Question about height
Wednesday, December 18, 2019 9 comments I had my annual checkups with doctors and a strange thing happened. They usually weigh me but have been lax on measuring height. Over 10 years ago in a doctor office, we realized I'd lost an inch. That being said, the nurse decided to measure... Read more

Feeling grateful
Saturday, July 28, 2018 5 comments Last fall I was talking to a friend, Marybeth, who may I add, teaches yoga, that I'd like to try yoga but was afraid of injuries. You see, I had purchased a gentle yoga DVD for over 50 a couple years before and tried it the first time and hurt ... Read more
