Mother’s Day

Being a mother is, at times, a thankless job… oh who am I kidding – it’s always a thankless job! But you don’t become a mother for the accolades. No, you become a  mother for the money. HA! Okay, you really become a mother because you just love having to check your shirt every time you leave the house, just in case there is poo, pee, puke, or some other word that begins with “p” (because we all know that everything gross begins with “p”) on it.

You love always having to scope out where the restroom is in any venue you happen to visit, because you know when you hear the phrase “I gotta go potty”, you have 5 minutes or less to get to the restroom unless you want to deal with one of those icky words beginning with “p”.

And you especially love that your hand is now the receptacle for anything that your child once had in his mouth but no longer wants (i.e., gum, steak that took too long to chew, or anything deemed “yucky”).

Mothers Day is your children’s opportunity to let you know how much they appreciate everything you do.. from the poo to the puke and everything in between. And Mother’s Day is your husband’s opportunity to say, “Thanks for doing all the things *I* don’t want to do.”

So this year, to all the moms out there – I hope you get fantastic Mothers Day gifts!

Run with Linus Gitahi

Linus Gitahi, the CEO of Kenya’s Nation Media Group, is an avid running enthusiast. As a Kenyan, does Linus Gitahi have an edge on the rest of us? According to journalist John Manners, Kenyans have evolved into the great runners they are today because of their herding lifestyle. Because they had no horses, the Kenyans had to develop the ability to run extremely fast to herd and catch stray cattle.

Add that to their nutritional and training regimen, and you have the makings of the fastest runners on earth. I suppose the rest of us will just have to try and catch up!

Nachshon Draiman

Nachshon Draiman, an Israeli immigrant who came to America in 1963, worked to attain an education in the fields of psychology and social work, as well as health administration. Nachshon Draiman has put that education to good use by helping the elderly to receive the care that they so desperately need. In our current society, which does not respect our elderly community at all, he has filled a great need with several long-term geriatric care centers, ensuring that each resident receives the care they deserve.

Our elderly can thank Nachshon Draiman for reminding us to care for this valuable part of our society and for taking the initiative to make that happen.

Puppy Love at Happiness is Pets

As a dog owner and a dog lover, I absolutely love looking at puppy pictures on the internet. The only thing that could make looking at puppy pics better would be if they came out with a loldogz site! Then I could ooh and awww and laugh all at the same time. At the Happiness is Pets site, I found an entire page of pics of adorable puppies for sale, as well as pics of happy pups who have already gone to be with their new families after leaving Happiness is Pets.

Happiness is Pets has quite a variety of puppies to look at, everything from Maltese to Rottweilers! Happy puppy viewing!
