It's been a contrasting week of blessings and one disappointment, of tight deadlines, offsite meetings, fellowship with friends old and news, some hellos and goodbyes, and a bit of fiction and poetry writing.
This weekend is a working weekend, even if breaking news is light. I have some extra projects for features and a three-day weekend on the horizon (a rare occurance, the three-days off, not the horizon), and the work must get done sometime. At the very least, I will make sure I get my half hour of fiction time in this Saturday and Sunday, but not sure I can do much beyond that.
In the meantime...
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/ Gotta Do It, runs each Sunday and often stays on the home page through the week.
Feature briefs for Tuesday (health), Thursday (faith), Friday (Arts and Entertainment), and Sunday (People) are also edited (texted and photos) by the lady of this blog, but only the stories have bylines.
Another option: I do post the briefs and calendars on Twitter during the week, so you're welcome to follow me at @Denise_Unland61.
And if you do peek at these stories, to quote our editor Kate Schott, "Thank you for reading The Herald-News." :)

The Rev. Ray Lescher, pastor at Sacred Heart Parish in Joliet where Dick was a longtime member, said Dick was responsible, dependable, respectful of everybody, and he had a great sense of humor.
“He was everything you wanted to see in a Christian man,” Lescher said. “He walked the walk and he talked the talk. He helped a ton of kids over at Joliet Central High School. His door was always open to everybody and his heart was also open to everybody.”

Shorewood man with early onset
Parkinson's is raising awareness, rebuilding his life
The diagnosis was news that hurt the ex-U.S. Marine’s pride.
“The biggest thing I had to overcome is my self-image. I cared a lot about how I looked,” Tom Zielinski said. “I had this persona of a big strong guy.”
