“Water is life’s simplest elixir—and one of the most powerful tools for aging well.” After a year or two of heart issues, I finally saw the cardiologist. I was having the opposite issue of most folks my age. My blood pressure kept dropping. That bottom number would fall below 60, and as a result I …
Where my 80’s music fans at? Remember that song, ironically by a group called Klymaxx? “Don’t you know the men all pausewhen I walked into the room. The men all pause and the brides held their grooms” Yeah. Only pause I’ve got is the meno-pause! Why is it that we go from one extreme to …
I am desperately trying to get back to my weekly posts, but for the past few days, (actually for over a week now) I have been experiencing some chest pains. I started thinking about a post that I had written a while back on broken heart syndrome. I mean, my heart is definitely broken. Could …
Does anyone remember the movie Barefoot in the Park? Once again, I’m dating myself and reaffirming my love of rom-coms. But, I’m not talking about the 1967 (And no! I wasn’t old enough to be into romantic comedies in 67!) Neil Simon rom-com film starring Jane Fonda and Robert Redford. I think it was adapted from …
Okay, so I can’t seem to get a consistent yoga practice going for my body, now I need to do face yoga? I’ve been pretty open with my struggle to accept my aging face, and I’m convinced these phones are listening to me bitch about it! Why? Because suddenly, I’m getting ads and suggestions on …
I have to admit that the last few weeks have been a bit of a struggle. The news just goes from bad to worse. It’s rare that they report on anything positive. Or is it just me? Politics. Global warming. Inflation. Trump. Racism. (redundant) I mean, talk of civil wars and s#*t! Really? It’s a …
“I’m talking square biz to you, baby. Square, square biz!” Nope. This post isn’t about Tina Marie. I’m sorry, I just wasn’t a fan. Sorry Rick. Sorry Tina. Okay. Funny story. Well, is is to me. I’m going to lose a few of you on this, but where are my 70’s Jackson 5 fans? Michael …
I was listening to one of the podcasts that I subscribe to last week and the topic was the female brain, and how aging and hormones affect women’s and men’s brains differently. The woman was Dr. Lisa Mosconi, a Ph.D founder of Women’s Brain Initiative and associate director of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Clinic, and Assoc. …
As I filled in my eyebrows recently, I just got so pissed off. (I know you are thinking, “she sure is pissed off a lot lately!”) First of all, it’s hard to color them in when you can’t see. When you put on your glasses, they get in the way of the process. The struggle is …
And no, they are not new Disney characters! Recently, one of my subscribers (and old friend…not old, old, but old as in been around a long damn time!) mentioned that in middle age, she was suddenly suffering from eczema and if I recall correctly, either an increased issue with asthma or newly developed asthma. I …
