Happy Friday Ladies!Well, it is hard to believe we are in August already! Lots of family plans/obligations in the Fall months and we are planing a trip in October! I think everyone needs a holiday, as it certainly helps with our mental health and enjoyment in life! Today I thought, since summer is still here, and we are still wearing bathing suits, that I would talk about body positivity after 50.
Happy Friday LadiesKeeping it a bit light today as I have been encountering a few sleepless nights due to Perimenopause or maybe Menopause, we don't quite know yet. My doc seems to think at 50 I am still in Peri, I beg to differ. I do think the term "Hot Flash" is not accurate however, as there is no "flash" but rather a long drawn out evening of Night Sweats! Such is life! Anyhow, I thought I would talk about what I love about Summer!
Happy Friday Ladies!I have found myself more reflective over the past 5 years. Maybe that comes with age. I have every good intention of going to sleep some nights at 10 pm, only to roll over and think about 4 billion things that run through my mind, I was thinking last night, how do you find peace in your life? What brings you inner peace?
You know me. My hair. I joke with my hubby with talk of a morbid sarcastic nature, What would people say about me? "Well, she had great hair!". Kidding, kidding. I had an interesting discussion with my hair stylist the other day. Why do women over 40+ feel that they need to go shorter with their hair?
Happy Monday friends!That's it. I am now half a century old and I am ok with that. I think as long as I keep moving forward, what's the problem?I thought since I am now 50, I would write 50 things about myself you may not know. Or... 50 things about turning 50 that isn't so bad.. I'm kidding, kidding.
Morning friends,I have always believed that you need to wake up each morning, and be passionate about something. I always thought you should love your job, and look forward to getting to work. If it feels like a chore, or you dread it, how will you continue it for years? "There are few things more powerful than a life lived with passionate clarity." Erwin McManus
Maybe I am just getting older, but I do think of myself, sometimes, as "old fashioned". People often think that being "old fashioned" makes one afraid of change. I don't find myself afraid of change, and I am able to go with the flow. i think there is a distinct difference to being "old fashioned" and being stuck in a time warp, thinking that only your era had the best music, the best foods, the best etc.
Morning ladies!I am in Pittsburgh, visiting with my mom, brothers and sister. My mom will come back to Charlotte with us and visit for a few weeks. So, I am not home, when you read this post, but I wanted to share this anyway. How many times do you stop and smell the roses?'The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment, wisely and earnestly. -Budda'
