It’s been five months since I last wrote in this health diary. Since my son, Chris, and I started to share monthly health goals with each other we’ve improved our lifestyle. Last year, we got to the point where we were both down to our ideal weight, improved our eating habits, and developed exercise routines that worked for us. You can see our progress over time in my blog category “Health Goal Diary.”
Chris and I agree that making these monthly goals together and posting our results here for you to see helps us to improve our health. I’ve always found that if I say out loud to someone what I plan on doing, I’m more likely to do it. Because if I say I will, I feel responsible to follow through.
Since it takes 21-30 days to develop a new habit, making a goal for the month ahead is an effective strategy. Age doesn’t matter. It’s never too late. You can always make progress and actually reverse the aging process!
Now that a new year is beginning, Chris and I are planning new goals, picking up from where we left off. Our last goals were: for Chris to balance enough exercise with a low-carb diet so he would see a difference; and for me to catch up on my summer outdoor swimming that was hindered by bad weather, injury and sickness.
Traditions get passed down from one generation to the next. Our family is in a transition phase now, with a new generation being born and raised. I want to know how to pass on our Christmas traditions. Do you have any experience with this? Can you tell me how to engage the next generation in order to sustain our traditions? I’d really appreciate your feedback!
(P.S. Age doesn’t matter. Whether you are from one generation or the other, I still want to hear what you think.)
On Christmas Eve every year, my family celebrates Wigilia. We never knew that, though; we just knew we had our family’s traditional Polish feast once a year on Christmas Eve. Following the dinner, we gather around the tree and share gifts like everyone else does at Christmas time.
Embellished articles of clothing can make an ordinary outfit spectacular. Choose from embellished blouses, sweaters, tunic tops, cardigans, jackets, pants, skirts, and dresses. Age doesn’t matter because you can get these pieces in any shape, size and style that you love and that looks good on you.
So, do you have plans to meet friends or family or business associates at a restaurant for dinner? You’ll want to look good across the table with sparkling jewels or a pretty top. Or meet them in a beautiful turnout. And, of course, the little black dress fits in anywhere, and here is no exception. These looks are for everybody. For instance, shoulders are the last thing to go. Here’s a guide full of outfit ideas for what to wear out to the restaurant. Age doesn’t matter when you’ve got style!
