This Year's Most Stressful Job: The Weather Person!



There is one thing I can say for sure about 2011 so far: Mother Nature is not a happy woman! She has been wrecking havoc all over the world and these days no one is safe from her wrath. I never thought I would be telling my kids one day that I saw a hurricane and an earthquake (AND in the same week) in New York but it's true. Records are being broken all over with temperatures, rain fall (or lack thereof), and magnitudes and directions of storms. It is a crazy world these days so we all should be watching the news and weather channels to be prepared, no matter where you live.



Dr. Walden, the true Texan woman that she is, wrote an article this week to help educate people in Texas (especially Austin) on how to handle that terrible heat safely:

I hope for everyone's sake that Mother Nature gets a nap, or chocolate, or something to make her happier!

Dr. Walden Talks To CBS News



Dr. Walden recently spoke to CBS News about the 26 year old British woman who ruptured a breast implant playing paintball. While paintball is be a very fun and exciting sport, it must be known that you can get seriously hurt while playing it (regardless of whether or not you have breast implants). The article says that the paintball was traveling at 190 miles per hour! Clearly I think people who play this sport should wear protective gear to cover any part of them they would not want hurt or damaged...real or not!



See what Dr. Walden had to say about it:

Have fun but be careful out there!
