Get the Inside Scoop on Beauty for Women over 40
Where I’ve Been This Week This past week has been so busy for me which is why I have been MIA. Not sure if the next several weeks will be much different. I am having my basement “finished” in July and probably August. I wish I had done this 20 years ago when I first …
It’s the weekend, and we’re expecting another snowstorm and temperatures around 0. Ugh. But we will stay inside and watch the Olympics today and the Super Bowl tomorrow night.

We’re officially getting a little bit more daylight every day till the Summer Solstice. In fact, we get a little more than a minute a day more daylight now. Today’s sunset where I live was at 4:28pm! (That’s a big deal because less than a month ago, the sun set at 4:10pm.) And as of …
This was such a busy weekend that I didn’t get a chance to post the weekly roundup from Beauty & Style Spotlight Team. My good friend Sue who moved to D.C. almost two years ago called me at the last minute when she decided to come for the night on Friday on her way back …
Have a lovely weekend everyone! It’s time to get the Fall clothing back into our closets and embrace the beautiful Autumn colours.

As usual, I have my end of summer funk. Very sad that the days are noticeably shorter. And this past week’s autumnal temperatures didn’t help. But today (Saturday) and Sunday are supposed to be warmer, maybe even beach weather. Oh, but our beach, Good Harbor Beach in Gloucester MA, is closed for swimming because a …
Hope you’re staying cool in the heat! We went for a 3 hour boat trip around Cape Ann (Gloucester & Rockport MA) to beat the heat. I’ll show you some of my pix next week.

It’s rained every weekend for the past 12 weeks. Weird, right? But we’re out of a drought for at least a little while. I know the weather is strange, and in some places, scary and upsetting, so I’m not complaining about some rain. On Saturday evening, we’re going to see the play, TopDog/UnderDog, a Pulitzer …
We had a Nor’easter on Thursday night. Tough drive home in the rain and wind from the plant auction at the North Shore Horticultural Society. When I got home I noticed that the power had gone out because the clocks were stopped. Then the security system that runs on the lines from my old landline …
I’ve been working in my yard and gardens all week. But progress is being made. Yesterday, I gave away a lot of perennial geraniums to women in my local Buy Nothing group, and I will give away more next week. I planted some of my Japanese Kerria that’s in full bloom in my backyard at …
