For several years I’ve been taking Zolpidem (generic for Ambien) on and off as a sleep aid. It’s cheap and effective and for most of us has little or no side effects. FDA studies show the incidence of dizziness and drowsiness (most common complaints) to be only 2% – 3% greater than that of a placebo… and that’s for us elderly folks!

Dear Editor,

I am Lana Ashley 601 695 2311 and I live at Rockport on the bank of the Pearl River.

I lived here in the Easter flood of 1979 and this flood of 2020. In the Easter flood my home was in water 3 feet, this year the lower part of my split level home was flooded.

Thanks to city for their help

Dear Editor;

The senior citizens want to thank everyone for fixing the nutrition sites problems. We are all warm, stove new and a new faucet.

If possible we need the front heat on to heat the bathrooms.

Thank you!

Thanks for the repairs

Dear Editor,

The senior citizens want to thank the city for the heater in the community center getting fixed along with a new stove.

However, the faucet in the kitchen sink still needs to be fixed.

Thanks again,

Irene Hill

Dear Editor,

I’m writing because The Nutrition Site in Magee has not had any heat since November 21st. The maintenance man was called but he could not fix it. He told us someone was called to fix it, but he was in Memphis. The heater is still not working.

Editor of the Simpson County News,

It seems today all we hear is bad news, so I wanted to share something good that happened to me a couple months ago at the Subway Restaurant in Mendenhall.

As needed as an animal shelter is in our county, the even greater need is to try to encourage the citizens of Simpson County to spay and neuter their pets. Building another shelter or rescue is like sticking band-aids on the cracks of a dam, trying to hold back the flood of unwanted animals in our county and in the South in general.
