LIVING LARGE? WHAT’S THE SECRET

Living large usually means more than drawing a breath. Most people compare themselves to others for reference. Not me. My large living is no secret:

VOTE DAY WITH BALLOT ENCLOSED

Vote day is finished with the ballot in the signature required envelope. It took about five minutes. Using a black ink pen I darkened the horizontal ovals for my people. You’re doing the same for your people? Let’s be clear who ‘our people’ are.

ADRENALINE DUMP? EMT SAYS, “IT’S A REAL THING”

I’ve never heard of an adrenaline dump in this context: After an emergency situation you feel a need GO. An urgent need, but it’s during an emergency. If you’re wondering, ‘But Blogger D, what’s the big emergency?’ I’ll paint the picture:

SHIFT TALKERS WORK OVERTIME

Shift talkers like to mix it up, change things. Some do it for the better, some for the worse. They all have one thing in common: Not knowing how and when to shut up. For that we should be thankful?
