Postcards and notes of in- terest at Sweet's Column, Winslow, IN 47598. The Patoka River flowing through Winslow is low since we have had no rain to speak of. Our temps have been cool in the 70s with colder temps in the 40s to middle 35s. The furnace has been lit and it does feel good to have it come on at night. Wind or breezy all week long that blew more yellow leaves to the ground. In our flower garden spot, the solar lights used to light up. Ava is back in their spots, but to show a slightly different arrange- ment along with the other solar lights. Mowers have slowed, but the grass still grows. Just not as high with rain. Norm and I have got a cold from the cold spell. We have tried to stay away from people, but sometimes you have to get out for supplies. This is hard for me cause the only way to see our new grand- daughter, Grace Viola, is on the phone in a text or to hear her cry or whimper over the phone. When we finally meet I do be- lieve Grace will know who we are. Espe- cially her grandpa Norm. Grace is gain- ing more wight, after dropping down to 6 lb 15 oz, but growing like she should. Grace has had her socks and shoes put on her, but like all babies do, they either take one shoe off with the sock, but at least it stayed on for awhile. She will be anoth- er one to not wear her shoes like her Aunt Teresa and her mom, Laura. Laura and Grace have had some stars from her church to help this past week and it helps them a lot to rely on them to bring food, help set everything up for Grace, and to bet them to doctor visits almost everyday. Norm drove to Jasper for a watch, bat- tery, but when he started home a rock or something hit the windshield and put a big hole in it. He will hopefully have it fixed on Thursday, 29th and it will be all new again. I saw some pictures from the Pike County Tractor Drive that was las Satur- day, Sept. 24. I wanted to go, but when the bed says sleep then you have to sleep to get well from a cold, so maybe next year or the Memorial Drive in October. Winslow has a new work truck that we saw this post week as they took the read- ings each week. Marshal Steve has a police car, but its not ready to use as of this past week. Hope to see him drive it soon. Not much else to talk about so the lights are about to dim. Keep an eye on family and friends, slow down and see all the wonders in your neck of the woods. Wear your mask when at all possible in crowds, stop for school buses and the children. Then as always smile, wave and say hi to everyone you see this week.

Sweet's Column By Barb Sweet There is no denying it. Students face a lot of change and stress as they navigate their high school years. Se- niors, in particular, face an overwhelming amount of stress and decisions about the future. As soon as you become a senior, the ques- tions begin and people start asking, "What are your plans after high school? " "Do you plan on going to col- lege? " "What are you going to study in college? " These questions are great conversation starters and a way to get to know someone better, but they can also be very overwhelming for a high school senior. It's hard to know what you want to do with your life when you're just 18 years old. There are many ways to help support kids through- out their senior year. Help- ing students identify posi- tive coping skills can be ben- eficial when they are expe- riencing stress. We spend a lot of time preparing stu- dents for their academic fu- tures, but we also want to prepare them emotional- ly and socially. Building on emotional regulation and distress tolerance strength- ens skills they can carry in- to adulthood. Another way to help se- niors navigate the last year of high school is to encour- age the pursuit of interests and talents. Parents and edu- cators can invite profession- als in different fields of study to discuss the possibility of job shadowing or intern- ing, and they can help stu- dents establish realistic ca- reer goals. One of the biggest ways to show support for seniors is to encourage them ev- ery step of the way. When I meet with high school stu- dents who are unsure about what to do after graduation, I always reassure them it is okay be undecided about the future. I encounter some stu- dents who are not interested in going to college. I often re- mind these students that all jobs are important and nec- essary. Personally, I started col- lege as an undecided major, and I think it was the best choice for me. It eventually led me to discover the field of social work. I would al- ways panic a little when one of my friends announced their plans for after gradua- tion while I was still unsure about what college to attend or which major to choose. I think it's good to remind se- niors that it's okay to take extra time when making im- portant decisions. A lot of pressure is put on seniors to figure out their ca- reer paths, and I believe the best way to guide them is to support their career choic- es and encourage them to do what they think feels right (while being realistic). Over- all, helping students navi- gate their senior year is not always an easy task, but hav- ing support systems in place and encouragement from family and friends is a step in the right direction.
