Repeating what I wrote in my "CHM Biz News Blog." (Note the link to this blog in the sidebar here)...
My "For Women Old Enough to Know Better", a.k.a. grannygear, store, will be closing by August.
However, this "For Women Old Enough..." store is still open as I speak, and with a Junior Jersey Blow-Out Clearance Farewell and Closing Sale, at that.
I have marked my Junior Jersey prices way down throughout the "For Women Old Enough..." store. Add my mark-down to CafePress's Junior Jersey mark-down starting today, and you've got lots of savings. Take advantage - after all, school and Fall are coming before you know it. Get your nifty cheap Jerseys now.
Back to the "For Women Old Enough..." store... This CafePress Premium Store originated when CafePress offered me a free six-months deal for me to upgrade my Basic Store (a free store, but with limited options) to a Premium Store. I took up CafePress's offer, even though I was already busy with my first and original CafePress Premium Store, Music Stuff & More. "For Women Old Enough..." store did well those first six free months, so I kept it. It has always more than paid its way, still does, but I like the idea of consolidation now - it's easier, more convenient, simpler, for me and, I believe, for you customers. Oh, and there'll be one less store to make payments on...
You will now find your favorite graphics and merchandise from "For Women Old Enough..." store @ my Music Stuff & More store. (As you may have noticed, many of these graphics and merch have been there already.) Look in the "& More" area for your favorite non-musical - also women-oriented - graphics. I'm in the process of "revealing" them soon, after I get them all tidy and ready-for-primetime.
So, "For Women Old Enough..." is open now as I write, with great deals on Junior Jerseys throughout the store, but will no longer be open in August. I haven't figured out yet what to do with this "For Women Old Enough...", a.k.a. Groovy Ladies, Blog. It will remain open and running until I can figure out what to do with it, a decision which will be made sometime before long... Input regarding this blog is very welcome!
Please visit - and enjoy the extra Junior Jersey savings - @ "For Women Old Enough..." store.
And, Music Stuff & More store.
And, my brand-new www.zazzle.com/chmayer, which is Music Stuff & More @ Zazzle.
Please note that I am newly on Facebook. Feel free to send me a Message or give me a Facebook Poke. You'll find me under my real name. And, both my CafePress store and my new Zazzle store can be found on my Facebook Profile.
Take care. Keep cool.

Reversing Alzheimer's memory loss may be possible
Reversing Alzheimer's memory loss may be possible - Yahoo! News (Reuters)
It's good to hear such positive and hopeful news about Alzheimer's Disease.
This article makes me wonder yet again about something I've long suspected - that Alzheimer's patients frequently get worse, or at least deteriorate at a faster rate, when they are "put away" into nursing homes. ("Warehousing" some have called it.)
This could be from lack of stimulation. A lack of mental exercise - literally!
Also, being home alone in that easy chair in front of the TV too much would have a similar effect it would seem.
It's becoming more and more obvious to me that throughout our lives we need to continue to work our minds, as well as work our bodies.

Woman crashes car into Huntington Beach store
Article - News - Woman crashes car into Huntington Beach store (Orange County Register)
This is an old lady who is not acting like a groovy lady.
She drives a better car than I (2006 silver Accord), however, mine (2000 not-silver Accord) is in better shape right now, since mine has not been driven through the front of a drugstore.
The good news is no one was hurt - the driver's airbag wasn't even activated.
Unfortunately, this is yet another in a long, too-long, string of "pedal-confusion" accidents caused by elderly drivers.
I do think the time has likely come for drivers to be more rigorously tested, say, upon their 75th birthday. Illinois already does this, I think all states should.

Well, good for her!
The story of this woman (see above) certainly shows that it is never too late to complete a degree.
Yet another groovy lady to add the the string of them in the news lately.
P.S.: Did you hear that the NYC dirtbag who beat up the 101-year-old lady (as she was on her way to church), stealing $31 from her, has been arrested? On drug charges, not surprisingly. Real tough guy - beats up the extreme elderly, then rides off with his take on a stolen little girl's pink bike. Loser...
These two tough NYC women this guy attacked that day are also groovy ladies in my book. They even fought back. Walker as weapon?

Grandma makes emergency landing in field
Grandma makes emergency landing in field - Yahoo! News (AP)
I love stories like this. From the article...
Fits in with the recent story posted here re the 102-year-old golfer who hit a hole-in-one.
Good for both of them!
(Makes me feel lazy and inadequate somehow...)

She [the forementioned grandma] said she flies a couple of times a week and plans to fly again. But she worried about what her children would say now.
