AT OUR AGE: Kick butt WOMEN AUTHORS I am always thrilled when I find women who are bucking the system in their 60’s and older. I feel this way because two women, Rosalind Severin McClean and Patt O’Neil are very different writers. Yet they are women of a certain age in their 60’s and seventies. They have chosen the literary paths to share tales, poetry, idea. In turn they show the world that us seniors still have a lot to offer. Ms. McClean has four titles of note: OCEANS of THOUGHTS Book one, Two and Three. Her latest publicatio, Book Four, is a charming and adventurous children’s book: The Little Pianist. The illustrations are colorful, eye-catching and will keep the attention of toddlers to young readers. Perfect holiday gift and the family can help read along to the young children . At first glance, one would think that Patt O’Neil's genre is Westerns. Not so. She has a natural talent for story telling. Taking us to places as varied as Venice and Cornwall, readers get a flavor of intrigues and mystery. Her two recent works are collections of short stories: TWO SIDES of the SAME COIN: In-between stories of SHERLOCK HOLMES and John WATSON. Two Sides of the Same Coin: In-between stories of Sherlock Holmes and John H. Watson: O'Neil, P. A.: 9798859789276: Amazon.com: Books https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJLLK862 TALES OF THE SOUTHWEST is set in an epic genre from the 1880’s to present day. Readers will taste the difference between water starved deserts, steep canyons unforgiving heat and as Patt O’Neil told me, people share the traits of moving through challenges, issues and problems until they all resolve in their best manner. Such is the storyteller Patt O’Neil taking us into the depths of imagination, strife and history Tales of the Southwest - Kindle edition by Green, John Franklin, O'Neil, P.A., Pyles, James, Balcom, Gabriella, Crowley, Jay, Hartshorn, Edward C..

HOW TO BUILD A STRONG COMMUNITY: Why build a neighborhood community: 1.Learn History form others - build diversity, 2.Listen to true LIFE LESSONS: 3.GAIN SUPPORT FROM OTHERS Learning history from others can be eye opening. We are facing book banning, news coverage that manipulates us.. however… history happened to people who can tell you what they witnessed. They can also tell you their experiences. No alternative facts either.. For instance: The incredible pilot Captain Chesley, (Sully) who landed the Airbus A320on the Hudson River. I lived in NY when this happened. In 1965 When the former John Lewis, famous civil rights leader, marched across the Bridge to Montgomery for Voting Rights. When you build a diverse community- you can hear first hand these amazing events from people who were there. Listening to true life lessons.. have you ever listened to immigrants or the elderly tell their stories of how they came to America to create a better Life? Where I used to live in Croton on Hudson, IMMIGRANTS built the Croton Reservoir (ITALIANS mostly). That Croton Reservoir supplies fresh water to New York City.. Or How the MIKATO INN was built for the silent film stars from NYC by the Japanese. This was built by the Japanese and the silent film stars would come there to perform and vacation. ( I lived in this “now renovated into apartments” Mikado inn.. Gain Support from your neighbors. It’s important to get to know your neighbors. For instance, I bike everywhere now, throughout my neighborhood to shop, work. Three of my neighbors are always telling me they will gladly give me a RIDE when it is bad weather or whenever I want a lift. More importantly, let’s just check in with each other! Captain Chesley.

Lessons from the Monarch Butterfly Recently I learned in an accidental “experiment”, how to increase the birth and release of Monarchs by twenty times the usual low number. I have a Monarch butterfly garden at our GULFPORT COMMUNITY GARDEN for three years. The "birth rate" has only been a few butterfies. Amazingly, though, here are two lessons that you can glean from this incident with a new volunteer fellow gardener: First: Don’t let anyone tell you that you are WRONG especially when they first meet you! Trust in your OWN RESEARCH AND EXPERTS. Second: When working with MOTHER NATURE’S CREATIONS, if you DISCOVER a better way to IMPROVE the lives and habitat of an endangered species, SHARE your discovery with others… Listen to the podcast for the backstory.

AT OUR AGE: disrupting the pharmaceutical “Shockingly, in the USA, it’s not unusual for disadvantaged populations to suffer from rampant outbreaks of hookworm. Normally the drug prescribed for hookworm, Albendazole, can cost as much as $500 per course, making the drug out of reach for many in need. So we started off by donating more than 10,000 tablets of Albendazole to cure parasitic infections in the most affected areas of the southern US. Our goal is to dramatically reduce the cost of drugs like Albendazole, but we also think that it is just as important to introduce transparency to the pricing of drugs so patients know they are getting a fair price.Our cost for Albendazole is $26.08 per course. We mark that price up by 15% so we can continue to run the company and invest in disrupting the pricing of as many drugs as we possibly can.That makes the base price of the drug $30. Then we add on the actual cost, $5.00, that our pharmacy partners charge us to prepare and provide your prescription to you. https://v2.costplusdrugs.com/mission/ GUIDANCE Mark Cuban Cost plus company CREATE ACCOUNT HERE https://v2.costplusdrugs.com/mission/ ADVENTURE ADVENTURE AXS TV is a leading television, streaming, digital, and social music and entertainment brand owned and operated by Anthem Sports & Entertainment, Inc https://axs.tv/ DISCOVER ALYSSA'S COOKIES: Our goal was to create a cookie that was different from any store bought cookies or bars that are mostly dry and loaded with unwanted ingredients https://alyssascookies.com/ MY FAVORITE THINGS My online Fear of Public speaking Course Sample class and book a class here Get Rid of Enemy Words, those dreaded FILLER WORDS https://bit.ly/3ZB2muG https://calendly.com/vahail1956/30min valerie@allinourminds.com
Have you ever experienced an UNEXPECTED ACT OF KINDNESS? Most of us have .. however.. I want us to think about acts of kindness in our businesses. Let’s consider the possibility of choosing a business because we witnessed an unexpected act of kindness from a potential business. For example, the Tax Expert whom I am now working with got me interested in choosing her because I witnessed three KIND ACTS during our networking meeting. Then as we continued to become familiar with each other, she offered services that showed empathy in my Capital Gains Tax Situation: I saw that Sheree White interacted with others in our networking group with focused listening and attention to what each member expressed, 2) She offered me flexible payment plans without pain to her or my cash flow, 3) She showed empathy and understanding of my anxiety and fear of owing the IRS so much money. 4) She reassured me that the situation can be rectified.

It’s natural to be frightened by me. Don’t stay frightened however Find a neighbor or nearby friend to relieve the fear Play cards or a game to take your mind off of my powerful rain and wind Don’t weather my storm by yourself. Stay in touch with someone in close proximity “But when you’re consumed with your own wants and needs, you lose touch with others who are involved in the uncertainty equation. This kind of self-centeredness is the opposite of what now is calling for. Try to redirect your attention—get outside yourself—and be mindful of other people’s needs.” Price Pritchett, Ph.D HACKING UNCERTAINTY www.pritchettllp.net Kundalini yoga- K Yoga feel your abundance- this is a cool yoga class for ABUNDANCE.. you must have an orange!! https://youtu.be/jRegtSKAZDI?si=mbASBNtFRB8fLBO0 WINE: - GLENELLY Congratulations to a ninety nine years of age chatelaine for writing “My Journey with Wine” by May de Lencquesaing My Journey with Wine tells the exceptional story of a woman whose destiny was to lead her from a life in a chateau to a garrison in the Midwest, from Bordeaux to Beijing, from the wine estates of Médoc to the Cape vineyards of South Africa.
