Where does it start where does it end!

Having dinner with a gorgeous girlfriend last night. We were reminiscing about our lives. Solving the worlds problems. As you can imagine that will take a lot of time. She turned to me and said, you are amazing look how far you have come. I answered I know sometimes I have to pinch myself to see if I am still here. I thanked her, but then I reflected on a voyage that has been super scarey but super AMAzing 😉. Mentally, physically and financially I have managed to start over again. Don't get me wrong buying a house at 52 was not in the plans at all. However I have done it. Even my scars have nearly completely gone. You know what I don't even see them these days. It's like an eraser. I have mananged to move on to an amazing part of the central coast with the best beaches and people that you have ever met. What a gift 🎁 starting over and in a life that's pretty perfect. My longest friend and bestie of 47 years will accompany me on a voyage this year. Brazil here we come. Let's be honest why not reward yourself for all your hard work. My friend Ann is a treasure friends since Kindy in that time can you imagine how many things we have been through together. Wow near half a century of sharing good things and bad things called the circle of life. What a trip that has been.
Every day is a gift. Today I give thanks I am so happy and content.
#live #laugh #survivor #gift #bestoflife #bestfriends

"Hard nipples" - areola or nipple skin

Someone once wrote"... when i get really cold, or get goosebumbs all over my body, the whole things really scrunch up, like, my entire areola scrunches itself up into a wrinkled little mound. it looks really weird and ugly, and i haven't ever seen other people's breasts do it. what is wrong with my areola/nipples??" The answer: Well nothing is wrong. This is what my areola does too. It's a normal reaction to the coldness or to irritation / stimulation. The little muscles in the areola do a similar goosebump thing as your other skin can do. People often call this phenomenon "hard nipples". Also note that skin on areola has less feeling or sensation to it than other areas of your body. If the areola was very sensitive, then breastfeeding would probably be quite uncomfortable because the baby pulls and tugs it! The nipples are sensitive but the sensitivity changes with hormonal changes, such as occur at mestrual cycle or pregnancy. Also this v...

Kate Jackson Breast Cancer a flash back

THE MOST MOMENTOUS CHANGE IN Kate Jackson's life began early one morning in January 1987, during her fourth season on the hit TV series Scarecrow and Mrs. King. After a phone call informed her that the show's taping was canceled because costar Bruce Boxleitner had the flu, Jackson went back to sleep. When she woke several hours later, "It was out of the blue, but perfectly clear," she recalls. "I sat up in bed and literally said, 'You have to have a mammogram.' " She did, and two days later a biopsy confirmed her vague fears: A minute growth found in her left breast was determined to be malignant. "I was forced to face, squared up, my own mortality," says Jackson. "I had to decide whether I wanted to live or to die. And if you choose life, as I did, it's never the same." For three TV seasons 16 years ago, she was famous as Sabrina Duncan, a girl-next-door gone glamorous and the character critics dubbed the brainiest o...

Once ovulation and menstruation begin, the maturing of the breasts begins with the formation of secretory glands at the end of the milk ducts.

Breast development occurs in five stages: Stage One: In preadolescence, the breasts are flat and only the tip of the nipple is raised.
