One day at work I noticed that several of my staff at the clinic were running around giggling showing their wrist to each other. I got up to see what the fuss was about. Turns out they wear Fitbits and those little devices were reminding them […]
I feel like I must utter the phrase “what’s this” over 100 times a day. First off, I have to say that quite often to my son. He was recently very eager to show me a drawing he had made. I looked at it and then had […]
