Dog Days of Summer

Dr. Darlene Brezinski
August 1, 2010
No Comments
Now where on earth did that expression come from anyway? Well it so happens that traditionally the “dog days” are those that fall between July 3 and August 11 – days that are often known for their extreme heat and humidity.

No Comments
As hard as I try to maintain optimism and really look in all the nooks and crannies for signs of a major turnaround – it is still tough out there.

Happy New Year!

Dr. Darlene Brezinski
January 1, 2010
No Comments
