Hello Readers! I’m back with this week’s edition of What’s Up in Odenville!

My 30-year class reunion is less than a month away. Thirty-Year-Reunion. I now have to speed diet and exercise in hope to drop 10 pounds, so that the camera can just add them right back on. The good news! I can still fit into the same earrings I wore in high school. BAM!

Let’s get to the news.
