Lazy, Hazy, Reading Days of Summer
Hard to believe it is mid August already! Have you taken some time to rest and relax and enjoy the summer days? What’s been your favourite thing to do this summer? Where have you been? Did you take a vacation? Let us know in the comment section – we’d love to see your pictures and post a few holiday snaps for everyone to see. You can email Lesley, Steph or Dorothy with your pics!
In the meantime, if you are looking for a few summer reading ideas, here’s a few that that we thought our community might be interested in checking out.
The Globe and Mail recently published an opinion piece called How to Save Yourself From the Abyss . Writer Mitch Landell writes that sometimes there is nothing we can do about our circumstances, but there are active things we can do ourselves to improve how we feel. If you are feeling a bit down, take a read and tell us what you think.
And then there’s that tricky issue about dating as a widow/widower. Here’s one take on it from the website Sixty and Me. The article is Are We Too Old For Boyfriends in Our Sixties? What do you think, do you agree or disagree?
Another favourite is the website One Fit Widow by author Michelle Steinke-Baumgard. Michelle recently wrote a great article called 14 Ways To Get Lucky in Life. Her premise is similar to our first article – life is what you make it – but it has a few different ideas in it that you might find interesting.
And on a completely different note, if you need a bit of a summer giggle, check out British comedian Michael McIntyre’s take on the challenges of losing weight.
