See the title? I could also be saying, who am I? Wow – that’s a big question, but I’m feeling somewhat discombobulated (I love that word) at the moment. We’ve just returned to our flat, after a week away. But not quite. Our bathroom is a plaster shell and we
Something to be proud of – and a big thank you!
Hey, I went to Pride last Saturday and stood in the heat and watched the Parade. The above pic was taken during the week on a quiet day in a back street, therefore, no crowds unlike Saturday. But, so proud of Pride and Brighton – it’s why I moved to
Fitness as we age, and the blocks we put in the way of it. You’ll hear that I’m still doing that!
This post is written to encourage all of you who’ve been thinking about taking up some exercise but are still at that thinking stage – I’ve been there and done that! It’s also written to show you that we’re all human and that often we dither and are unsure about what’s
Is this the best of the three dresses?
Up to London again, this time to the Mole Clinic for my annual skin check. Link here for details. I like the thoroughness of the examination and the time given to looking at every part of your body except your scalp. And a big hooray as nothing found, which is
A close look at health, wellbeing and just having fun – as the years roll by!
Had another birthday recently – 72 now. I asked myself how did that happen! Well, it’s just something you cannot escape. The years roll by and there you are – you’re over 70! I do think turning 70 is crunch time. Listen, when I reached my 60s I felt absolutely
Fit for the 21st Century? I’m talking about this blog!
Hello everyone Yes, this blog. We’ve been working hard to bring the blog up to 21st Century standards re: data regulations. By the 25th May there will be a new page on the menu with our Privacy Policy and I’ll do a post, which will include a short summary of
An update on the fitness thing
This blog has always been more than just the charity shop shopping and the clothes I wear. It’s also about women and ageing, and how we can age well and all the positive things we can do to be healthy and (yes, I like this word) comfortable as we age.
Life, death and living well
Have you read anything by the author Barbara Ehrenreich? I hadn’t, but apparently she’s a radical sceptic and free-thinker and she’s just about to publish a book here in the UK called Natural Causes: Life, Death and the Illusion of Control. And I’m about to do the very worst thing
What do you do? Hair up or down, bar of soap, bath or shower?
Hello again I thought I’d have some fun and answer some questions that are going round the blogosphere (started with the Blended Blog, I believe). Look, I read this stuff so you don’t have to! But rather like another blogger (Anna from Mutton Style and I) I quite enjoyed thinking
A new you this year? Or is it more about maintenance and preserving the old(er) you!
As you know, I’ve hinted a few times that I’m not particularly on top form these days. That’s partly due to a virus I had, and partly to not taking a fitness class – for months – and walking really wasn’t sufficient. Because OK, I may look stylish and slim,
