Darlene’s Commentary: Chewing a substance containing Xylitol can help clear a foggy brain! Xylitol is a sugar substitute that tastes good and is good for you, too. Hard to believe, right? There are many products that contain Xylitol, especially
sugar-free gum. Start chewing!
Karen’s Commentary: More coupons on their way! This time to US Army, Air Force, Navy and Marine bases in
Belgium, Germany, Japan and Guam. Also, I read that the Twentynine Palms Library will be closed for renovations from October 1 to December 13!
Our community center is open on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. You can check out books and movies from the free lending program, or just come in to cool off and relax.

Handy Hint: Leave your phone in your pocket or purse when you’re talking to other people face-to-face. Give them all your attention.
Today’s Thought: “I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.” – Quaker
