Trip Report

Spain and London

Trip Report

I Met a Rock Star

They Come in All Shapes and Sizes and for all Reasons

Rock Star

Lucky me! I met a rock star this week. No. Not Taylor Swift. Not Ringo Starr. Not anyone you’d know by name. You won’t recognize her face. She doesn’t even sing or play with a band. But still, unquestionably, the woman is a rock star.

A grab bag of silly tidbits

I’ve got a lot on my mind! Fortunately, none of it is serious or consequential. More random and scattered  … like pollen … without the sneezing or itchy eyes! It’s a grab bag of assorted silly tidbits.  I’m ready to share. Here goes …

The Dreams Keep Coming

Wonderous. Yet, Worrisome

Middle-Aged Women are In!

We're Hot and Bothered - In a Good Way!

Middle-aged women are in

Middle-aged women are “in.” What a relief, ladies (and the people who love us)! We’re no longer undesirable. No longer untouchable.
