Monday Is Going To Be A Confusing Holiday/Non-Holiday

Oct 12, 2019 9:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

Monday is a bit of a confusing holiday/non-holiday. Not just because of its being called Columbus Day or Indigenous Peoples’ Day, but because it is a federal holiday but not a state, city nor county holiday. In other words, all non-essential federal government offices (i.e., U.S. Postal Service, Social Security Office, passport office, federal courtooms, etc.) will be … [Read more...] about Monday Is Going To Be A Confusing Holiday/Non-Holiday

MySweetCharity Is Getting “Refreshed”

Mar 30, 2018 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

There comes a time when the good old familiar way gets to be sorta dusty and ho-hum. When MySweetCharity started in March 2010, it was a homepage with PlainsCapital Bank as its sole supporter. Later that year a Photo Gallery sneaked into place. Three years later the MSC Calendar was added to help event planners avoid fundraising collisions. Over the years the MSC has been … [Read more...] about MySweetCharity Is Getting “Refreshed”

Dec 23, 2017 11:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

If you have munchkins, grand munchkins or still wonder if Santa really exists, then there are bona fide experts who have all the information to back old Kris Kringle.
