No one is more surprise than I am to find myself back in the classroom again, after having retired from the public school system in 2010.  Our pre-planning days started last Thursday, and students will arrive on Tuesday.  I’m teaching four classes–Grades 5,6, 7, and 8 Math–at St. Peter Catholic School in DeLand, Florida.   I’m actually excited about it.  Strange for a woman who is about to turn 60 in 9 days!

My daughter, Kelly, bakes this recipe, and it’s absolutely scrumptious!  It’s also gluten-free!

I loved this article by Dr. Mark Hyman!  And he’s absolutely right when it comes to maintaining a vibrant energy level:  If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.  What’s so wonderful about this article is that Dr. Hyman makes it sound simple to plan for optimal energy…and it is!

We shared it on this website before: Bisphosphonate drugs that are advertised to help your bones actually harm your bones!

In today’s article from SaveOurBones.com, Vivian Goldschmidt, MA,  says, “All of this confirms that if you’ve never taken osteoporosis drugs (or if you’ve ditched them), you can be proud of yourself, because you’ve made the right decision. If you’re still not sure about stopping the osteoporosis drugs, rest assured that more and more negative information on those drugs will continue to come out over time.”

Her timely article gives the details.  Here’s the link:  http://saveourbones.com/outrageous-yet-another-popular-osteoporosis-drug-stops-new-bone-formation/
