Headline of the Day...

Greater Wealth Tied to Lower Stroke Risk

Yes, people... "We confirmed that lower wealth, education, and income are associated with increased stroke up to age 65, and wealth is the strongest predictor of stroke among the factors we looked at," noted Dr. Mauricio Avendano.

This is just ONE more reason why I need to win the lotto!!

Leaving on a Jet Plane...

Okay, I know it has been a long time... too long... since I have posted on the blog. I do apologize, particularly to some certain family members who were extremely worried that I would NEVER get over the loss of my beloved Roy Scheider! ;-)

A lot of things were going on in my world... a new job... the thought of turning 40... and just everyday life. And to be honest, I didn't feel like I really had much to say. (Ginger and Claudia... thanks for checking in on me... wondering where the heck I have been!!)

But now... I feel settled in my job (and I am happy with the work I am doing)... turning the big 4-0 wasn't so bad after all... and more importantly, I have actually gone out on a couple of dates... WITH A MAN!!! Yippee!!  
Also, I thought I would share with you my new adventure... my best friend and I are leaving on Saturday for a two-week European River Cruise!! It's to help celebrate (a.k.a. mourn... tee hee) the fact that I have turned 40! We start off in Amsterdam and cruise all the way to Budapest. It should be a wonderful time. And hopefully I will have a lot of great pictures to share with you when I get back!

Well... I just wanted to check in and let you know that I am alive and kicking!! I hope all is well in your world.

I will try to post more regularly when I get back... see you in mid-May!!
