tornado has Diabetes, they wanted to show her support with this illness. There are approximately 1.5 million people in the United States that are diagnosed with Diabetes each year.

The month of November is Diabetes Awareness month and so it's perfect timing to learn more about...

Long time residents of the Hi-line can remember the old Big R store location in downtown Havre. The store seemed to have it all when I was a kid growing up in the 1980's. The store, originally built in 1948 eventually relocated to the Havre Holiday Village Mall, exponentially increasing its space both within the store itself, and outside as well. For many it seemed the new location was plenty big, then came the re-branding of the store as North 40 Outfitters and the services they could provide...

In last week's Journal you might have seen a photo of students at the Turner School searching the school playground for ladybugs. It was found that excessive ladybugs can mean either a sign of good luck, or a sign of a weather change. Well, it was 100% right about the weather change. Two days after finding over hundreds of ladybugs, winter showed up on the Big Flat. The children went from playing on the playground and collecting ladybugs to building snow forts. Snow amounts varied throughout...

I do about 30 chin-ups at the gym several times a week. I don’t like doing chin-ups, and I couldn’t do them for many years. I’d try and try and couldn’t quite get myself up over the bar. Then, a crazy thing happened one day: I did one. After doing one, I found that doing a second one was easier. In the space of a few weeks, I jumped from none to more than a dozen. I didn’t develop some supernatural strength or find a new training program. What changed was that I figured out that I could do chin-ups. Before I did my first one, I never believed I...
So much to say and so little room. First, we have yarn and lots of it. It is free or if you can make a donation that would be great. If you do not have any idea of what to make we can always use potholders, dish rags, etc here at the center and we could sell them for a fund raiser. Just ideas to consider. Then, the Center will need a new director as I have posted my resignation and will be done on August 23 last day. Please talk to and find that person in your sphere to come in and apply. The position is open until filled. Stop in at the...
