IS THERE AN ALTERNATIVE TO FIERCE 50?
Monday, 21 May 2018
WHAT FIERCE 50 IS ALL ABOUT
The Fierce 50 Campaign is the brainchild of Catherine McCormick and the intention "is to put a new, fresh frame and perspective around midlife and beyond. We feel that midlife is a powerful time in a woman's life and we are more vibrant than ever before."
Let me just say here and now that I totally agree with what is outlined as the intention of the group. I think Midlife women are becoming more visible and Midlife bloggers are getting noticed more these days - which is a wonderful thing. We're not invisible and we're not fading into the background like the generations before us.
WOW! I'VE REACHED HALF A MILLION VIEWS!
Thursday, 17 May 2018
WHO'D HAVE THOUGHT?
18 months ago I wrote a post celebrating the fact that I had reached 250,000 views. It seemed like an impossible number to me at the time. For someone who thought they'd be lucky if they had 50 views, I was staggered to see that I'd reached quarter of a million! I know that some bloggers get this number of views every month (that blows me away) but I was stunned to have reached that number in total - and I must admit to a little Macarena dance to honour the occasion!Fast forward to now and I've just hit the half million mark! That is beyond amazing to me because.... "who'd have thought?!" I'm a Midlife woman writing about whatever catches my fancy and people (not just my mother!) have come to read my stuff LOTS of times. I'm not sure who all those people are, but I am gobsmacked and chuffed and delighted all rolled into one little happy parcel.

GUEST POST - TRANSITIONING INTO MOTHERHOOD
Monday, 14 May 2018
INTRO
It was Mothers Day in Australia yesterday, and I thought this was a perfect opportunity to ask my lovely daughter-in-law, Hannah, if she'd like to write a guest post for me. She graciously accepted and is sharing about transitioning into motherhood (she is the mother of our delightful grandbaby Sophia and has another baby on the way). It's a reminder for us all of those early days of being a Mum - and how we learnt to adjust. So, without further ado - let me introduce you to Hannah. (BTW Hannah has also just started her own blog called Woman on the Way - perhaps you could pop over afterwards and say Hi!)WHAT TO SAY TO A FRIEND WHO BLOGS

WHEN NOBODY UNDERSTANDS
Do you notice that when you tell people you know in real life that you blog, they tend to look at you quizzically and not really know how to respond? How many times have you mentioned blogging and all you get back is......*crickets*? All your enthusiasm just dries up on the spot and the conversations gets steered away onto more generic topics.MIDLIFE SHARE THE LOVE LINK PARTY #15

A TO Z REFLECTIONS AND FAREWELL
Monday, 7 May 2018
IT'S A WRAP!
Well, it's hard to believe that the A to Z Challenge is now a thing of the past. For four weeks (minus three Sundays) I was immersed in blogs from all over the world - and more themes than I could imagine! I've learned about travel, other countries, sailing, family history, sewing, thriving, daily life, self-improvement, hobbies, podcasts, poetry, music, spirituality, philosophy, and so much more.I reconnected with bloggers I've met from previous years and met lots of new friends. I've learned new stuff, commented on blogs until my fingertips went numb, and still managed to get through my normal daily activities - although I think my Fitbit was buzzing me more than normal to tell me to get up and move before my butt was as numb as my fingertips!
