This is a diary of the healthy lifestyle goals that my son, Chris, and I are making together each month.
Since it takes 21-30 days to develop a new habit, making a goal for the month ahead is an effective strategy.
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 said I would, I feel responsible to follow through.
Age doesn’t matter. It’s never too late. You can always make progress and actually reverse the signs of aging!
In May, my goal was to count calories (for the first time ever!) and keep them down to 1200 a day. Chris was so exhausted from insomnia and hard work that he decided to try to get enough sleep each night.Continue Reading
Over the holiday weekend, I attended the Walk Fashion Show in Detroit’s Eastern Market district. The venue was big enough to accommodate a large runway, a light-show backdrop, photography shoots, fashion and beauty vendors, food and drink stands, and the designers with plenty of front-row and close-up seating.

Although they were sheer, there were only peeks of sheerness here and there with all else covered by unique design details. When you can see but not see, age doesn’t matter. Continue Reading
If you’re going out of town for the holiday and need some tips to get everything to fit in your bag (age doesn’t matter, we all face this dilemma), I have a great 10-step process for you!
I just went on a vacation with my husband for our 35th wedding anniversary. I always pack too much “just in case.” I actually did remove a number of things before packing this time, but it was still a tight fit. I haven’t even tried the packing cubes yet, but I love how the technique shown below works! Continue Reading
I don’t know about you, but I want to have lifelong health and learn the secrets of how to live to 100 years or beyond! There are plenty of role models in this world letting us know that age doesn’t matter; it doesn’t have to stop movement, exploration, learning, beauty, self-expression. Your true self is love, it’s wisdom, and it doesn’t stop.
With that in mind, I am presenting links to articles and videos on centenarians and how they made it to age 100 or more. Continue Reading
In regards to your true self, age doesn’t matter. You are who you are, your spirit is ageless, you can have lifelong health and make the most of what you have. You just have to use it or you lose it!
But in regards to makeup, it just isn’t made to last. Red lipstick gets rusty-looking, mascara gets gloppy and dried out, moisturizer turns moldy and smelly. If you don’t use it, just lose it!
So how are we to know when products are too old and maybe unhealthy to keep using? I have collected the lists and guides in this post that you need in order to clean out and clean up your makeup stash. All the info is here at your fingertips!
