Happy Friday, everyone.  Let’s return to book reviews and today I have a book review: Beautiful Aging. The author of Beautiful Aging,  Janie Bartlett, asked if I would review her book.  At first, I wondered how it was different from other books on aging and after a letter from her, I was convinced I should read about what beautiful aging is. I do think her extensive research and footnotes have convinced me that she does not what she is taking about with beautiful aging…or as some would prefer…healthy aging. She is a all natural supplement expert, but this book is not selling an ..read more

Happy Saturday!  I thought it might be helpful if I share my perfect gifts of blessings during recovery. The perfect gifts are the ones that worked and thus were labeled a blessing…so I thought I would share why. I put a card at the top, because I loved the card so much as a great graphic to encourage me to see this recovery time as a journey to wellness as well Perfect gifts in recovery are those which reflect thoughtfulness to the recovery situation…and I certainly have received those from friends and family. So, get your comfy Saturday spot and let’s discuss how you can bless others w ..read more

Happy Friday, friends!  I am excited to share with you today a review of Regenerative Skincare & Makeup by Brian. I was introduced to by Brian six weeks before my surgery and I simply could not be more pleased and excited to represent the by Brian regenerative skincare & makeup line. Typically, when I am out and about, I use the restroom mirrors to check my hair and outfit…but lately I have stopped, smiled and felt amazing at looking over my complexion. After using the same skincare for a few years, I can clearly see that I needed a boost and turning 70 was a good time to conside ..read more

Happy Monday and U.S. Labor Day, everyone!  Today, I am excited to introduce you to Apex Footwear: Help for Painful Feet.

I spend most of my time lately wearing flip flops so the toes can bend pain free….nevertheless, that is also a problem as the shoes affect my walking and balance. Plus, I have several friends in San Antonio who have family with diabetes and are in need o ..read more

Good Monday morning, everyone!  I hope you had a wonderful weekend.  As per a reader request, I am going to share with you my typical morning routine over 60. I have written often that I am a creature of habit and believe in routine, and consistency.   I am healthier when I am true to the routine. Therefore, my morning routine is the same unless we are traveling or experienced a late night.
