One thing keeping a person moving forward who desires a better attitude?
Month: June 2013
Baby Boomer truth or dare…
If we are not willing to learn, no one can help us.
If we are determined to learn, no one can stop us.
Live without excuses.
We are smart enough now, as Boomers, to completely get this.
Walt Disney has inspired countless Boomers (including me) to keep learning.
But this can’t be something reserved for Fantasyland.

Do we abdicate this our whole lives until we realize it’s quicksand?
Do we abdicate this our whole lives until we realize it’s quicksand?
Responsibility.
Our personal responsibility to make decisions for ourselves so someone else doesn’t have to?
Is it appropriate for aging adults to place this responsibility on their children?

Guest Blogger Lorie Sheffer: Brain fog
My husband came into the yard on Monday to ask me a question. I had been out there transplanting lavender, scrubbing the birdbath and watering my hanging baskets.
“Hey….. is there a reason that big pot of potatoes has been boiling on the stove for a LONG time?”
“Oh….. Um, yeah. Because I totally forgot about them.”
This led to a discussion among my female friends; apparently eggs explode when they cook dry, it doesn’t take long for a bathtub to overflow if it’s left running, and even the most well trained dog will pee on the floor if you forget to let it outside.
Memory lapses can give us a little moment of panic. We ARE getting older, and most of us know someone who has suffered from dementia. But we women have known for years that midlife can bring some really strange symptoms. Night sweats, dizziness, heart palpitations, and brain fog. Just last year, when my doctor asked how I was doing, I answered, “Sweaty and stupid.” He assured me that while this was unsettling, it was also normal and in time would pass.
I was sleeping rather peacefully yesterday when my husband woke me up to share a newsflash. Menopausal brain fog is REAL! Studies have proven it! Wow. Alert the presses on that one. Next thing you know studies will prove that as some men age, their hair may thin or they may lose it altogether.

A newly created mantra from a jeffnoel.org blog post comment
What’s the harsh reality of enjoying an amazing attitude this summer?
Making excuses why it will have to wait.
Perfect timing for a newly created mantra from a jeffnoel.org blog post comment:
Live without excuses
Note: looking at things (like this trail) from a different angle or from the opposite end, often reveal undisclosed opportunities to keep making progress – where progress is prohibited or discouraged.

To tackle today in a balanced way, I love jumping from mind (this blog) to body (this blog).
