Here is the Event Schedule from the Stevensville Main Street Association for this weekend’s events for Western Heritage Days.  You won’t want to miss it! Lots of events, a parade, good food, music, a beer garden, and the historic home tours.  I volunteered for one shift of the historic home tours because I would like to learn more about the homes in Stevensville and afterward I volunteered for one shift at the beer garden, serving beer – not tasting! Too fun!

See the attached schedule for all the events.

I mean, it was such a GOOD PRICE! Right?  Or, we are in the office supply store thinking we need to avoid the computer aisle and the next thing we know we are in the car with some new device we weren’t even sure we needed.  That is an essential question.  In order to be in charge of our choices, we need to figure out exactly what happened.  That way, we won’t feel controlled by our “bad” decisions and compulsive purchases.  Read More→
