Everyone loves a quick fix, especially when the solution is also a DIY fix. Got a leaky sink? You can learn about how to fix that from a YouTube video. A plumber would probably be a little more efficient but then you wouldn’t get that sense of self-satisfaction that comes with doing it on your […]
Hearing loss is a widespread challenge for older people, but does it require giving up driving? The response isn’t clear-cut, as driving habits vary among individuals. While hearing loss is a factor to think about when driving a vehicle, a skilled driver remains capable even if they have to adjust the volume on the radio. […]
It’s an amazing and incredible experience, having a child. But it can also be sort of… uncomfortable, at least at times, and at least when it involves how it can make you feel. There’s the morning sickness, the changes to your body, the health challenges, and all sorts of weird side effects. Getting there can […]
You asked for help with one basic chore: take the trash out. But, regrettably, it never got done. “I Didn’t hear you”, they state. Why aren’t you surprised that your partner didn’t hear the one thing they wanted done? This “selective hearing” is a common indication that communication is breaking down. We tend to view […]

(After all, you’re just turning up the volume on your television once in a while, it’s nothing to worry about, right?) That’s normally the situation, yes, but not always. It turns […]
It’s not difficult to observe how your body ages over time. Your skin starts to get some wrinkles. Your hair turns gray (or falls out). Your knees start to be a little more sore. Some sagging of the skin starts to occur in certain places. Maybe your eyesight and your hearing both begin to diminish […]
