Sisterhood of the Travelling Shoes

With February over and done, we thought you might be wondering how successful each of the Sisters were in completing their individual challenges. While the Sisterhood is all about female empowerment, Big, Middle and Little Sis also believe that a little bit of healthy competition among sisters is not a bad thing and decided to declare a challenge winner. Unfortunately, Wayne Gretzky was unavailable for comment so the Sisterhood was forced to dig deep and solve the dilemma on their own. Read on to see how this "terrific trio" managed to resolve their quandary in a fair and reasonable manner, and who was ultimately declared the obvious winner.

Big, Middle and Little Sis are all getting up there in age and have recently had some interesting experiences in the health department, as is wont to happen when you are firmly ensconced in the senior citizen category (Well, maybe Little Sis isn't firmly ensconced yet, but she definitely has one foot in). Realizing that they are not unique in this, they decided to share their experiences in the hope of providing guidance and encouragement to those who might find themselves similarly afflicted.

I have known for a while, that because my Grandmother was born in Northern Ireland, I am eligible to apply for Irish citizenship. I have also known that as exciting as that may be, the process appears to be quite rigorous and I have a long list of other adventures to pursue. But I recently decided that it's time to just do it! 2024 will be the year I will wholeheartedly devote myself to the application process. I am committed to this. And so with the full support of the Sisterhood, I begin.....

If you recall, for the month of February Big, Middle and Little Sis each decided that the answer to Wayne Gretzky's question "You want a challenge don't you?" was "yes" and so they each chose something that they want to accomplish over the month. And being the wise women that they are, they know accountability is key when you are trying to make a change so, it seemed that a good way to do this would be to post a progress report for all the world to see. With this in mind, read on to see how the Sisterhood is doing at the halfway point in their quest for glory,…

No, I have not developed a life threatening illness, nor have I turned into a doomsday believer. The end that I am thinking about is an end to my working life. Yes, the time has finally come. After all these years of getting up at the crack of dawn, and working my fingers to the bone, I have started to think about retirement. Yes, you heard it right, I am starting to think about it. I am at the stage in my life where it's time to start thinking about what I want to do for the rest of my life, as I am officially the last one in the…

As we settle into 2024, the Sisterhood thought now might be a good time to answer the famous question posed by hockey icon Wayne Gretzky, "you want a challenge don't you?" So after much soul searching and deciding, as good Canadian hockey fans, they could not say no to Wayne Gretzky, the Sisterhood decided to embark on a 30 day challenge. Well, it's actually a 29 day challenge as we chose February of a leap year to do it, but I don't think Wayne will mind.😂

If you are young, and by young I mean under 70 years, this post probably won't resonate with you. In fact, you will likely find it difficult to get past the title. If you've made it this far, however, I urge you to keep reading because this will inevitably apply to you. The sad truth is we all get older. The happy truth is that often we get wiser and hopefully end up in the "I don't care" stage of life. Allow me to elaborate.
