Thanks for the over 50 website that is not a knitting group. We are vibrant, smart, and sexy.

Looked through the Bluemercury web site. I wish there was one in the Tampa Bay area. I love samples and to luxuriate. I would love the giveaway since I am no where near one of their stores.
Thanks

Hi Deb,

Thank you for your encouraging words.

Isn’t it amazing how we’re all connecting this way? I love it. Spread the word about FOF. The site launches in January. Tell all your friends to register. The more women we have on it, the more successful it will be.

Best,
Geri Brin

I am very pleased to find out about your new blog today. It was quite ironic that I had just started reading Barbara’s blog just this very morning, quite by accident. Turns out to be my good fortune as she is quite a talented writer. I look forward to learning more and meeting more talented, inspiring, and incredible woman over 50. It’s certainly been a challenging time of my life thus far.

Wishing you all great success ~ Deb

Hi Susan,

Thank you for your kind words. I didn’t love turning fifty either, but sixty hit me harder. Then I realized I make most 30 year olds look like they’re sitting still.

Enjoy the next decade. It really can be marvelous.

I’m so glad that this is taking off. But must confess why I’ve not written something (& I’m a writer & former reporter/editor). You’ve made me face how upset I am to have turned 50 (2 years ago). It’s just so many things; some unique to me, others shared with others.

Still thinking on it.

Meanwhile, I read & follow anonymously. People looking at my profile, especially those who know me, will shriek “What? She’s over 40? She’s 53!” I can hear it now. Now off to swim, think about it, feel guilty about it, & keep on with my low-key campaign against using the word ‘cougar’ for anything but the actual cat.

ciao

I’m not surprised that Barbara is being recognized and found out by those who appreciate good aesthetics and design. We’ve had had the benefit of her incredible depth of style and branding expertise at SOCIALtality sharing the same physical space in Newburyport.

Barbara understands that good blogging requires deep thought, research, good visuals, and a personal connection to the topic of discussion. This comes naturally to her and I’m thrilled to see that I’m not along in my appreciation of her!
