Sarah Faughender rubbed Stencil Stuff, an aloe-based cream, onto the skin of her mother Sheri, slightly above her right ankle. The cream will help transfer the stencil Sarah s using as the foundation of her mother s tattoo onto her skin.
The outline: an artistic rendition of an angel charm Sarah s grandmother and Sheri s mother Laura Carter used to carry on the rearview mirror of her car. I m starting to get butterflies in my belly, Sheri says. It happens before every tattoo she gets and this one will make number four.

LOUISVILLE Fans weren t allowed inside Churchill Downs during the running of the 2020 Kentucky Derby, but outside, hundreds of people marched. There was a national militia group, the Not F ing Around Coalition, which brandished heavy firearms while facing a line of fences and police cars. And there were local protesters and church leaders, who joined with the national organization Until Freedom to march from South Central Park to the racetrack.
They chanted, Say her name: Breonna Taylor, as they called for police officers to be charged in the death of Taylor, a 26-year-old Black woman who was killed in her home by police executing a search warrant in March 2020.
NORWALK, Conn. Some Norwalk announcements for you:
A South Norwalk detour
Eversource: Don’t be swindled
Woodward Avenue pedestrian upgrade
Sidewalk work is resuming on Woodward Avenue, and with it a detour between Meadow Street and Burritt Avenue.
That stretch of South Norwalk roadway will be one-way northbound between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m., Norwalk Communications Director Josh Morgan. Other traffic will be detoured. This, every weekday until the project is completed. The work was scheduled to begin Thursday; NancyOnNorwalk visited Thursday and found no detour.

The City approved new Woodward Avenue sidewalks in July, a move that was hailed as long overdue. Mayor Harry Rilling called the sidewalks “horrible” and said, “You can’t expect a mother with a stroller or somebody who has a walker to navigate that. This is going to be a really great thing for that area.”
