I'm going to be on one of our local radio shows on Thursday.  Yikes!  My new friend, who is the President of the new non-profit organization, that helps families of adolescents by helping them with...

I'm a bit nervous meeting the assistant principal at the high school.  If it was just my presentation I was showing him it wouldn't be as difficult BUT I have a request and I am afraid the answer...

I may have mentioned this before but a few weeks ago I was supposed to meet with the asst. principal (high school) so I could show him the program I presenting at the Middle School.  Well, he...

I received a call today from a parent who has known me for quite some time but only as an acquiantance.  She didn't know exactly how to talk to me the way she was stammering but I figured it out...
