Long may it serve to help other women feel good about themselves.I have some thoughts about men-o-pause. Consider the number of meanings when the 'men' part is removed i.e. O (short moment) pause; o (short moment) PAUSE. The "o-pause' in it's various connotations sounds like exclamations and instructions.With 'men'

So how is your summer shaping up?

Mood: MenoGramma!

Menogramma, that's me! My lovely granddaughter Mackenzie was here for awhile on Saturday and again today, what fun we have together. Today we baked cookies, played on the swings outside, fed the ponies next door, run, run, and run some more! Who needs a weight loss program with a kid like that?

You can soon forget how tiring it is to run after a 2 yr old. Wow! Then she likes to play that I am the baby and she puts me to bed. WEll. that works great cause I get to lay down, but then she insists on covering me up. That doesnt work so well when I Hot Flash! Yikes, get those blankets off me! She scolds me and says put those blankets on! What we won't do for our grand kids!

Life is getting really busy now. I was feeling punky last Thursday, and stayed home from work with an upset tummy. You never know these days what it is, a virus, something you ate, stress...who me the lady who does motivational talks about being stressed out and how to handle it! Yes I will admit it folks, I do get stressed out. Lots happening around me. My heritage project to build an industrial heritage centre here in my home Town of Brantford, ON is looking closer to a reality...waiting for funding, and approvals etc.. Have a big presentation to do in a week and a half. Love Light and Laughter how to get what your after! We are swamped at work with resume clients. This summer is already booking up with events, including a wedding, a pig roast and of course having Doreen South my spiritual/medium friend for a visit in August! Helping my daughter with the little one while she works so hard at her clinic The Grand Wellness Centre, and well,trying to fit in visits with mom, and a special potluck for the cousins on Wednesday night coming...ARRRRGGHH,... there isn't enough hours in a day!

But then again, would I have it any other way? Not likely. I enjoy being busy. I used to think when I was home a young mom, and feeling trapped..I just want to be one of those women who always has somewhere to go! Be Careful what you wish for!

So how's your summer looking?
