AUSTIN – When Rebecca Grimes sets the table during the holiday season, there’s always a missing piece. Nearly four decades ago in 1982, a drunk driver killed her brother, 18-year-old José “Hector” Martinez, in a head-on crash just before

Thanksgiving. The holidays have never been the same since then. “Even 30 years since Hector’s crash, we still feel that one empty chair at the table during the holidays,” Rebecca Grimes said. “Drunk drivers affect so many

people beyond just those who are in the crash. They have a domino effect — crushing multiple families — and the impact lingers for years, decades beyond the crash.” Grimes is sharing her story as part of TxDOT’s “Plan While You Can” campaign which urges drivers to make a plan for a sober ride this holiday season. “Just don’t drink and drive, and don’t risk putting your family or someone else’s through heartache this holiday season,” Grimes said. In 2018, there were 2,370 DUI-alcohol related crashes in Texas during the holiday season.* Those crashes killed 75 people and seriously injured another 199. “The bad decision to

drink and drive can turn the joy and revelry of the season into tragedy, causing unimaginable heartache for years to come,” TxDOT Executive Director James Bass said. “There’s no excuse: plan ahead and be responsible.” The “Plan While You Can” campaign will tour the state featuring the “Plan to Win” virtual reality game. The game poses questions related to drinking and driving demonstrating the consequences of getting behind the wheel through an immersive experience. Driving under the influence of alcohol not only risks death or serious injuries, but it can also be costly. Drivers can face up to $17,000 in fines

and fees, jail time and loss of their driver’s license. Instead of getting behind

t h e wheel, here are some alternative options: Designating a sober driver or calling someone for a ride home Calling a cab or rideshare service Using mass transit Spending the night “Plan While You Can” is a key component of #EndTheStreakTX, a broader social media and word-of-mouth effort that encourages drivers

to make safer choices while behind the wheel, like wearing a seat belt, driving the speed limit and never driving after drinking or doing drugs. Nov. 7, 2000 was the last deathless day on Texas r o a d w a y s . #EndTheStreakTX asks all Texans to commit to driving safely to help end the streak of daily deaths on Texas roadways.

DAVE SAYS Starting off on the right path together

Dear Dave, I’m getting married next summer. My fiancé and I are in agreement about how to handle money, and we both follow your plan. Do you recommend pre-marital counseling? If so, what do you feel are some of the important areas of agreement for couples before they get married? Allison Dear Allison, Congratulations! I’m glad you’re both on the same page with your finances, too. I’ve worked with thousands of couples and numerous marriage counselors over the years. In that time, I’ve learned fights over money—and the resulting problems from those disagreements— are probably the biggest cause of divorce in America. In my opinion, in-depth pre-marital counseling is an absolute must. The idea of entering into something that’s supposed to be a lifelong commitment, without thoroughly addressing all the issues— and potential issues—is a really bad idea. With that said, it’s been my experience that couples have a high probability of a successful marriage

if they agree on four things, in detail, before the big day—kids, money, religion, and in-laws. With kids, the big question is do you want them? If so, how many and when? Are you going to let them run wild, or are you going to provide structure and make them behave? When it comes to money, something it sounds like you two are already in agreement on, get all your cards out on the table, and construct an intelligent game plan for your finances that you both agree on. Staying away from debt, living on a written, monthly budget, and saving for the future are important parts of this. Also, be in agreement on religion. Statistically speaking, two people from the same faith have a better chance of making a marriage work. And finally, when it comes to your future in-laws, you need to learn who they are and what you’re getting into. What are they really like? What are the boundaries when it comes to their influence on your lives? All these topics should be discussed at length, dealt with, and agreed

upon before the rings are exchanged. God bless you two, Allison! —Dave * Dave Ramsey is CEO of Ramsey Solutions. He has authored seven best-selling books, including The Total Money Makeover. The Dave Ramsey Show is heard by more than 16 million listeners each week on 600 radio stations and multiple digital platforms.

Tech Gifts Can Make Resolutions a Reality

(Family Features) While many people who make New Year’s resolutions drop them within a couple weeks or months, pulling those newly received tech device gifts out of the packaging and putting them to good use may be just the help you need to keep your resolutions on track. Learn how to get the most out of your tech with these tips from the experts at Amazon. Prioritize Personal Goals The most common resolutions are centered around getting healthy or simply living life to its fullest. If you need help staying motivated and keeping your health goals on track, you may be able to rely on Echo, Fire TV or Kindle devices and a voice service like Alexa as partners in your personal health journey: * Inspire you in the kitcen. Get some extra help or healthy recipe inspiration in the kitchen - just ask for “healthy recipes” - or catch on-demand episodes of food and cooking TV shows, and when you see a recipe you like, just ask to save it. You can also access live and on-demand cooking

classes, get step-by-step cooking instructions and more. * Create a bedtime routine. A good night’s sleep is key to physical and mental help, and you can set up a nighttime routine with your smart home devices with options like a reminder to meditate, dimming the lights and turning on one of dozens of different soothing sounds to help lull you into a restful sleep that can be activated just by saying “good night.” * Prioritize some “me” time. Ask for daily affirmations to start on a positive note or ask for a guided meditation to take a break from a busy day. An e-reader like the single-purpose Kindle can be another companion for taking a moment to unwind from the hustle and bustle without the potential for interruptions from emails or texts. You can select from millions of books, newspapers and audiobooks, and adjustable lighting lets you read comfortably whether you’re indoors or out,

day or night. Get Organized You may be surprised by how a voice service like Alexa can bring some much-needed organization and peace of mind to your home. * Set up routines. If you need to know the weather, traffic and headlines before you head out the door for work or want your coffee pot to start brewing as soon as your alarm goes off, you can create a custom routine with your smart devices. * Create reminders. If it seems as if you are always forgetting to turn on the dishwasher or need an extra push to clean out the garage, set a reminder on your device to provide you with the audible motivation you need to get tasks done. Or, if you struggle to find time to get to the gym for a daily workout, set a reminder to launch a fitness app on your smart TV or streaming media player to get some exercise at home. * Manage your shopping list. Missing an ingredient while cooking or forgetting the office potluck can be problems of the past. Maintain a list to help you remember groups of information, even if you’re busy doing something else: Just say: “Alexa, add (item) to my shopping list.” You can also view your shopping list in the app and check items off your list while at the store.

HENSON ANNOUNCES RE ELECTION BID

I want to take a moment to announce my reelection for Van Zandt Constable Pct.1. I was elected in 2009 on the Republican ticket thanks in part to Obama. I have served the citizens for going on twelve years. I waited this long to announce because several things had to fall in place. I wanted to know I could continue to serve you the people without any questions. I have had one issue with my heart rate in 2015 where a pacemaker was put in place. I still have the same drive I had when first elected to serve. I was granted a basic Peace office license in 1990. In 2008 I ran for Van Zandt constable Pct 1 my opponent was a good friend and still is to this day. I have advanced my position to a Master Peace Officer. In my twelve years we have continued to serve you 24 hours a day seven days a week. WE have four Deputy Constables that work 20 hours a month. They furnish their own vehicle along with gas. The deputy's patrol many miles and one deputy work an

average of 100 hours a month. We not only serve papers and bailiff our court we work our own criminal cases and make numerous arrest if needed. My budget for fuel for the year in $ 5000.00 that limits me to The miles I patrol every month which is around 3000. The hours I work is geared to on call all hours day and night. ! I asked everyone to pray that we make the right decision when we vote on any candidate in March. If you do a little research you might understand each candidate’s motive to seek a position.. I am asking If I have in your eyes done a good job then reelect me as Van Zandt Constable Precint one. If you are not satisified then there two other opponents but I will continue to protect and serve everyone wityh thesame dilligence, GOD BLESS YOU AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR VOTE.

EARLY VOTING IS NEAR

Now that the holidays are over Lone Star Shopping News takes a look at early voting Early voting begins Feb. 18. If no candidate receives a majority of the vote in the primary, the top two vote-getters will compete in a primary runoff May 26. Texas is an open-primary state, so voters can decide every two years whether they’d rather help pick the Republican or the Democratic nominees (or hold out and go to third-party conventions). Of note: Whatever primary you decide to vote in, you can only vote in that same party’s runoff, if a runoff is held. You can also vote for either party's candidate in the general election.
