SENIOR MOMENT 4 WOMEN

https://www.teleflora.com The fall season is here. I know  I'll have to do something  soon with this huge planter full of snake plants. Snake  plants are tropical plants and can't tolerate winter frost. I did keep some snake plants  in my greenhouse one year. They were doing ok until the nighttime temp dropped to  20 degrees! They looked like green wet noodles!  I had some snake plant cuttings in shallow containers  under my  white bench. Well, I  was  so wrong!  The containers  were hit  by strong wind gusts.  I found them flipped upside down, in the  middle of my porch. This mess stained my  beige print outdoor rug.  I scooped up the  mess and placed it in a grocery bag.  I  placed it behind my outdoor furniture.   I planned  to throw the whole mess out later. This  week  I was sweeping  my porch.  I fo...

https://wall.alphacoders.com I retired from banking industry 6 years ago.  I have enjoy having time to rummage in thrift  stores. I  also  have time to visit dollar and discount  stores during  the  week when most people are at  work.  Some of the discount stores have closeout products and clothes they obtained from  expensive  department stores.  The brand  name tags have  been cut or they have a  black mark on them.   Those fantastic  bargains are out there  waiting  for me.  I hope the information I shared below  is  helpful for bargain hunters. I have been using a fantastic antiseptic oil  for the skin for the last 5 years.  This oil is called melaleuca or tea tree oil.  I use  it  when I get insect bites and  acne.   I have  also seen it added to  shampoo ...

www.kingarthurflour.com I am retired but my son still works.  He loves to cook and sometimes  he'll  treat me to one of his meals.  I usually get to enjoy one of his meals once a week.   He loves creating new recipes.  He  knows that I am a chocolate lover. I don't mind being his taste taster; especially, with chocolate.  My local grocery store had dark  chocolate brownie mix on a closeout sale for 65 cents. I bought all that was  left on the shelf. This was a once in a lifetime bargain! He asked could he experiment with one of the  boxes of brownies. Of course,  this chocolate consumer said,  "Sure!" Here is his chocolate creation: BROWNIE SMORES BARS CRUST: 3 packs graham crackers, crushed 1 stick butter, melted In large bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with butter.  Press evenly in 9x12 baking dish. Set aside...

www.everydayhealth.com I'll admit that I had to stop being in denial.  My memory was not what it used to be.  Since I retired, I was no longer stressing out  over bank accounts and meeting loss mitigation loans deadlines.  I was glad I was out of this stressful environment.  The problem  now is, staying mentally stimulated to ward off severe short-term  memory loss.   Some age-related memory loss is normal.  I found this out  when my friends and I had a discussion about silly mistakes we have made since we retired.  Now I know why my mother balks at people moving her  things around.  I understand why looking at old TV shows is no  longer boring. Seeking the familiar is comforting. I had to establish a routine and make rules for myself  to avoid making tragic mistakes. I want to be independent and live alone for several years. I want my grown  children to co...

https://www.sallyhansen.com I have always loved polished fingernails.  One of my ways  of  winding down is  doing  my nails every Saturday night.  I  used to pay money to have my nails done at hair salons.  I got tired of loosing  glued on nails and getting fill-ins. My nails grew fast and getting weekly  fill-ins were not  an option. I finally  wised  up and started having the nail  tech  paint nails in primary colors.  These  colors of nail polish  were easy  to  find at discount stores. I was able  to buy the nail polish and  do my own fill- ins. https://www.yelp.com/biz/fantasy-nail I would get lots of compliments when I did my own nails.  Therefore, I started doing  my own manicures and painting my own nails.  I have a large basket which holds about 20 bottles of pretty  nail polish. I love...
