Mental Health Benefits of Chatting with Friends
Even in these last days of winter, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) can take its toll. There are a number of remedies like a healthy diet, exercise, soaking up any sun that is around, and using lightbulbs that mimic the sun (those with a rating of 2700 to 3000 degrees Kelvin). Don’t overlook the simple act of chatting with friends. Not necessarily dumping woes on one another, but just a simple talk about ordinary things. Read More.
Interior Spring Home Maintenance
Spring may actually be on the way. There are more hours of daylight and the temperatures can actually be tolerable on occasion. While you may be thinking about that home maintenance checklist, it is probably still too early for many of the tasks.

March Madness Menu
National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) began a tournament in 1939 with eight teams competing. By 1951 there were 16 and today we have around 60 teams participating. The madness comes from multiple games being played simultaneously all across the country. The group known as Cinderella are the outliers that no one expected to make it as far as they do, which serves to generate even more excitement. It is estimated that around 100 million Americans will be watching. Read More.
