I'm a baby boomer and guess you could say I still have a bit of the hippy chick in me.

Grew up watching Ed Sullivan, Soul Train, American Bandstand, Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits.

Music ran from Motown to all the Beatles years, David Bowie, The Police, Van Morrison, Joanie Mitchell....to current day from Sade to Adele.

The styles of the day ran from crop tops and bell bottoms to maxi dresses and floppy hats, go go boots, ratted hair sprayed hair and heavy eyeliner to the most torn up jeans you could find, long straight hair and peace signs.

I loved the times....and still have my signature style, but these days I don't have to wear a tunic to every event, I'm starting to get my sexy back on!

Peace & Love!

Another baby boomer, 1948.

Grew up in the Bay Area, Mickey Mouse Club, Bonanza, Ed Sullivan.

Music was definitely the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Jefferson Airplane and all the San Francisco sound. Lived in the Haight and Big Sur, then settled down, still in the Bay Area.

Happily retired at 55 when my husband and I took off for 5 years in a motor home. Loved New Mexico, Utah, the whole southwest.

Now back in the Bay Area, readying the house for sale and readying my body for the remainder of my great life with surgery scheduled for November 21.

Looking forward to going on the road again as a healthier person, able to do so many things I couldn't last time.

That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

Kate

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
