Hey everyone, it’s Whatever Wednesdays and this should be a short post about “Button Batteries Again”. Button Batteries Again? Yea. I’ve talked about it before, but button batteries are a pretty severe hazard. The TL;DR is that kids find them and eat them and these button batteries. Then these button batteries can conduct current in the gastrointestinal tract which can lead to significant injury, even perforation. This may require extensive surgery to fix if there […]

Just a post to tell you there is no real post today. I totally forgot today was Monday since I was concentrating on getting my new washer delivered and trying to get the refund done on my old washer. My apologies.

However, I want to take the time to share a story with you guys. Basically, my wife and I both wear glasses and contact lenses. I’m sure this is common for many, many doctors.

Hey everyone, it’s Finance Fridays again. Today is just a short post about “The Social Media Joneses“. The Social Media Joneses? I don’t really use facebook or instagram or social media all that much. I don’t even really keep up with twitter that much anymore.
