Remember Me....You're Always Loved

I live in a senior community and the majority of my friends are senior citizens. And it seems like almost everyday I hear about someone whose loved one has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. This devastating disease has no cure and it not only robs the person suffering from it; it robs the family of their loved one. There is no known cure at this time. More research is needed to erratic this horrible disease.

I'm please to announce that the company I am a part of is doing just that!! Color Street has designed a beautiful purple nail strip with butterflies and hearts!! NEW 💜 Always Loved 💜


NOVEMBER is Alzheimer's Awareness Month. Wear your support for Alzheimer's Awareness with Always Loved, a butterfly and heart design in shades of purple.
Now to the end of November 2018, $2 from the purchase of every set is going to the Fisher Center for Alzheimer's Research Foundation, which is dedicated to finding a cure through groundbreaking research, improving the care of people living with Alzheimer's disease, and supporting their caregivers and family members.

You can find yours right here in my Color Street website!!

I appreciate your support of this worthy cause.

It's Keepin' Me Off The Streets

When I retired, my only "plan" was to sleep in and have lazy mornings drinking my coffee and watching the Today Show. Those were the simple luxuries I looked forward to. I planned to never, ever look at a computer again!! You know, just relax!! That lasted about 3 months. Then boredom set in!


And here we are, six years later and I'm busier than I've ever been!! I'm writing a blog, organized an HOA, have become politically active, writing not one, but two, monthly newsletters and just recently started a new business!! And just yesterday I learned how to make my own videos! Call me crazy!!


But I have to say, I've never felt more alive!! No more sleeping in and letting my mind go to mush, I'm learning new things everyday. Yes, I've had to 'bite the bullet' and buy a new computer. And I get frustrated everyday with technology, but I think it's helping me stay sharp. A lady in our community who is in her 90's says it best, "You're a second class citizen if you don't use computers these days". And she knows best since she is in the dark on the goings on in the cyber world and she's feeling very left out!I




So I encourage you all to "think outside the box" and do something everyday to help your mind and body stay fit. Learn a new skill! Start a new activity. Join a club or even start a club. Go meet new people. Get up and get out! Do something that really challenges you!!  Step out of your comfort zone and jump in with both feet! You won't be sorry! You're mind and your body will love you for it!!

Where Have All The Flowers Gone???

Where did summer go? I just realized I haven't posted on my blog since September 1st! Say whaaat? Life has been a whirlwind for sure!!

We had our New York family visiting for two weeks in September. It was wonderful, but the time went by SO fast. My hubby and his brother were able to reconnect after years of living on separate coasts. I had the opportunity to get to know my sister-in-law. And we all traveled together around the PNW together. Many old childhood memories were shared and lots of new memories were made.


They also follow a WFPB lifestyle also, so cooking (on the days we were at home) was easy. Eating out was a tad more challenging. But we made it through it all without gaining weight. But now back on track as I still have weight to lose.


And, right in the middle of our adventures, I decided that my life wasn't full enough! LOL. I fell in love with Color Street Nails and decided to become an Independent Stylist!! I am loving it!! It keeps me busy, and I am being challenged to learn new things at my age.

What is Color Street? I just love Color Street nails.
I am blown away each time I apply Color Street nails because it is just kind of hard to believe that they are really that easy to apply. No more waiting for your nails to dry, only to have them smudge on the very first thing your finger happens to bump into. And even though I loved the gal that did my nails, now there is no more waiting at nail salons while you wait to spend way more money than you probably want to be spending on your finger nails.


Color Street nails are incredibly affordable, which is just another reason why I love them! They range between $11-$14 and they always have a $3 flat rate shipping. There are even buy 1 get 1 free deals on the french manicure sets and buy 3 get 1 free on all of the other sets, which include the solid colors, the nail art designs, and the glitter.


Check out my website at VivaLaDivaNails and please let me know if you have any questions. And join me on FACEBOOK where all the cool kids hang out! You'll get to see the new styles and colors first, get helpful hints, take advantage of specials, and have your friends join the party!

In the meantime, maybe I better go do some fall decorating, as summer left without notice and now the chilly, fall days are here!! It's one of my favorite seasons.
