In the United States, we are still awaiting the day when we can celebrate the election of a woman to the presidency, but for the country of Liberia, the wait is over. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, a 67 year-old, Harvard educated economist, is the first female to be elected president in the history of Liberia.  For her, and much of the rest of Liberia's female population, the change to female leadership was long overdue.  Read more >

You try to look at the bright side at mid-life, to find the silver lining.  Okay, you say, so I occasionally sweat profusely for no apparent reason, I'm moodier than ever and I can't seem to remember s _ _ _ , but at least I don't have to worry about those damned condoms anymore!   Get out the Kama Sutra and squeeze into some lingerie, it's party time!  Heck,  menopause hasn't given you much to smile about besides worry free sex, so make the most of it, right?  Sexual freedom at last!  No chance of getting pregnant, no worries?   Read more >

Mid-life comes with so many wonderful surprises:  irregular periods, hot-flashes,  mood swings and, oh yes let's not forget, that gradually increasing waistline. We write it off as just another side-effect of changing hormone levels and, as we struggle to zip up our jeans, we shake our heads and sigh.  It's just what we women have to put up with . .  . or is it?  Read more >

Right now, the majority of Americans are worried.  Will I still have a job next month?  Will I be able to afford health care next year?  How will I ever be able to send my kids to college?  What chances do I have of ever retiring?  Can I make my mortgage payment?  Read more >

About Me: 

Hi everybody,

I'm relatively new to the blogging world.  My blog, www.betweenusgirls.info has been up and running from January 2008.  I originally intended it to be for women, mid-life women in particular, but it turns out that many of my posts have been helpful to women of varying ages and men as well.

I blog on a variety of topics including health, personal growth and development, spirituality and occassionally parenting and other things.

I would love to connect with other women bloggers, particularly, but not limited solely to, mid-life women and people who are blogging about similar topics.

I'd love to link up with some blogs that might be interesting to me and my readers and would love to be part of a small community of women bloggers who help each other out in our efforts to develop and market our blogs.  I'm hoping to find such a group here.  If you find me before I find you, say hello!
