So how many of you can’t wait for the Olympics every four years? Do any of you try to watch every sport they televise and lose sleep in the process? This year the Olympics had so many women athletes who made history and broke records. We noticed that 55% of the prime time sports coverage during the Olympics were women’s events. We also discuss some of the negative comments which have been made towards athletes and cover a multitude of sports during prime time and those not covered. Anaya and Debbie have enjoyed the Olympics so far and hope all of the athletes fulfill their dreams. Join us as we talk about the ones that touched us.

Aging is something all of us are doing and can relate to. No matter what decade of life you’re in, aging is a natural part of life. Yes, we are aware of the warfare it is waging on our health and bodies at some point, but there are also so many blessings and benefits to growing older.

We are surrounded daily by people that work hard, make an effort, and show kindness and generosity without being asked. Most of the time this goes unrecognized. It’s important to acknowledge hard work and outstanding performance, show people they are valued, and sometimes to simply show gratitude or appreciation.

Join the Busy Ladies as we discuss how the roles of women have changed over the last 100 years. Women of 100 years ago were limited in what they could do. We were not allowed to vote, own our own homes, have our own credit cards or work while pregnant.

Friends may come in and out of your life for a season - we have friends of convenience (work, neighborhood, hobbies) and lives change. Not all friendships last forever, and mourning a friendship that has ended or withered away over time does not necessarily mean either of you were bad friends to each other. What it does mean life takes us on a different routes sometimes and there are more people for us to be connected to in the future.
