Super Bowl LV is right around the corner, falling on Sunday, Feb. 7, 2021. This year, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is teaming up with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service to remind football fans and Super Bowl partygoers that designated drivers are the best defense against the dangers of drunk driving. When Super Bowl celebrations involve alcohol, plan for a ride home with a sober driver. NHTSA and AgriLife Extension want to remind everyone: Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk. If hosting a Super Bowl LV party, prepare plenty of snacks and non-alcoholic beverages for guests and the designated drivers. Additionally, do not serve alcohol to minors. If an underage person drinks and drives, the person who provided the alcohol can be held liable for any damage, injury, or death caused by the underage driver. In fact, the alcohol contributor can face jail time if they host a party where alcohol is served to people under 21. “Everyone wants to have a good time on Super Bowl night, so we want our community folks to plan safe rides home if they plan to be out at a party,” said AgriLife Extension Family and Community Health Agent Melisa Rhodes, Van Zandt County. “Even one drink

PUT A LITTLE THOUGHT INTO IT
Dear Dave, I don’t like admitting this, but I absolutely hate my job. Last year I almost cashed out part of my 401(k) to start my own business or open a franchise, and doing something like this is still on my mind. Considering how I feel, do you think this would be a good idea? Kurt Dear Kurt, In your current state of mind, this entire idea is a trap. Don’t misunderstand, I love the idea of someone living their dream and owning their own business. But you just mentioned starting your own business in same breath with opening some sort of franchise. That tells me you don’t really know what you want to do. Have you ever heard someone say they’re “going all in”? When you’re playing cards, that means you’re about to bet everything on a single hand. But here’s the deal, it’s never smart to go all in when it comes to small business. That’s a good way to turn a dream into a nightmare. I’m urging you to really think about this before you take action. You didn’t mention anything about your financial situation, other
than you have a 401(k). That’s a good thing, but if it’s all you have—and you don’t have any other savings set aside— you could be in real trouble. If you decided to leave your job, and your idea for your own business doesn’t pan out, you’ve lost a chunk of your retirement savings. It’s gone for good. Bankruptcy also becomes a real possibility. Opening a business just because you don’t like your current job, or you’re angry at “the man,” is a bad idea. You need to find something you truly love doing, because to have any chance of success you’ll have to live and breathe that business day and night, seven days a week. Don’t make any rash decisions about your current job right now. If you really want to start your own business, begin by doing a lot of research, saving as much money as you can, and thinking about things you could do for a living that would make you smile every day. Once you figure that out, the next step is devising a plan that will allow you to open a business without putting your entire financial world in danger. In other words, how can you start small with
the money you have, instead of damaging your retirement funds or taking out a loan? It’s not an either/or proposition, Kurt. You don’t have to risk it all to get away from a job you hate and into one you love! —Dave * Dave Ramsey is a seven-time #1 national best-selling author, personal finance expert, and host of The Dave Ramsey Show, heard by more than 16 million listeners each week.

Weekly News Keeping kids safe as far as childcare.” Heiberger noted the Naon the farm is a tional Farm Medicine year-round priority Center recently received
By Jennifer Dorsett Field Editor Farm child safety is more important than ever during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Scott Heiberger, communications manager for National Farm Medicine Center. “Most of the country, when people go to work, they go to their offices. They leave their home. But when it comes to agriculture, a lot of times the work site is also the home. And so from that standpoint, of course, the safety factor continues, whether it was prior to COVID-19 or after COVID-19,” Heiberger said in an interview with Texas Farm Bureau Radio Network. “But now it is such an extreme situation, and families are spread so thin. With kids home more, it is an opportunity for them to help out more, especially during the peak spring and fall seasons. Not having kids in activities or school might give you some hours to do some of the more hazardous jobs. We have to recognize the realities.” National Farm Medicine Center can help families manage their children’s safety on the farm. To assist in the shortterm, Heiberger said the organization created a “Children’s Center” on the website, pulling together all child-related safety resources. “There we have our have our ag youth work guidelines to help parents assign jobs to kids based on developmental ability to make sure the child is matched to the job,” Heiberger said. For younger children and especially those under the age of six, the center stresses the importance of a safe play area with a barrier to keep kids away from hazardous conditions. National Farm Medicine Center also plans to collect data to assist in advocacy efforts on policy and legislative issues. “Maybe we can get some more help as far as rural childcare and have more of a plan for that,” Heiberger said. “Because if we’re asking this farm population to feed the world, it would be nice if we could also help them out and maybe give some real solutions
a grant from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health to help improve child farm safety. “We have some longer-term projects looking at childcare in rural areas and ATV operation, and something called the Farm Kid Paradox, where we look at not only the hazardous things about growing up on a farm, but we try to quantify and get into some kind of data form the positive aspects of growing up on a farm, like building a good work ethic and responsibility,” he said. “We’re excited to try to put some data on there, so that we can be better advocates for farm families. So, when we’re trying to get better childcare in rural areas, and we’re maybe trying to inform policy on ATV operation, we’ll have some actual numbers that we can share.” A Healthy Heart in the Time of COVID-19 Melisa Rhodes, M. Ed.Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Van Zandt County Extension Agent melisa.rhodes@ag.tamu. edu 903-567-4149
For those with heart conditions or other medical conditions that may weaken your heart, keeping your heart healthy and protected during a pandemic is important. Cholesterol and blood pressure issues, as well as arrythmias or cardiomyopathy, are heart conditions that can make contracting COVID-19 more serious. Your heart is the most “essential” worker you have. It beats more than 110,000 beats a day and pumps about 2,000 gallons of blood throughout your body. This fist size muscle is so important, it only makes sense to keep it healthy and happy. To help support and improve your heart, try some simple changes that everyone can make. Variety and Veggies Eating balanced and nu-
tritious meals daily can help you reduce sodium and sugar intake, helping to maintain or lose excess weight, manage your blood pressure, control cholesterol. The nutrient dense foods that we consume help in providing those vitamins that support our bodies. Eating a colorful variety of fresh fruits and vegetables helps to support our health and our immune systems. Try new recipes throughout the week to add variety and enhance enjoyment. Visit www.dinnertonight. org for delicious and healthy recipes that are lower in calories, saturated fat, and sodium. Keep Moving Staying physically active can also improve and support your heart. It strengthens your heart so that it can efficiently pump blood throughout the body. A stronger heart also helps to keep your blood pressure under control. Try to take a brisk walk outdoors daily or keep active around the house; not only are you keeping social distance but improving circulation to help reduce stress. Mask, Hands, and Distance Always remember to follow the CDC guidelines for COVID-19. Wash your hands frequently, continue to wear a mask, stay six feet apart from others, and avoid large crowds.

tions, the announcement said. “One of our greatest strengths as a company is our presence in communities across the country, which makes us an ideal partner for administering vaccines in a safe, convenient, and familiar manner,” said Karen S. Lynch, President and Chief Executive Officer, CVS Health. “We continue to be grateful for the commitment of our front line colleagues whose dedication has allowed us to deliver care and peace of mind during the pandemic.”
