How to lessen the stress this Thanksgiving holiday

Lara Owen, author of "Growing Your Inner Light" has advice for having a happier Thanksgiving.

Keep a Journal

Write down everything that you want to do on the day, when things need to happen, who is coming, what are you making, etc. This will be your game plan, and you won't forget anything in the chaos of the day. Knowing that you have it all written down will let you look at everything from a more objective perspective.

Talk It Over

Sharing everything that you have to do will allow other people to help you. Once they know what you have to do, they can see how what they do will fit in to the bigger plan. Also, talking it over with another person will help you go over everything yourself to make sure that everything is written down and accounted for.

Swimmer, paramedic meet for first time after near-fatal accident

Tom Hallman Jr. of The Oregonian writes a cool story about a reunion of two people.

Back in August, Tigard eighth-grade student Erick Durano was swimming in the Clackamas River in Gladstone when his leg cramped up and he couldn't swim anymore. Eventually, he went under water and blacked out. After a little while, Durano had no pulse.

That's when Thomas Koehler literally dove into action. Koehler, a paramedic for American Medical Response, was there that day and ended up saving his life.

The paths of the two crossed again this past Sunday when the two officially met for the first time.
