Story Round-Up: Features in The Herald-News, Aug. 2 through Aug. 7


A long-short week of keeping pace and trying to get ahead for the week I'll be in Raleigh hanging out with BryonySeries web administrator emeritus Sarah Stegall. So cannot wait!!!!

Okay, back to business.

You can check out the health, faith, and arts and entertainment calendars. Three of them can be found at the link below. http://www.theherald-news.com/lifestyle/

Also at the link are the community feature briefs I write/edit (no byline). The fourth calendar, Gotta Do It, runs each Sunday and often stays on the home page through the week.

Below, the stories:

By Jeanne Millsap
With video extra

The biggest challenge with caregiving is often for the caregiver to learn how to care for himself. This weekly group helps to facilitate that.

Frankfort woman hosts two orphans from the Ukraine for the summer

She thought it would be a combo of foster care of foreign exchange, both familiar to her. She was wrong. Had a video extra, but the restaurant was too dark, and the boys became too shy. Too bad, too, because they were cute!
