I got up this morning to a temperature of 11 degrees Fahrenheit. Cold, you say? For some, perhaps, but for others, it’s a matter of perspective. Why is that? Why does a person’s perspective play a great part in how they see things?
A quick look at the long-range forecast shows that it will get much colder, with a couple of days at 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. Yet some take it in stride and prepare differently, while others will view it as one of the worst couple of days of the new year. Me? I’ll take it in stride and enjoy it. Why? As I said before, it’s always a matter of perspective.

!! BEWARE OF A RECENT SCAM !!
Bradford Township Police issue the following warning: A recent scam has been showing up in many states. A “brushing” scam is when someone receives an unexpected gift or item not ordered in the mail from a place like Amazon or other company. Examples of gifts we’ve seen include rings, bracelets, necklaces, Bluetooth speaker, etc. The gift will have the recipient’s address but will not include the sender’s information or be from a known retailer.
When the recipient opens the package to see what it is and possibly who sent it, there is a QR code to scan to find out who sent the gift. Once the code is scanned, all the information from that phone will be sent to scammers. They receive all access to the phone. All personal and financial information is accessible to the scammers and often the victim’s bank accounts are drained. The gift QR code should NOT be scanned for any reason. QR code scams are nothing new. These scams show up in all places, including parking meters. Inform your family members about the scam and avoid scanning any unknown QR codes included in packages.
