Clothing Store tricks that make us spend more in a Sale.
We all know that Sales are held to make you buy things you didn’t know you wanted and probably don’t. But find me someone who can resist a Sale which includes items with amazing prices?
The 55Plus Woman: being Aware!
An aware woman in the 55Plus bracket. If that’s you, I’m wondering if you will be sweet and kind enough (I know you will!) to answer a few questions for me? Please?!
Blogs: So you Want to Write One
Have you noticed how many courses there are about writing blogs? Most of them extol the virtues of blogging (of course they do … they want you to buy the course!) and give you 5 ways (or 7 or 10 or whatever) to monetise what you write.
I’ve been writing blogs for over 10 years and have never ever made 6 figures in one month and these lovely creatures do just that … 6 figures … constantly … from their blogs! I’m obviously doing it wrong …
66 and still having hot sweats … menopause!
I’m going to start by saying sweats, flushes, flashes, whatever you want to call these side-effects of menopause can last through to your 80s. You didn’t want to hear that, but it’s true. At 73 I still have hot flushes and they’re almost as bad now as back in my 50s.

Best Bags for your Body Shape
Dressing to suit your body shape is one thing, but finding the bag that fits the whole picture is another. Like your clothes, your bags require careful consideration and the only bags that will change your life are the ones you use every day. Having said that (and I’m hoping I didn’t rain on your parade), the most important thing to understand is that whatever your shape, the bag is about creating balance.
Menopause; find a Cunning Plan
A little about menopause, perimenopause and even post-menopause. Some of this you will know but I hope there are a few take-aways for you to help with the experience of potentially one of the most challenging parts of your life as a woman….
Sleepy and Tired after Meals?
Last week I wrote an article about feeling tired after meals. If you’re a blogger you will know there are a lot of things you’re supposed to do to attract readers and one of them is using numbers For example 10 Reasons why … or 5 ways to do … or The 7 Best ways to …
What Others Think of Me is None of my Business
It sounds harsh doesn’t it? But when you understand its true meaning you’ll understand how empowering it is; what makes it empowering is the simple use of that little pronoun MY. There is no defence or blame when you include personal responsibility.
Ageism, Feminism and Equality
It doesn’t matter how much society as a whole appears to accept 55+ women, they don’t. Not even in the US where baby boomer women are, in many ways, more out there than elsewhere. Or are there just more of them?!
