Mid-Life Fitness: Find A New Sense of Purpose
The middle years of life have a bad reputation. Who hasn’t heard the horror stories? Mid-life is supposedly when gravity and hormones take control of your face, your figure, and your frame of mind, leaving you cantankerous, wrinkled, and bulging in all the wrong places. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Jean Dawson was a 40-year-old housewife and mother when her life changed...for the better. She was... (posted by S M Calhoun 4 years 236 days ago.)

How Do Toxins Make You Fat?
An estimated 81% of Americans are overweight. Of that number, 31% are considered obese. We eat too much, we eat the wrong kinds of food, we don’t exercise enough, and we get stressed out with daily life. You knew that. But did you know this? Studies have found that toxins (a synonym for poisons) are making us fat…keeping us fat…and setting us up for life-threatening diseases? MEET YOUR ENEMY (posted by S M Calhoun 4 years 236 days ago.)

You Can Wallpaper Like a Pro!
The first time I gave a wallpapering demonstration, my knees were knocking together and my hands were trembling as violently as my aging grandfather’s. I was standing before a class of peers in my college speech class, and my "wall" was a refrigerator box! Speaking to an audience will never be my forte.

Is Your Child Ready for School?
Is Your Child Ready for School? If you're the parent of an infant or toddler, you might be bristling with indignation at such a preposterous question. Or perhaps you’re good-natured enough to laugh and mildly protest: "Hey! Give him time to be a kid!" Either way, you are quite correct.
