I’m still in catch-up mode after being out of town a few days.  While I was away, Fishers had a very serious traffic accident on Brook School Road during the morning rush hour of November 2nd.  The take-away for me is this:  we are a growing suburban city with a lot of 2-lane roads.  When driving, be careful out there.

Also, the new Kroger store on Olio Road (read more at this link) is making progress and the grocer is touting what they describe as “a new business model.”  After the Fishers Town Council originally did not support the new, expanded store, Kroger began meeting with residents in the area and slowly moved many of them to support the new concept on Olio Road.  Over time, the city went along with Kroger and the new facility will soon be complete.

Finally, there is more this month to promote the mental health stigma-free campaign.  If you suffer from heart disease, your friends and family will sympathize and encourage you to get medical treatment.  If you suffer from a medical condition related to mental health, too often the stigmatization of mental health prevents people from seeking the treatment needed.  Do your part in removing the unfair stigma often tied to mental health conditions.
