Being in the Moment

by drpeggy on December 22, 2009

I find myself moving from blog to blog. Every time I consider combining them, I realize that each one captures a particular part of me. So, I will continue along using each of my blogs to talk about various aspects of life. To catch up, read on.

I recently took a trip to Dublin, Ireland. It was an amazing trip to spite the rain and gale force winds (I really do know now what gale force winds are). I was so looking forward to taking photos.

Full Circle

by drpeggy on October 23, 2009

It’s been awhile since I have posted on this blog. I spent the last four months helping my mother close out her life in western New York State and move to Atlanta. I spoke about this in my last post.

The Tweezer(s) Tale

June 30, 2009

Something really bad happened to me the other day. I couldn’t find my tweezers. This may not seem like a big deal to most of our readers, or even to most people in the world. But I know there are postmenopausal women out there silently thinking “Oh, no!”
I looked everywhere. They [...]

Welcome to our Blog!

June 12, 2009

This blog began as a conversation between two women in their fifties, each in a new and unfamiliar phase of their lives. Haunani and Peggy were both business women who closed businesses in 2008. You will hear more details about that simply stated fact in several postings on this blog. Check out [...]
