Her question was about  “INTROVERTS & Public Speaking“. It related to personality types and I responded with some “Brain Color” information I thought would be…

Today, I felt like Spring had finally arrived at our house. My “Yellow Brain” began “Spring Cleaning” in one of the bedrooms our “Brazilians” vacated when they moved from our home into theirs! My “Blue Brain” loved hearing the Mr. and Mrs. Cardinal, our Illinois State Bird, singing, while we enjoyed our dinner on our…

My friend, Gail, sent me this lovely St. Patrick’s Day message.“May your pockets be heavy and your heart be light. May good luck pursue you each morning and night.” Our Chicago River dyed Green!
