There is a new website called back2yourself.com that was designed to assist back pain sufferers.  The website has free back exercises to help with back pain, and offers an online program to help ease back pain.

I am constantly reading, and hearing, about how so many high fiber foods are good for you. My doctor has, on occassion, told me that I need to increase my fiber intake and given me a list of foods to eat (and avoid.) When I look at it, I see that I am already pretty much following that diet; the only change is to switch to 100% whole wheat bread. When I do that, I get horrible stomach pains. So how can that possibly be good for you?

Dear Aunt Winnie has decided that it is finally time to retire from her nursing job.  She has worked as a nurse in Cheshire for the past forty years!  Now THAT is dedication!  She has been nervous and excited about the prospect of staying home and just taking care of herself, her garden, and her pets.  What she is nervous about, is whether or not she has done enough Financial Planning to see herself through her retirement years.

I’ve been trying to help her out as best as I can to figure out if she can really afford to retire, and that is difficult to do long distance.  I found the Xentum Blog which is designed to help people keep up to date with industry issues, which will help keep an eye on her investments, but I advised her that it would be a really good idea if she went to see some Financial Advisors in Cheshire with all of her records and information.  I’m sure that they have their fingers on the pulse of the economy much better than I do!  Especially in this day and age, it is vital to get the best financial advice possible when it comes to planning a pension and getting investment advice.  I don’t know very many people that want to have to work until they die!

My hubby and I enjoy watching the beautiful white tailed deer that come into our yard every day.  They are so graceful, and so gentle looking.  They remind me of the Bambi movie.  I have to laugh when I go onto Youtube and see videos of deer attacking hunters!  The deer can put up a fight when they are cornered!  Anyway, the deer have been munching on our hostas and spireas.  This has upset my hubby quite a bit!  I was talking about that to one of my new Red Hatter friends and she told me that she was told many years ago that planting marigolds in your garden will repel deer.  She said she has done it ever since and hasn’t had a problem with them since!  I’ll have to tell my hubby to go buy some marigolds!
