Replying to @Kia_Worldwide
@Kia_Motors from hero to #fail. My Kia was towed three times after not starting in the cold (once by Kia Roadside #verycool). Dealer can't get car to cold, can't recreate. OK. Can't use outside diagnosis. Bummer. Now says replace battery, hope it doesn't happen next time. What?!?

It's a 2017 Sorento. Love the car otherwise. But a jump wouldn't even get it going once it decided it wasn't going to start.
The #AgingAtHome event is off and running! Thanks #WillDecker for the kind words! @Pnphealth @aarpilabs #innovation #entrepreneur

A lot of Toys R Us stories being shared; most from a while back. Not long ago (2016?) I took my son to a TRU and an associate gave him his first pokemon card (a Pikachu promo). He stumbled across the card recently and told me how special it was to him. lnkd.in/g-us7Ww
