This past Tuesday, I came downstairs from my office to go to lunch and I was horrified to see that my car had a flat tyre. What followed next what a comedy of errors because I was so scatterbrained. I got the jack out, but I couldn’t find the tyre iron. It was buried in…

It is no secret that we all need some form of exercise. Studies have shown that living a sedentary life and eating junk food can cause medical challenges, such as high blood pressure, weight gain, and diabetes, to name a few.
