Time moves on
In checking the dates of things I need to do in the near future, it dawned on me that we only have seven more days from today in this month! July has gone by like a whirlwind as far as I’m concerned, and I’m quite sure a lot of teachers will agree with me! In some areas, school will be starting on August 1, for teachers
This past week I’ve attended two funerals; the first one was for a very dear friend. Most of you have heard about taking care of a friend’s dog when she was out of town. This week she succumbed to cancer to the sorrow of her family and her family of friends. May she rest in peace. The second funeral was a truly sweet lady from our church. She was always willing to help with any church work, pleasant to be around totally easy to work with at our church picnic. She had car trouble and while she was out of her car was critically injured by a hit and run driver. She did not survive her injuries and leaves behind a large family and a host of friends. May she rest in peace. However, I did have some fun this week; my daughter came by on her way home, after spending several days helping out her son and his family who welcomed a precious baby boy! We had a great time not only visiting and playing table games but squeezed in a shopping trip as well. She made it home fine this afternoon, to find the streets flooded and rain pouring down. We’re all thankful she had no problems.
SPLASH BASH Saturday, July 27
Tid-Bits
Last week at Lytle P.D. … Officers managed 65 service calls and conducted 35 traffic stops. Of those 35 stops, 18 resulted in citations and 17 were warnings.
We responded to a wide range of property crime reports this past week, in all, there were 6 reports taken. #1 – A construction company working at Rosewood Estates reported that diesel was stolen from their equipment. #2 – A property owner in the 200 Blk. of CR 6841 reported that a rear window of a residence had been broken out. #3 – A 1999 Ford Ranger was stolen from a residence on Cortez Rd. It was recovered by the Medina Co. Sheriff’s Office in the Twin Lakes Subdivision. #4 – A 2016 Kia Soul was reported stolen from Cortez Rd. It too, was recovered in the Twin Lakes Subdivision. It was recovered by the Medina Co. Sheriff’s Office in the Twin Lakes Subdivision. Our investigation leads us to believe that those responsible for both vehicle thefts are a small group of young people (possibly juveniles). The Kia was seen with three males and one female driving recklessly in Twin Lakes right after the theft. Both vehicles were used for “joy riding” and were left abandoned. #5 – O’Reilly’s Auto Parts reported a person used fraud to steal $434 worth of product.
Things & Stuff
Been a little warm lately but, there is a chance for some rain so, keep prayin. We missed the hurricane remnants cause we were in Florida watching it on TV. The eye passed over Jason and Nickie’s house in Magnolia, Texas and they got another foot of rain.
Everybody has seen the assassination attempt on Trump so I ain’t gonna dwell on it except to say that as a Sniper for the SAPD SWAT team for 4 years, I have lotsa questions and I’ll leave it at that….and so far, even after news reports and Congressional Hearings, they ain’t been answered.
By the time this comes out, we would have already had our MCRP meeting and discussed the upcoming elections and our role in them. Noticed that at the National Convention, unity and strength were highlighted. This starts at the local level.
Blood Pressure, Blood Pressure, Blood Pressure!
Here are the facts. Nearly half of U.S. adults have high blood pressure and about half of those don’t have it under control. Many don’t know they have it and don’t know the damage it is silently causing, and so it gets its name, the silent killer. Family history, race, gender or kidney disease can play a role in our risk factors, and just getting older increases our risk. High blood pressure can contribute to our risk of stroke, heart failure, heart attack, vision loss, kidney disease, sexual dysfunction and plaque buildup in the arteries. It’s also a factor for dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, the most common cause of dementia. Alzheimer’s disease is one of the leading causes of disability and poor health in the US. It is predicted that by 2060 the number of Americans living with Alzheimer’s will double!
