The Happy Cat - Is a plastic surgery nip/tuck right for you? Listen to your body!

You are absolutely right - if we see something we don't like and we have the ability to make a positive change - go for it! I did! It will be in an upcoming article. It's all good!

DIANE MONETTE - Is a plastic surgery nip/tuck right for you? Listen to your body!

I think eyelids that are sagging make me look angry or harsh. I want to get surgery this year. But i am a tad apprehensive since not all surgery turns out as nice as one hopes. I THINK its not fun getting up in the mirror and seeing an angry face because of sagging eyelids. You might not be there yet, so your comment to leave the knife idea, is not necessarily a good one if when you get up in the morning, and don t like your own reflection. People do not usually have this surgery to please others, but to please themselves .

Catharine - Is a plastic surgery nip/tuck right for you? Listen to your body!

beautiful like you are .. perfect as you were made .. leave the knife to those who are afraid that somehow they are 'less' because they aren't pulled, tucked, and made into an image of someone else ...

DIANE MONETTE - Giving Back – Volunteering in Retirement: What is Appropriate Over 50, Over 60?

Well, Congratulations in doing something you like for the benefit of Cats. In Ottawa, the Ottawa Humane society does the work. But many folk, like yourself, come up with their own way to help the animals. Now, Maybe you could suggest the book mark crochet thing to the Ottawa Humane society. I am sure they would sell like crazy!!! I myself do not crochet . I am too busy at this time taking care of my Alzeimer mom, but maybe later i can learn to crochet by having someone teach me. I will see about this this winter season.

DIANE MONETTE - Oh ya, I ended up in the Hospital in Phuket with Dengue!

Oh my goodness Pearly Ann, so sorry to hear about your Dengue experience. A friend of mine in Ottawa lived in Indonesia. While living in Ottawa, friends of hers came to visit from there. They realized that one of the friends had dengue before even hitting land. Here, this person is visiting a cold wintery country, but is coming here with something she really did not expect. ANYWAY, like you said. Just wear lots of Mosquitoe protection. I see you live near me. I live at 3055 richmond road.... the yellow house-0ne block and a half from Bayshore. And you were in Ottawa this summer. I guess you never pass in front of my house, because i did not see you. NEXT time you are in town, please do not hesitate to phone me, DIANE MONETTE...... i was DAISY at Woodroffe high school.... KEEP SMILING AND I know you do. Enjoy YOUR TIME. Love Daisy P.S.
