Today I looked in the mirror and said to myself, I look like crap. I was ready to spiral down the woe is me path, but stopped myself in my tracks. However, not before I thought, I’m not that same young lady I was in my 20’s, 30’s and even 40’s. In good shape, great……

Where Did I Put My….?
The other day, I was filming an Instagram post. I had set my glasses down on the desk because I can’t see up close worth a dickens with my glasses on. Isn’t aging great???? Anyways, I finished filming and walked out of the room. After a minute, I realized I didn’t have my glasses on. ……
Power of Words
“What we have here is a failure to communicate”. This line was said by the character “Captain” in the film Cool Hand Luke to reason with Luke, a prisoner, about why he beat him. In that particular movie, that scene, and the power of those words, made sense. But that line has another meaning and……
Dreams
Ahhh, youth. The frivolous dreams and imagination of childhood. When you’re young, you are so excited about your dreams and all the opportunities out there in the world. Nothing is impossible. Fly to the moon and spread glitter all over it? You bet. Build a real Candyland? Absolutely. Save all the whales, elephants and unicorns?……
Finding Beauty
I love all things beautiful. But finding beauty in our world right now feels difficult. With all the bad news out there, it feels overwhelming and I know I feel helpless at times. Do you feel the same? Do you think, “What can I do to help”? Pray, donate funds, volunteer, be a positive person……
Gift of Life
Birth. The gift of life. But also, the ultimate death sentence. When we are born, we are one day closer to our death. We’re that much closer to our last breath. That sounds really morbid, but when you think about it, it’s true. Each day we live, we are nearer to our last day. So,……
Gadgets
Cell phones, TV remotes, and gadgets, oh my! Life as we know it has certainly become easier with all the conveniences gadgets provide. Or has it? As a 50+ year old, I am not a gadget person. I didn’t grow up with it, but I’ve fumbled along and embraced where we are with it. Sometimes,……
A Zit? At My Age?
This morning I was minding my own business, washing my face, when suddenly I noticed…(cue in scary horror movie music) a zit, right smack in the middle of my face! A zit? At my age? On the tip of my nose??? I screamed, (continuing with the horror movie theme here), “Noooooooooo!!!” What the heck?!? A……
The A.M. Shuffle
Woke up, shuffled out of bed. Made a beeline for the head. Sound familiar? If you’re a Beatles fan, then it should (it’s sung to the tune of “A Day in the Life”:) Or does it sound familiar because you FEEL the same way? Me too. And I call it the A.M. Shuffle. Every morning,……
Look at Yourself
Hey, you. Yes, you. It’s time to get serious. I want to talk to you about…You! Have you really looked at yourself recently? I mean, really looked? That’s what I want you to do right now…er…actually, after you read this article. But immediately afterwards, I want you to go look at yourself in the mirror. ……
