The answer is almost invariably YES! It really doesn’t matter what your age, your condition, your challenges, or what your problems are. Almost everyone is capable of some kind of exercise. It certainly doesn’t have to be hard core. If you can’t run, then try walking. If you can’t walk, get out with a wheelchair or a walker. Use a freaking cane if you have to! There aren’t many conditions you could have where exercise could not help you. If your initial reaction to my words gives you a sudden urge to argue with me or present some insane scenario where my words would not be true, then I want...…The answer is almost invariably YES!

Crossing the Bar is a phrase used widely by the military and ex-military, more specifically the Royal Navy. It is used to politely announce that a person has died. The term is taken from a poem by Lord Alfred Tennyson as meaning to cross the “sandbar” between the tide or river of life, with its outgoing “flood,” and the ocean that lies beyond death, the “boundless deep,” to which we return. The “Pilot”, obviously, is God. Lord Tennyson wrote the poem after a serious illness while at sea, crossing the Solent from Aldworth to Farringford on the Isle of Wight. It’s...…Crossing the Bar is a phrase used widely by the military and ex-military, more specifically the Royal Navy. It is used to politely announce that a person has died.

There is a silly little game I sometimes play that I call: What Was My Mum Was Doing At My Age? My mum was born in 1939, so at my current age of 56, that would mean that my mum was the same age in 1995. That was the year my mum moved 340 km from Kingston, Ontario to Ancaster, Ontario to be closer to the rest of the family. My two sisters and I lived very near to this small town, so it seemed a great choice. The very next year my husband and I moved to Calgary, Alberta. A total coincidence, I assure you. My mum and step-dad liked to travel, so by moving to Ancaster, they were nearer to...…There is a silly little game I sometimes play that I call: What Was My Mum Was Doing At My Age? My mum was born in 1939, so at my current age of 56, that would mean that my mum was the same age in 1995.
