Mapping Midlife

This is what I love about good ideas – if you didn’t quite get them the first time around, they often keep circling back. The same is true of great resources. If you’re like me, you have a long, long, long list of bookmarked sites on your computer – and you use about five of those links.

It’s Autumn – time for rummaging and rediscovering. Are you starting to pull out your fall/winter wardrobe? Are you finding a few wonderful surprises in the process? I didn’t even remember that I owned a couple of great dresses. Are you taking advantage of this great walking weather and rediscovering beautiful places you’d forgotten? I hadn’t remembered how peaceful it is to sit on a rock in Central Park.

Next time you want a quick adventure – maybe a rainy day, maybe just a little spare time – rediscover the resources in your own computer. Go to your bookmark bar and start rummaging.

I had forgotten some great sites. Some are funny, some are great recipe resources, some are beautifully written blogs. One that I can’t believe I had forgotten is the National Association of Baby Boomer Women and its sister site, BoomerWomenSpeak. NABBW has something for everyone – there’s even a section on male menopause. There’s advice, articles from members, book reviews, and all kinds of resources. Dotsie Bregel and her crew host teleclasses, send out a newsletter, and provide ways for women to connect.
