Top 100 Women’s Health Blogs
August 19, 2008
Health and time … what woman doesn’t relate? These are two of the biggest concerns and interests in the lives of so many women. What if someone could hand you a list of terrific sites about every aspect of health and well-being over 40? It would save you hours and bring something greatly valuable to your life.
Kelly emailed recently to tell me that AGT had been included in Nursing School Search’s list of Top 100 Women’s Health Blogs. I’m sincerely honored.
I am also grateful to have that list because it has done the legwork for all of us. I’ve spent a lot of time at Google Blog Search and other blog directories looking for a list like that one, but been discouraged by the sheer number of results and not finding sites that I felt were written with me in mind.
This list is compiled precisely for women over 40. The topics include nutrition with 11 great blogs, exercise with 10, as well as physical and mental well-being, blogs discussing infertility, pregnancy, and child-rearing, and just being fabulous over 40.
On behalf of all of us, thank you, Kelly!

This winter, she’s been buried in snow. Does every Canadian feel this way?

March 6, 2008
I enjoy reading Oprah when I’m in a waiting room but I seldom buy it. I don’t often connect with the topics. Dr. Phil, Suze Orman, retail items I can’t afford, US politics, solutions to problems I don’t have, celebrities I don’t care much about,… But in this issue, I found tons to interest me.
I bought the magazine for one article. “Shift Happens tells of the TED prize. $100,000 and the help to realize a dream are given to 3 people who must propose a world-changing wish.
WHAT THE HECK IS QUINOA?
March 2, 2008
You’ve seen it on the Superfoods lists, but just how strange and complicated will it be to learn to use it? Is it super enough to bother learning to use it?
It is as tricky as rice, cooks faster, and is great. You know I would never exaggerate how easy something is, since one of my driving forces is to spend the least possible time dealing with food. Do you know that quinoa comes closer than any food, vegetable or animal, in supplying all the necessary nutrients for life?

Day of Purification sounds somewhat fanatical. The title could equally well be Day Of Clearing-Out-Your-Head. Really, these are just updates from my life. I’m having a mental health day today to celebrate being alone in my home. That probably hasn’t happened since 2002.
1. The day began with a truly challenging workout. Mindy Mylrea [...]
