What does it all mean?

What does it all mean?

Republican District 20 Chairman Anthony Miller of Arizona, who resigned puzzles me. Seems an odd move. Made me suspicious of what other motives he might have had. Perhaps he was going to resign anyway and used that parting shot to do some damage to the Tea Party. Otherwise I am surprised at his lack of guts. Even Ambassadors to benign countries get death threats all the time. Bombs are found under cars. They travel with a support vehicle never alone….

Thoughts on Happiness for the New Year

Thoughts on Happiness for the New Year

Happy New Year to all my friends and readers and everyone else! ?1-1-11 must be an enchanted day!! It is fun just to write that date and watch all those “1 s” appear as little exclamation points. I wore my new furry boots from Nobel Neilsen in Middleburg Virginia, on New Years Eve, (cause I actually just went out to baby sit some of my grandchildren) New Year’s Eve is NOT a good night to party just for the sake…

Thanksgiving, what does it mean to you?

Thanksgiving, what does it mean to you?

My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving.? No presents to worry about, and much less expense and decorating than Christmas makes this a more calm holiday. Our family is close enough to really enjoy each other. No one has to fly to be here for the day. That is a huge plus this year. Thanksgiving is a time to be grateful. We will have four generations at this party. And this year my youngest son and his wife are hosting all the…

Enough is Enough!

Enough is Enough!

Something needs to be said about the TSA. This whole body scan thing has gone completely out of control. For years now I have been removing my shoes, taking out my laptop, removing my jewelry and metal headband, I take off my jacket and meekly go through being scanned by (the old fashioned) screening that we all must walk through, but now they have gone too far.? I will not be X-rayed needlessly. And I resent the fact that anyone…

20 ideas for life

20 ideas for life

1. Be a student of life. Learn something new every day. The day you stop learning is the day you begin to become obsolete. Never stop learning. 2. None of us is Perfect. The sooner you know this in your heart, the sooner you can start being excellent. Begin every morning fresh and ready for whatever challenges await you. Try harder than you did the day before. Never give up. You can achieve that which seemed impossible. 3. Play the hand…

Happy in a Hurry: 7 Steps to Happiness

Happy in a Hurry: 7 Steps to Happiness

Happiness starts out as an image. Just like everything else it is controlled by the Law of Attraction. It is up to each of us to make our own happiness. It is a lot like love, it cannot be forced, but it can sneak up on you. First you can simply move your lips into the shape of a smile. You will find that just doing that makes you feel better. If you want to laugh, I suggest watching funny…

5 Myths About Sex After 50

5 Myths About Sex After 50

The nice thing about becoming an older woman is that years of experience have led to a much greater understanding of our bodies and our sexuality. And as we sail into our late 60s, through the 70s and on into 80s, we become much more accepting of our partners than younger women. Probably because we are just grateful to still have a partner at this stage in the game. (Which is important because, believe me, I know of 90-year-olds who…

sex and the vibrator

sex and the vibrator

Today I was browsing sites that deal with women their problems and desires as they age. One of my favorites is Libido fo Life. There I found a post by Joan Price who wrote Better Than I Ever Expected: Straight Talk about Sex after Sixty and the upcoming Naked at Our Age. She had answered a question about using a vibrator rather than having an orgasm without electrical enhancement. That struck a chord with me, because when writing my book…

thoughts on the 4th of July

thoughts on the 4th of July

Thomas Jefferson said: All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. That quote above is exactly what the Tea Parties are trying to prevent, silence. Of course they don’t have the answers. We are not even sure of the questions. But to say that nothing is wrong, or even “just be patient and let the politicians work this out.” is folly. Someone said “We must play with the cards we are dealt.”…

Melon and Prociutto

Melon and Prociutto

It is Sunday morning and I was up early making my coffee. ?Sitting on the cutting board was a fresh melon that I bought yesterday but forgot to store in the refrigerator. When I opened the door of my fridge and rearranged some things to make room, I noticed a package of prociutto that I had forgotten I had. Slicing the melon, tearing off some pieces of the meat, my breakfast satisfied hunger and gave me mental entertainment. This is…

Do you wonder whether home birth is safe or not?

Do you wonder whether home birth is safe or not?

The following commentary was written as an answer to an article about birthing at home versus hospital birth.? They characterized home birth as being less safe.? OBGmanagement.com had the article online. I decided to put my response on my blog because it may stir up some controversy and make people think.? That is what I want more than anything. If I can help encourage people to think for themselves that is the most I can ask. I don’t care so…

what on earth are people thinking?

what on earth are people thinking?

Women are daft when it comes to meeting men. They all say that there are no men out there.? Of course the men all say that they cannot find a woman. What is going on here? With all the online websites for singles there really is no reason women and men cannot find each other.? Just be careful and smart about how you go about it.? Don’t give out personal information until you feel completely secure about someone. Don’t get…

What part of our health is controlled by our thoughts?

What part of our health is controlled by our thoughts?

Could it be that our thoughts are the MOST powerful part of our health. I have been listening to Dr.Dean Radin discussing how our thoughts and intentions have a measurable effect on our physiology. It is vital to understand this. I recommend that anyone interested in gaining back homeostasis listen to his audio files on this subject. He is a respected scientist and his name has been synonymous with healing for decades. It is not ‘fringe’ science. It is becoming…
