Thank you President Trump for making the 24th and 26th of December holidays. From this federal employee I want to say THANK YOU, Merry Christmas to you and everyone! God be with us all always.

What did I just watch? A underperforming and overpaid Texas A&M Aggie football program. Couldn’t get going early and then just ran out of time. Season was an improvement but the last two games should have had better results.

Interior cross fences installed to assist landowner with grazing rotation and grass rest and recovery.
Awesome work ethic.

This is just wrong, no transparency, affecting the public to real time situations, wrong wrong wrong!
Sudden move to encrypt law enforcement radios in Brazos County raises concerns about transparency, public safety
News outlets and other groups fear this will do the opposite of what agencies say encryption is intended to prevent: confusion and uncertainty.

Installed cross fence, used for rotational grazing, which gives grasses chance to rest and recover. Well built quality material and work ethic.

This is my New Year’s resolution, to recommend my county vote in a groundwater district for Washington County, Texas, it’s time to put it up to voters, population growth and extra demand warrants it.

I say the entire week of Thanksgiving should be a holiday, free of work and everyday pressures of life. Time will always be there, we or our loved ones on the other hand may not be. Take the time to make the memories, and take your time about it too.

Watching Lonesome Dove on this lazy Sunday. Movie is great classic in the western genre. Thank you Mr. Larry McMurtry

This landowner with technical and financial assistance treated the highly invasive Huisache plant. For now it looks good, landowner has the upper hand today, but you can not negate annual maintenance going forward. Along with grazing management, let grass compete with invasive plants.

Great field visit today with landowner, inspected completed cross fence, built above and over our specifications. This will allow for livestock to be rotated and grasses a chance to rest and recover.

Reading things like this make me ill. The people in charge do not care or don’t have a clue of what the average American wants, which is to retire at a reasonable age. Why do these people think it’s ok to keep pushing the retirement age back?
Social Security change in 2026 may impact retirement age. Here's what to know.
A decades-old Social Security rule is set to push the full retirement age to a new high.

On this date, 26 years ago in College Station, TX an unfortunate accident occurred during construction of annual bonfire, a longstanding tradition of the university. God comfort those that perished and their families as well. Rest in God🙏🏼

Getting back in the rhythm of assisting landowners with conservation work. Met with customer today to go over planned cross fences for livestock rotational grazing systems.

This government shutdown has caused a lot of unnecessary harm to federal employees and the people they provide services to. I’ve been a federal employee for 21 years and this one is tough to recover from. Stop treating us like a door mat and START to respect the services we provide to America!

Shameful and despicable. This is what they want to do with hard working Americans tax dollars. The DOJ was just doing their job.
Republicans trash Tuberville’s ‘self-serving’ $500,000 shutdown lawsuit deal: ‘This is outrageous’
"You can’t self-deal like this—especially not by weaponizing a government shutdown."

Sorry no candy distribution this year. Can’t afford it, I’m a furloughed government employee. Hopefully things will change soon.
