SENIOR MOMENT 4 WOMEN

REMEMBERING FEMALE SOLDIERS  WHO SACRIFICED!

https://www.joann.com Note: Please excuse the font problem! I'll admit this year I have been less motivated to get out of my house.   I'm not sick because I've been  blessed. My aggravating aches  and pains are gone.  I say a prayer  if they flare-up and keep on moving.  My mom is 86 years old and she is  still somewhat active. She can still drive to church, grocery store,  and  appointments. I admire her spunk  and I  can't  let my 86 year old mother outdo me!  My friends have called me to go on trips or help  them with their volunteer work.  I declined this  time.  I decided that spending 4-6 hours on a tour bus was no longer exciting. The volunteer jobs that my friends take part in are stressful. Most of these jobs  are not  in my community anyway.  Making holiday gift baskets for people in Rest Homes is more my speed.  I meet friends for lunch an...

BestProducts.com I'm happy to see spring flowers blooming.  My Japanese Magnolia  tree is full of lovely  mauve-pink flowers. https://readytogrowtrees.com  There is a nest in my pear tree so birds are chirping away  near my window.  My deck and car are  covered with that green stuff called pollen.  This is always a bittersweet sign that spring has  arrived. It's a necessary occurrence so I won't complain! https://www.vox.com Observing spring's glory has prompted me to pull  out my spring & summer clothes. Some of them are mighty tired and worn out looking.  I need to see what's trending this spring. I have gotten a few department store ads in the mail already.  I browsed through some of them while  I sipped on my morning coffee. Most of the styles in the women's section are classics.  I see jumpsuits are back in style. The upgrades to the jumpsuits look pret...

https://afonie.com NOTE: PLEASE OVERLOOK  PROBLEMS WITH FONT AND COLOR ISSUES! I must admit that I fell prey to the designer handbag  craze in the '70s. I was a young mother with two  young boys at that time. I asked my husband  to get the designer handbag for my Christmas gift.  I wrote down the name "Aigner" for him on  paper so would have it in his wallet.  I didn't   trust him to go shopping without it.  He called me at worked and he  sounded  anxious. He asked me if I  realized that  the "Aigner" handbag cost $100! I answered in a  soft voice, "Yes".  He said "Ok" and pointed  out  this would be my only Christmas gift. I said that this was fine since we still  had   the boys Christmas gifts to buy.  My 70's handbag looked like this! http://www.onlyfashionbags.com I carried this handbag every day.  I broke the   han...

https://www.youtube.com Note: Please overlook font issues! I was saddened when I became allergic to hair  dye. I declared that I wouldn't stop coloring my hair  until I was 70 years old. Well, my wake up  call has  come!  It was a silly notion  anyhow! Situations that  happen when I am aging is not always under my control. You learn to work with it and avoid the stress! I have finally earned to embrace my grey hair. I must admit that the trend of  young ladies  flaunting grey hair amazed  me. I began  to feel silly.  Young ladies  were not intimidated  by grey.  Why should I be scared of looking old? The truth is any mature woman can look FOXY with grey hair. The trick I learned was, I must wear a dynamite hair cut and keep my natural grey hair healthy looking. Dull and yellow looking grey hair is a  No! No! I have tried several shampoo...

MILO TAKING A NAP! I have procrastinated long enough. I lost my beloved Raja 2 years ago. She was a shepherd-mini pen mix. She lived for 20 years and she died from cancer. It was tough losing her because she was the smartest dog our family has ever owned. My husband was disabled and she helped him a lot. She grieved for weeks after he passed. She refused to go into his favorite room . IN MEMORY OF RAJA! I missed having a dog so much. I was blessed when I met an owner who had one Jackshund ( Dachshund/Jack Russell Terrier mix) left from his litter. https://www.dog-learn.com He was 3 months old and weighed ten pounds. This shy fellow, felt secure when my son held him.   It was amazing how my son and I liked the same name, Milo.  This little pooch is too lively for me. He insists that this senior lady play ball with him daily. Let's say he's made me leave my easy chair! MILO WITH HIS FAVORITE BALL! My son ...
