This post is sponsored by Philips I came home from CES with a bluetooth connected toothbrush, the Philips Sonicare FlexCare Platinum Connected toothbrush (say that three times fast!), and I wasn’t quite sure what to think about that. Bluetooth connectivity for household appliances and objects seems to the be the new black: it supposedly works…
Why A Once-A-Year Eye Exam Is Important
This post is sponsored by Visionworks Last year, when my daughter was just starting sixth grade, she was complaining that she couldn’t see the board at school. I told her to sit closer. She often exaggerates things, so I usually wait to see if she’s going to mention something again before I take it too…
What’s A Patient Portal, and How Can It Help you?

How I’m Staying Healthy During Cold Season
This post is sponsored by Zicam® Total Immune. I work for myself. I don’t get sick days, because there’s nobody else who can cover for me. If I get sick with no warning, and something is due, I have to make it happen. And that sucks. Nobody likes working when they’re sick, getting behind in…
