I’ve had an old back injury for the longest time – I think more than 20 years now.  I was moving to a new home and a new office simultaneously and hurt my back accidentally.  But I had seen a chiropractor for the longest time  and even though it helped a bit – it didn’t [...]

My oldest kid who is currently now in college has a part time job with a book store in the city.  She didn’t need to work part time but she wanted extra money for a new car – currently she is driving a used car.   It’s a pretty easy job – and she only need [...]
