Always sounds so good over here on your blog!<br /><br />My 3rd daughter will celebrate her birthday on Sept. 15. She's going to be 11. Still don't know when those 11 years came and went.

I think that cake is something I can do!<br /><br />Wish I could wave a wand and make everyone's issues go away. <br /><br />My history tells me that we need to be very kind to ourselves; give yourself "down time"; do nothing for a while (and I mean nothing); sip on a mint tulip, put up your feet and contemplate.

Didn't have trouble with anxiety, just unbelievable hot flashes - and GOSH do I know I'm old since I just admitted I "did" go through menopause! And came out the other side already!<br />4. I am going to 'watch this space' with you in hopes that someone has suggestions for funny but not crude movies. I was laughing out loud last week as I re-watched the Julia Ormond/Harrison Ford version of Sabrina.. some funny lines in that. And I can hardly wait to see 'Mom's Night Out.'
