Do you ever find yourself talking to your kids and getting nothing but grunts in response? Or perhaps you get glazed eyes looking at you but not quite functioning…the morning stare I call it. Whether it’s caused by lack of sleep or lack of attention it can lead to misunderstandings. Take this [...]
Do you leave your shopping receipt in the trolley then go home? Perhaps I have done a profile on you? You see I like to read other people’s receipts, it’s like a game for me…shopping docket profiling. Maybe I have watched one episode too many of Criminal Minds, who knows but I [...]
