The Special Committee on Timber Supply announced yesterday its plans for conducting commu-nity and provincial consultations. The all-party committee was appointed in May
2012 to investigate and make recommen-dations to address the loss of mid-term tim-ber supply in the cen-tral interior due to the mountain pine beetle.
A discussion paper available online out-
lines options for increasing the timber supply. “We plan to visit 15 communities and hold meetings in Vancouver to find out which options First Nations, local govern-ments, the public and
stakeholders prefer,” said committee chair John Rustad.
A public hearing is scheduled for Williams Lake and 100 Mile House July 5.
To register, con-tact committee staff
by phone, 1 877 428-8337, or by email:
For more informa-tion on the consulta-tion, and to view the committee’s discussion paper, please visit the
committee’s website at: www.leg.bc.ca/timber-committee
The call for public input closes on Friday, July 20, 2012, and the committee is required to release its report by Aug. 15, 2012.

Bear spray used as weapon of choiceAngie Mindus Cariboo Advisor
Another violent inci-dent involving knifes and bear spray has the RCMP Inspector once again calling into ques-tion the availability of currently legal weapons in Williams Lake.
RCMP were called to a complaint of two young males, one with a knife and the other with bear spray, near the 7-11 convenience store on Proctor Street last Friday evening.
According to Inspector Warren Brown, the suspects had fled the scene before police arrived howev-er one individual was later located at Cariboo
Memorial Hospital with stab wounds to his leg and chest. The sec-ond male also sought help at the hospital for a knife wound to the hand and bear spray contamination.
Brown said neither party, both who whom are known to police for this type of behavior, would cooperate with police.
Charges are not being considered in this latest matter, however Brown said it once again high-lights the use of pepper/bear spray as a weapon by youth in public plac-es in Williams Lake.
“The problem exists and I have a huge con-cern about it,” Brown
said yesterday.“It’s not uncom-
mon for us to deal with a bear spray incident multiple times a week if not daily.”
Last fall was the first time Brown sounded the alarm regarding Williams Lake’s trouble with youth using bear spray as a weapon. At that time, Brown sug-gested that community leaders consider an all out ban on the sale of bear spray in the area due to the risks to the community.
“It’s not moms and dads and mushroom pickers who are using it - it’s youth in areas
where there is a high propensity for contami-nation of innocent vic-
tims in areas like the 7/11, Elk’s Hall or the skateboard park.”
RCMP warn of vehicle B&EsOver the weekend
Williams Lake RCMP members responded to multiple reports of break and enters into vehicles in various areas of the city.
Areas targeted were the Fraser Inn, Cariboo Memorial Hospital,
Pigeon and 11 Avenue. Follow up investigation resulted in the arrest of two offenders after a short foot chase. Both individuals are being
held in custody pend-ing hearings before the Justice of the Peace.
Police would like to remind everyone that it is unwise to leave
articles of value in sight in your vehicle as these types of vehicles are easily targeted for theft by offenders.

Job fair attracts curious First Nations studentsCourtney TaylorCariboo Advisor
Thanks to nine local trades businesses and one Tsilhqot’in elder, young First Nations had the opportunity to learn about some options that are out there for their futures.
Last Thursday, First Nation youth spent
two hours at TRU gym engaging with people from different busi-nesses, all because Ervin Charleyboy wants them to know their options are for their future.
“I want to see a bright future for these youth, out West the forest industry has a short lifespan,” said Charleyboy. “We had a great turnout of youth, and I am surprised on how they are engaging with the businesses.”
Charleyboy said he has many ideas on how to support First Nation youth.
“I want to get a Youth Council together, so I can find out what they want and they care about,” said Charleyboy. “I want them to stand up for what they believe in and talk to their Chiefs about what is important to them.”
One of the businesses
at the job fair was Taseko, and Vice President of Corporate Affairs Brian Battison attended the job fair as well, saying he was thrilled with the not only the turnout but how the youth were engaging with the busi-ness.
“It’s good to see all
these youth not only here but asking ques-tions and spending some time finding out the information they need,” said Battsion.
He says he’s proud to have Taesko at the job fair and since they are a big employer in the Cariboo-Chilcotin it’s important to be at com-munity-focused events.
“Young people need hope and opportunity
for their futures,” said Battson”
Stephanie Phillips is a Grade 12 student and she had the chance to talk to Taseko repre-sentatives about oppor-tunities for welders at mines.
“I’ve learned a lot,” said Phillips. “I already did work experience with Beamac, but it was good to learn about other opportunities."

Jumpstarting sportsCourtney TaylorCariboo Advisor
In its sixth year and still going strong is Canadian Tire’s Jumpstart program.
Canadian Tire’s Jumpstart program, along with its commu-nity partners, makes it possible for children to participate in organized sports who otherwise would not be able to afford to.
“Jumpstart is a way to help pay for registra-tion fees for children in families who normally wouldn’t be able to,” said Canadian Tire owner Brian Stefan. “With the strong community sup-port we’ve had, we’ve been able to help more children each year.”
Stefan said their community partners in Williams Lake are the Boys and Girls Club, Big Brothers and Big Sisters and KidsSport.
“We work together to make sure the money gets to the children who need it the most,” said Stefan. “All of the money raised stays local and helps local children.”
Since the pro-gram started six years ago, Williams Lake’s Canadian Tire has helped 424 children, and last year 134 chil-dren were helped.
“It’s because of our community support that we are able to increase the number of children we help each year,” said Stefan.

In 1945, Vivien Cowan along with her daughter Sonia Cornwall and few other ladies formed the Cariboo Arts Society, a group of like-minded people who got togeth-er to paint.
Cowan was influ-enced and encouraged by A. Y. Jackson, who was a member of the Group of Seven.
Sixty-seven years later and the Cariboo Arts Society is still going strong with more than 30 members, 12 of which are very active in workshops and shows like the June show at the Station House Gallery.
“The theme we chose this year is Wonder, everyone’s interpretation of won-der is different, and everyone can apply his or her style,” said Lorne Lazzarotto, who is the Art Society’s president this year.
Lazzarotto has been a member of the Cariboo Art Society for the past six years, and
said he started out very slow.
“The ladies were very welcoming when I first started coming, and have helped me grow as an artist,” said Lazzarotto. “Just like playing the piano, with art you can’t just sit down and start play-ing or creating amazing works of art - it takes time.”
Lazzarotto and Sharon Prevette both say the main purpose
behind the Art Society is to help each other.
“We mentor each other, exchange ideas, and socialize. We really focus on helping each other,” said Prevette. “We hold mini-work-shops every month and other larger ones throughout the year.”
With the show at the Station House Gallery, a group of 11 artists created pieces of art all inspired by the theme of Wonder.
“I was very inspired by the theme, Wonder can be interpreted in so many ways and I think the show is just fantas-tic this year.”
To see what hidden talent some lakecity residents have, check out the June show at the Station House Gallery on until June 30. When at the gallery make sure to read the letter from A.Y Jackson about the Art Society’s very first show.

Summer reading funCourtney TaylorCariboo Advisor
Once again this sum-mer, the CRD Williams Lake Library will be offering a fun free sum-mer reading program to keep children interested in reading and learn-ing over the summer months.
“The program starts July 3, and will be for children ages 3 to 12,” said Melissa Koch, Summer Reading Coordinator, “The pro-gram runs for seven weeks.”
She said the theme for this year is ‘Strange but True,’ with a more specific topic each week.
“We’ll read books about space, science, animals, magic and more all on the general theme of strange but true,” said Koch.
She said each child will have a reading log to fill out each week, and will be awarded stickers throughout the program for reading each book.
“We’re going to play games, make crafts, sing songs and other fun activities to have fun with reading,” said Koch.
“The program is a great way to keep children’s brains engaged over the summer months.”
To register parents can go to the library to fill out an applica-tion form starting June
23. Call the library for more information or if you are over 13 and interested in volunteer-ing with the summer reading program at 250-392-3620.

Who has a normal life anyway?There have been
three times a cer-tain topic has come close enough to touch me. The first inci-dent occurred about four years ago in the local library while I was looking for a book with my daughter, who has Down Syndrome. A woman - a stranger, quietly approached me. She said, “I wish I had made the same choice you did.” To be honest, I hadn’t experi-enced even a hint that my Chelsea was going to be special until she made her grand entrance. For me there was never a choice, so I had no comment.
More recently, a grandmother spoke to me of a new grief that had befallen her. One of her children had just terminated a sec-ond pregnancy. The
gray-haired woman said, “I never thought I would live to see the day when two of my grandchildren would be flushed down the toilet.” I had no words for her, either.
But none of this was personal - yet. I had simply thought, until our ‘Supergirl’ arrived with her extra chro-mosome, that normal people had normal children, lived ordi-nary lives, and general-ly had very few bumps
in the road. But I was wrong.
After Chelsea arrived, I gradually came to see her as even more ‘normal’ than I was. Her wisdoms are often beyond mine. “Black people are my favorites,” she quips. Or, “I’m the smartest person in my family.” She will cross the street to help a woman who drops her purse, and always tells ugly peo-ple they are beautiful. Chelsea also recently spent an afternoon fill-ing mason jars with water to send to thirsty children in Pakistan. A normal child? No - she is beyond that. She has a heart that would benefit all humanity.
Then there was the third incident - a heart-stopping moment in time that happened many years ago. An
acquaintance, after undergoing an ultra-sound, was told the baby she was carrying had the most common mental handicap in the world; her unborn child had Down Syndrome. The child had an extra chromosome and at least a small collection of abnormalities. But before the mom made a decision about wher baby she wanted to spend some time with a Down Syndrome child. She wanted to see if her child could have a normal life, so she called us.
She came to visit one Tuesday after-noon. She listened. She watched and asked questions, and she interacted with Chelsea. Then she went home to ponder the possibilities. Her decision was private,
and I didn’t hear from her again for many months.
What is normal anyway? Making society a better place? Loving people whole-heartedly? Could the little ‘handicappers’ in our world contribute to normal moments and create exceptional ones? Could they be
role models or heroes at times, mending bro-ken hearts and even saving lives?
Some months later we received a mes-sage from the woman who had come to visit. Chelsea had once again made a difference to the life and health and the future of this plan-et. After the encoun-
ter, the woman had followed-through with the worrisome preg-nancy, and given birth to her baby. He was a special baby indeed - perfect in every way. A completely beauti-ful, normal little baby boy.
Normal - whatever that is.
LivingoutLoud with Rita Corbett
A threat at the court-house last week shinned the light on a very seri-ous problem in our community -- our gov-ernment building is not safe.
On June 6 at about 10:30 a.m. the RCMP received a call that a male dressed in a black hoody was attending the court-house (located within that building) and had a gun. The RCMP and Sheriff Services locked down the building, conducted a systemat-ic search but came up empty handed.
Fortunately last week’s incident, whether it was a hoax or a foiled attempt to cause harm, did not go any further. But it sure could have.
For years, the police and sheriffs who work in that often volatile environment have done the best they can to keep everyone safe in that four-story building, but they all know how inadequate the set up really is.
Even the general public would be able to see the safety shortcom-ings of our courthouse situation.
In Williams Lake, a visit to your public health nurse to have your new baby immu-nized means a trip to the same government building as those await-ing their time in court.
Imagine, a mother carrying her new baby and holding the hand of her toddler as she maneuvers through the busy parking lot, past the entrance where anx-ious criminals are smok-ing and talking to their lawyer during a break in their trials, and into the main entrance of the building where she and her children would then share the elevator with other potential bad guys before getting out at public health - just one floor from our provincial and supreme courts.
In either of these courts at any given
time, it could be said that even the most sta-ble person could “snap” while dealing with some of life’s most difficult and emotionally painful experiences.
You have family court where ex spouses may be in a nasty fight for custody of their chil-dren, or perhaps social services have stepped in to take the children away.
You have, and I have personally wit-nessed this, victims and offenders and both of their families and friends attending trials for aggravated sexual assaults, drug charg-es and even wrongful deaths and murders sit-ting mere feet from one another, even sharing that same elevator.
This is not even to mention the fact that those in custody who are attending court proceed-ings are openly escorted through the building and to the fourth floor. Sure, they may be in
shackles and hand cuffs, but they could still raise a disturbance. Or, per-haps they could be at risk themselves from a victim, which then puts everyone at risk, doesn’t it?
In other communi-ties, the RCMP and courthouse are housed in the same building, without public health and the government agents office -- that makes sense to me.
Oh, I know what the politicians would say to the suggestion of a major overhaul of our police station and courthouse --- “In these uncertain economic times ...”
But I ask this. What would we say to an innocent victim and family if, God forbid something bad hap-pens?
By letting our court-house situation contin-ue, we are leaving the doors open for some-thing very terrible to happen in our commu-nity.
The public is at risk at our local courthouse

Father’s Day is a celebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influ-ence of fathers in soci-ety. Many Canadians observe Father’s Day on the third Sunday of June. It is a day for people to show their appreciation for fathers and father fig-ures. Father figures may include stepfa-thers, fathers-in-law, and family friends.
The idea of a spe-cial day to honour fathers and celebrate fatherhood was intro-duced from the United States. A woman called Sonora Smart Dodd was inspired by the
American Mother’s Day celebrations and planned a day to hon-our fathers early in the 20th century. The first Father’s Day was celebrated in Spokane, Washington on June 19, 1910. Since then, Father’s Day has
become increasingly popular throughout North America and other parts of the world.
I get a big glow in my heart when I think of my Father. He taught me about life, we did many things together as I grew, and our relationship was very good and loving. I cant send cards to him on Fathers Day any longer , nor can I make a nice phone call to talk about our favourite football team as they gear up for the season ahead or to hear him tell me to always be positive. There are many of you who have such stories however
there are many of you who have the oppor-tunity to give dad a call to take him for lunch or cook a special dinner. Do it. If you love your dad, let him know your apprecia-tion, as it will really go a long way.
Clearly, Father’s Day gift giving is fraught with peril. We dads can be a touchy lot, but it is possible to please us. Just remem-ber: Don’t spend too much, don’t spend too little. Don’t make it too fancy or too plain, too high-tech or too old-fashioned. Just don’t make a fuss.
Many dads would be real happy just to
receive a phone call. A phone call to tell your dad that you love him and thank him for being your Father would be something that would bring a smile to his face and heart.
Small boys become big men through the influence of big men who care about small boys.
20th-century pianist Charles Wadsworth said, “By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he’s wrong.”
Do something nice for your Father this Sunday.

High School Students Invited to Apply For Junior Council.
Williams Lake high school students are invited to submit an application to serve on the Williams Lake Junior Council for the September 2012 to September 2013 term. The deadline to apply is June 30.
The Junior Council is a group of seven high school students from Grades 10-12 that suggest ideas that
could enhance life for youth in the city. Junior Council mem-bers are appointed by City Council and pro-vide a youth voice to decisions made by the city. It is an oppor-tunity to learn about and participate in the process of local gov-
ernment. Junior Councillors
will attend two to four meetings a month, will take turns attending City Council meet-ings, and help plan activities to engage youth in civic affairs, among other duties. Requirements to serve
on the Junior Council are that the person be a student at a Williams Lake high school, is 18 years old or younger, and must be able to attend at least 75 per cent of Junior Council meetings.
Applications can be submitted by e-mail
to [email protected] or by dropping off the application form at the city or giving it to one of the current Junior Council mem-bers: Talia Baptiste, Cody Haley-York, Ivona Ognjanova, Abbi Taylor, Patrick Newsome, and Ana Lomavatu.
For more informa-tion, contact Manager of Social Development Anne Burrill at 250-392-8480.

Dear Editor,Thompson Rivers
University, our local university, has recently held a very successful fundraising event.
It was the first of what is to become an annual event to raise funds for bursaries to help local students partially off-set their costs of post secondary education at our local university.
This was the main purpose of the cel-ebrated gala and it exceeded the goal of $30,000 set by the organizing group. The final accounts are nearly completed and the actual total will be close to $37,500,
Thank you to donors and sponsors, thank you to the doz-
ens of volunteers who worked tirelessly and in a short time frame. Their efforts success-fully provided finan-cial means as well as a wonderful evening of entertainment and great fellowship for the supporters who attended.
Our co-chairs David Hall and Betty Turatus put together committees that knew the importance of the cause and knew how to get it done. What an amazing example of volunteers and community coming together.
Several local stu-dents will now have incentive to continue their education and enrollment in our local TRU campus.
Increased enrollment will help our goals to make TRU a bigger and better university in our own city.
Every participant should be proud of
their hard work and success and the real-ization of what really happened for TRU and the future for students and our local econo-my. The assurance that
we will continue to be a university city now and in the future is our primary goal.

PUBLIC INPUT SOUGHT ON RENTAL SUITES IN SINGLE FAMILY HOMES
The City of Williams Lake encourages residents to ll out a survey in order to collect public input on rental suites in single family homes. A survey is available online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NN38NPT and at City Hall, 450 Mart Street. The survey asks questions regarding whether the City should allow secondary suites where the homeowner does not live in the home, and how the City should approach duplexes with secondary suites. Currently, the Policy states that suites are not allowed in homes where the owner is renting both the main part of the house, as well as the suite. This requirement re ects a higher number of complaints about noise and property maintenance, where homeowners do not live in the home. It is believed that if the owner lives in the home, there will be fewer issues and complaints from both the neighbourhood and the tenant. Houses with both the main and secondary suite rented are not permitted and would either need to remove their suite or consider an application to rezone to an R-2 designation (Two Family residential).

Missy knows her basic commands but would bene t from some obedience training. She is housed trained and well behaved in her kennel. Her previous owners had explained that she was not good with cats, but we may suspect that could be from being left outside bored, which may have caused her to chase them.

Enduro racer Sirel Moliner Valdivia rides hard at the Pedal by the Puddle Sunday, competing in the Solo Male 0-39 category and completing six, 10 kilometre laps in five hours and 49 minutes with his fastest lap at 45 minutes and 32 seconds.
Dylan Passeri competes in the Mini Pedal by the Puddle Sunday. Passeri was one of more than 30 children tak-ing part in the Micro and Mini Races
Muscle man Kelly Servinski checks in for his first of a staggering eight laps he finished at the Pedal by the Puddle enduro race. Servinski, a bike rep for Scott bikes, rode eighty kilo-metres in five hours and 56 minutes, completing his fast-est lap in 40 minutes and 39 seconds, with an aver-age overall speed of 13.47 kilmotres per hour. Wow.
Angie MindusCariboo Advisor
There were thrills, spills and crazy fast times during the fifth annual Pedal by the Puddle Sunday.
All told, 136 riders competed in the local enduro race, which saw competi-tors ride a 10-kilometre loop as many times as possible on the Southside trail network in six hours and 30 minutes.
Kelly Servinski topped the Solo Male Under 40 category, competing a whopping 80 kms in 5:56:26.5. Solo Female Under 40 went to Grace Hiom who clocked 60 kilometres in 6:23:56.6.
Local rider Ryan Oliver came in with the fastest lap overall at 38:56.6 to help his two-man team with Tim Daechsel come in first place in the Team 76-95, completing 90 kms in 6:19:09.9.
Local racer Dr. Dick Whitman was the oldest competitor but showed everyone what mountain bike racers are made of. Whitman slipped on a narrow wooden bridge and hit his face, breaking a front tooth halfway through his first lap.
Whitman completed his lap and was seen by dentist Dr. Vitoratos (who was also competing) on site and taken to race sponsor Cariboo Dental Clinic, where he was treated so he could return to race another lap for his relay partner Martin Lettinga. Even with the mishap the two managed 40 kms with an average lap time of 1:17:32.8.
Rod Eckert also had a spill at the beginning of the race, sustaining a separated shoulder.
Except for those injuries and a few cuts and bruises, race organizer Scott Gordon of Barking Spider Mountain Bike said this year’s race was fantastic.
“We had some high level athletes take part in the event this year - some very fast riders,” said Gordon.
“The trails were in great shape and the weather was fantastic. It was a great event.”

Five locals compet-ed over the weekend in the BC High School Rodeo Finals that were held right here in the lakecity for the second year in a row.
Chad Braaten from 150 Mile House com-peted in cutting, calf roping, and team rop-ing. Kate Barnett of 150 Mile House com-peted in cutting, while Madison Smith from Williams Lake com-peted in barrel racing. Jaime Dean MacDonald competed in goat tying. Matt Armes also from Williams Lake compet-ed in saddle bronc, steer wrestling, calf roping and team roping.
Up for grabs for the young rodeo ath-letes was a chance to advance to the National
Finals Rodeo and the Canadian Finals Rodeo to be held later this summer.
Armes qualified for Saddle Bron for both the Nationals and the Canadian Finals. He also qualified for a spot in the Canadian Finals in Steer Wrestling after an 7.1 second run on his third go, which was good enough for fifth overall.
Braaten finished sec-ond in cutting on day one, third on day two and third on day three. He also finished ninth in calf roping his first go and fourth place on his second go. Braaten is in Grade 11 and still has another year of high school rodeo along with Armes and Smith.

PUBLIC HEARINGSPECIAL COMMITTEE ON TIMBER SUPPLY
Chair: John Rustad, MLA (Nechako Lakes)Deputy Chair: Norm Macdonald, MLA (Columbia River–Revelstoke)
How can timber supply in BC’s central interior be increased?Forests make up nearly two thirds of the province and are an important economic, social and environmental resource in the lives of many British Columbians.
Over the last 13 years the outbreak of mountain pine beetle has affected an estimated 18.1 million hectares of forest throughout BC. The effects of the infestation continue to present major challenges to the forest industry and communities in BC’s central interior.
The all-party Special Committee on Timber Supply was appointed by the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia to examine and make recommendations to address the loss of mid-term timber supply in the central interior. Specifically, the committee must consider recommendations that could increase timber supply. A discussion paper describing the issue and outlining possible options is available online to inform and focus public input.
The committee will be holding a public hearing in Williams Lake on Thursday, July 5.
British Columbians may also participate by sending a written submission, or a video or audio file. The deadline for public input is Friday, July 20, 2012.
For more information, including meeting dates, locations and times of public hearings and to view the discussion paper, please visit our website at: www.leg.bc.ca/timbercommittee

Cook him Lamb Chops for Fathers Day dinner Spring has just about
surrendered to summer, at least on the calendar. I understand we are in for a hot summer, wouldn’t that be a nice change. With the hope of warm weather it’s good to know my garden wont get drowned and the herbs along with a few vegetables will prosper.
It is Fathers Day this Sunday and if you are fortunate enough to have your Dad close by, try cooking him a wonderful meal for his special day.
Most Dads are not fussy folks and would not expect a gourmet meal, however a nice easy to make dinner with real taste would probably rate an ‘A’ for
you, in your Fathers eyes.
Is your Dad a beef man, maybe a lover of pork, or chicken, or just a guy who likes almost everything. You will know if he has a certain favourite food and its all right to confer with him to see if he would like the grilled rabbit you were going to cook.
Make a list of your food requirements and
do the shopping at least three days ahead of time for the Fathers Day din-ner and do as much food preparation ahead of time as possible, so you can spend more time with Dad.
Here is an idea for your dinner and one that is easy to prepare, it is also very tasty. If your Dad likes Lamb, here’s one for you that
includes some nice end of spring herbs.
Lamb Chops with Thyme and Parsley4 lamb chops (no more
than 2 pounds total, and trimmed of fat)

Some pretty awesome things come in 2s!
2 Weeks For Only $16.80For items over $500 in value
Maximum 3 lines$1 per additional line
Expect to expend a little energy this week to get the job done right, Aries. Leaving it up to others is not the best way to go in this instance. Step up.
Taurus, focus on the big picture or nothing will get accomplished. It’s too easy to get lost in all of the little details. Follow through on the task at hand.
Gemini, someone will catch your ear and it will only serve to confuse you. You won’t know what to make of it but don’t get worried. It will all begin to make sense once a few pieces fall into place.
Lots of people need your help, Cancer. Focus all of your energy on helping others for the time being. You will feel good about your efforts and the good karma that results from them.
Leo, you need to fi gure out how to turn all of your great ideas into workable projects -- especially ones that can make you some money. Get started on a plan.
Change will be all around you, Virgo. While you’re not overly excited about it, you realize change is essential to growing in your life and career. New work arrangements need to be made.
Don’t expect this week to go smoothly, Libra. But that doesn’t necessarily mean it will go badly. It’s just full of distractions and interruptions.
Scorpio, you may be feeling sensual and romantic for the next few days. It could be because of all of the positive attention you have been receiving lately.
You may feel happy when a friend or family member comes over to visit today, Sagittarius. You have been waiting for some company for quite a while. Enjoy the visit.
Capricorn, your mind will be all over the place this week unless you fi nd someone to help you get focused. Think of it as having a babysitter who can call you out if you start to stray.
Aquarius, you will be amazed at the results when you fi nally set your mind to something. Stick with what you’re doing and enjoy the ride.
Pisces, help around the house or at the offi ce this week and the work will benefi t you and all of the other people with whom you interact.
