Happy St. Patrick's Day ☘️🌈🌟

When you slow down enough to notice the small good things, (a hot shower, a cup of coffee or tea, how excited your pet is to see you, a thought that inspires you) you’re not just appreciating a moment; you’re signaling joy, safety, possibility to your nervous system. Your brain becomes more familiar with that emotional tone, learns to recognize it intuitively, and take it in. Over time, that reshapes the neural pathways, and helps set the tone for your day. This simple practice is more powerful than you may know…

Drop some ✨✨✨ if you are open.

What’s one small good thing you can let count today?

Please see the below boil water advisory for Colonial Acres in Cass County!

Boil Water Advisory – Colonial Acres (Cass County)

Residents of Colonial Acres are under a Boil Water Advisory after a loss of water pressure on March 13, 2026caused by a power outage from strong winds and storms. The backup generator did not operate, which led to the pressure loss. At this time, there is no clear timeline for when service will be fully restored.

What you need to do:

* Do NOT drink the water unless it has been boiled first.
* Bring water to a rolling boil for at least 1 minute, then let it cool before using.
* You may also use bottled water.

Use boiled or bottled water for:

* Drinking
* Making ice
* Brushing teeth
* Washing dishes
* Preparing food

⚠️ Loss of water pressure can allow contaminants to enter the water system, so boiling water helps kill bacteria and other organisms.

Keep using boiled or bottled water until officials announce the advisory is lifted.

Questions? Contact Colonial Acres at 269-663-2424
You can also call the EPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline: 1-800-426-4791

Please share this post with neighbors and others in your household, especially anyone who may not have received the notice directly.
