“Heart-wrenching. As unflinching as it is beautiful.” – The New York Times

SeniorCare Inc. presents Mimi & Dona, on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 at 7:30 p.m. at the Cape Ann Cinema, 21 Main Street in Gloucester, MA. The film will be followed by a discussion and cocktail hour with light appetizers. This presentation is sponsored by The Residence at Riverbend with additional support from Tufts Health Plan Foundation.

What happens when love runs out of time? For a 92-year-old mother, Mimi, who has cared 64 years for Dona, a daughter who has an intellectual disability, it means facing the inevitable—the likelihood that she will not outlive her daughter and the need to find her daughter a new home.

While the rest of Gloucester Crossing has been full and pretty busy, this space on the end next to Marshalls has been unoccupied for as long as I can remember.

What would you put there if you had the choice?

The Three Phases of Life ~

THE THREE PHASES OF LIFE – By Vishnu Om

#Ayurveda is a preventative system of medicine and health care but also a guide to support you in optimal living.

How we choose to live our lifestyle will determine if we will incur disease or redirect it.

Our lifestyle should be a reflection of our life, and our life should be supported by choices that enliven us versus enslave us.

As we live according to the daily cycle, seasonal cycle, annual cycle, lunar cycle and life cycles, we can recycle the breath over and over again with more joy and less sorrow but ultimately more peace and ease.

Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC encourages you to be the red umbrella when faced with choices. Your health will thank you and so will those around you

Wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

Hope all had a wonderful Christmas Holiday yesterday.  I must have been a good girl with Santa, AKA, Rick getting me a new EOS 7D Mark II camera.  Can not wait to go out and photograph.

Love these slippers that my sister in law wore.

Torrential rain for Christmas dawn, then white out blowing 35 knots out of the north and by 2 PM blue sky and a pleasant breeze from the south blowing the tops off of the waves. Looking north there are a few clouds over Maine.

Still Kills Me. Holiday Bartender.

Posted on by Nichole S.

I posted this last year, but….after a particularly yummy eggnog drink at a friend’s house last night…it came up in conversation and I thought it was worth sharing again.

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Matt Catanzano, of the duo Simply Unemployable, at the Improv Asylum in Boston a few times and I could watch this video of his 100 times….only it makes me super thirsty.

Merry Christmas.
