post divorce help for you and the kiddos

how can we help you better?

we rarely get complaints, however, word got back to us that we failed to return calls.
When we return calls to help you through a difficult spot, we don't want to listen to a five minute introduction to your coolest song ever before we can leave a message. "leave a message, and I call you back when I feel like it" does not sound too urgent either.
You can text us. This option might work better.
We still love you!
Hugs,

Englewood....can you hear me?

Hearing health plays a critical role in people’s overall health and well-being. Untreated hearing loss can affect a person’s ability to stay connected to friends and family, contributing to social isolation, higher risk of falling and lower income.

For people experiencing hearing loss, local audiologist Jyoti Juneja is offering free hearing tests, by appointment, to Englewood residents.

People can go to hiHealthInnovations.com or call 1-855-523-9355 to schedule a hearing test or hearing aid fitting.

rethinking stress

Yup, we have to talk about it.

Every Friday after work I indulged in a little selfish pleasure of rewarding myself with 15 minutes of socializing, a Happy Hour beverage, and some 1/2 price appetizer before picking up the kids from the sitter as a transition to my week end job.

Some of my peers had apparently more stress, money, and family support to party on. Recognize the symptoms before it becomes problematic. Help is available.
