March 5, 2013 I know it's my choice as to who I see as my Doctor but today I left my Doctor who I've had for the past 15 years. Why you ask? Well, you see when I moved to Portland back in 1998 I went looking for a Doctor and my Doctor at Martin's Point was accepting new patients. Fast forward to now, here's the thing, I moved from Portland to Auburn about 14 years ago.
March 5, 2013 What do you think? Please weigh in. Should this nurse have let this woman die? Apparently, some Maine healthcare facilities have rules that don't allow CNAs to perform CPR if there's not an RN present. Troubling?
March 4, 2013 It’s Maine Restaurant week. A week where we try new places or go to a place we love that’s tried and true. Locally owned and operated eateries around the state have discounted meals and incentives to come in and eat.
March 4, 2013 When Ali Clair of China was in the office recently talking about being the new Miss Maine USA, I learned that in this contest the contestants do not pick their platform, but the overall Miss USA Pageant has its charitable alliances with organizations dedicated to raising awareness for breast and ovarian cancer. Whether it’s encouraging women to get a mammogram or advocating for more ovarian cancer research in D.C., Miss USA is committed to fighting for every woman who is battling breast or ovarian cancer. Nice!
March 4, 2013 This is a story that just makes you feel good, and it should! In Albuquerque, New Mexico, a man named Tim Harris owns the eatery called, simply, Tim's Place.
March 3, 2013 NOTHING makes me happier than the innocence of children, their honest interpretation of the world around them (and the people in it), their willingness to learn new things and eagerness to share what they know. Suddenly, I want to be a school teacher of pre-K through second grade. It's kind of ironic that, in my career field, I often act the age of those I want to teach. They'd be more my peers than my students. But, I digress.
March 2, 2013 Now that I'm awake enough and well enough it's time to write a post. By the looks of things, it was a busy Friday at the Moose behind the scenes. Even though I was quite sick and still slightly sick, I feel guilty for staying home Friday and I truly thank Mac, Andy and the others who filled in for me both on the air and off the air.
March 2, 2013 This is a mind-boggling statistic. In 2012, nearly 1400 fragrances were launched. On average, that's nearly four new scents a day! Really? Are there that many pleasing smells to be had in a bottle? And, how would they smell all mixed together? Well, the experiment has been done!
March 1, 2013 Here is some good news! Joe-4-Oil, the Citizens Energy Oil Heat Program, is giving Spectrum Generations access for 250 applications for a one-time delivery of 100 gallons of home heating oil designated for central Maine families. It is all based on some income guidelines.
February 28, 2013 When Marie-Anne and I dined at an Olive Garden in Kissimmee Florida a few weeks ago, I've gotta tell ya, the lay of the land was far better than the one we have here in Augusta. The bar and dining area were separate from the waiting area and there were actually booths in the bar where you could wait at the counter having a drink then take the first "bar booth" that became available.
