We all know the critical and important role that our mothers play in the health and health development of all members of the family. Recently, Bearnadine Healy, MD, writing for US News and World Report on January 2, 2009 said:
I had the opportunity to go to New York last week on business, but while I was there, I managed to sneak in a little sightseeing and shopping. You can't tell from shopping in New York that the country is in a recession. Since many of you won't be able to make the trip this year, I am including a picture of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. It was beautiful.
My arrival back home was not all that exciting...I had a leaky toilet and a flooded bathroom. Fortunately, it was Roto Rooter to the rescue. I called the dispatcher and they were there within the hour and had my leak problem fixed about 20 minutes later.
I did have a little trouble finding their phone number. I called directory assistance and asked for Roto Rooter, I even spelled it out for the operator, but apparently she wasn't listening. "I can't find a listing," she replied, "would that be 'R-h-o-d-a' Rooter?"
Weve had a couple of warm days this week, and I think we are all itching to shed those winter coats and head to the great outdoors for some exercise. One of the best ways to get your heart pumping, shed a few pounds and see the local countryside all at the same time is to go for a bike ride.
