Thursday 5/6 Live Blog

A quick flowchart to get us started this morning: Seis de Mayo --> Cinco de Mayo hangover --> pounding headache and watery eyes --> trouble typing and/or concentrating --> time to get back on the burro (aka, "where's the tequila?").

Weekend Buzz took us 'round & 'round the South Valley for Mother's Day activities. Check out a very special event for mom at The Paine this Sunday, as well as various other family activities. The full list is online with the Air-Tech Heating Community Calendar at k107.com.

May is Allergy Awareness Month and "optometrist to the stars" Dr. Elise Brisco stopped over with the best ways to alleviate itchy, watery allergy eyes, the best antihistamine treatments, and simple ways to prevent allergies around the house. Click here for more tips.

Is our wellbeing just about being happy? Or wealthy? Or healthy? NY Times bestselling author Dr. Jim Harter joined us with the answers in his latest book, Wellbeing: The Five Essential Elements. Based on his years of research, Dr. H says wellbeing can be divided into career, social, financial, physical, and community elements. The book is now in stores.

It's National Day of Prayer and we celebrated with Mary T. Browne, our K107.1 Life Coach. Concentrate on the good, forget about the bad. Mary's book can help your journey, The 5 Rules of Thought is available at Mary's website.

Bonnie Allsup chatted with us about the National Association of Letter Carriers annual food drive happening this Saturday at your mailbox. Help Stamp Out Hunger simply by leaving your non-perishable food donation for your postman/postwoman to pick up.

Our final guest on a busy Thursday was Brian Carter from Fond du Lac Seafood. How has the recent oil spill in the Gulf affected seafood availability and prices? Check in with Brian for the latest and place your order from his new take-out menu online, in person, or by calling 517-TUNA.
