Matters of the Hearts

Feb. 13, 2014, Vol. 12, Issue 3 February — it’s the month for matters of the heart — both the beating physical entity and the emotional heart. As I looked back in my archives, I noticed that over the years I’ve written lots about heart health and heart health speakers, but little about the emotional… read more

Laughing audience

Jan. 23, 2014, Vol. 12, Issue 2 The headline caught my eye:  “Laugh at Your Peril, Study Says.” What? What could that mean?

Clicking Through to Boost Numbers

Nov. 21, 2013, Vol. 11, Issue 23 Have you seen the ad where the Christmas carolers are singing their lyrics from their tablets, or the iPhones are playing a carol to which the carolers are mouthing the words?  I’m not sure I’ll ever get used to that kind of electronic nostalgia (do those words even… read more

Stepping it Up

Oct. 31, 2013, Vol. 11, Issue 22 Happy Halloween! Okay, I’ve said it, and that’s all I have to say on the subject — Halloween is simply not my favorite holiday. I don’t mind the goofy dress-up part — that’s fun. Ghouls, gore and goblins, however, are just not my style. Call me a Scrooge… read more

If Bumblebees Can Fly…

Oct. 17, 2013, Vol. 11, Issue 21 I love this table place card holder. It guided me to my table at the Breast Cancer Survivor Celebration put on last week by the PeaceHealth St. John Medical Center in Longview, WA. I attended this event last year as well.
