Donna Fielder: Nan Nan’s hands offer measure of guidance
I measured that cabinet door a dozen times. You’ve heard the old saw: “Measure twice; cut once.” Well, I measured and measured and then I measured again.

Donna Fielder: Beauty pageant mishaps magnified
Not many cities can claim a Miss America, says my first managing editor Keith Shelton in a Page 1A story today. He thinks Denton may be the only city in the U.S. that can claim two.

Donna Fielder: Twins by any other name still handful
I called each of the twins one morning last week. Each of them answered with that “I know what’s coming now and I just have to endure it” tone of voice. “Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. You are now older than your mommieeeeee, and I’m better looking too.”

Donna Fielder: Global travel comes with a few dust-ups
Sherry and I are home from our world travels relatively unscathed and having been involved in only three minor international incidents that I can recall. Actually, it was me who caused the trouble. Sherry is a nicer person than I am. It could be my job experience that makes me so unwilling to put up with any guff from anybody, but I tend to think it has more to do with my age. There comes a time when you tire of enduring rudeness and stupidity and you just won’t take it anymore.
