Welcome

Welcome! We're 3 generations of women who said farewell to sunny Southern California and waved 'hi y'all' to sultry South Carolina. We love helping other women in need. I'm not saying you are needy! But don't you love getting tips from women who know something more than you in specific areas?

My daughter, Jacquie, is a certified nutritionist and I'm learning some easy steps to becoming healthier as the days--and years--go by. She owns and works at Life Wellness Center in Lexington, SC with her husband of 25 years, Dr. Thomas Blake.

My 22-year-old granddaughter, Destiny, is a make-up artist with MAC Cosmetics in Columbia, SC. She is teaching me simple ways to add a little glitter to my life ... and don't we all need some glitter now and then? She loves her Zumba classes and playing with her two labs.

And me? Well, through the years--sixty-eight at this writing--I've gleaned from some marvelous mentors and learned from the hard knocks of life how to fulfill the dreams that God has placed in me. I'm a writer, and I recently published my first novel, Lady and the Sea, based on my life story.

Summertime and the living' is ... easy ... hectic ... crazy ... fun ....

Summer wedding reception 2015
Just checking in to say that the GLITS Gals are alive and well and enjoying the summer.

Destiny is busy with MAC Cosmetics, leading zumba classes at Gold's Gym, and starting up a wonderful business called IsaGenix.  I just started the program on Monday and I already lost four pounds and feel so much more energetic ... that is what this program is supposed to do.  

Jacquie is focusing on her nutrition  passion and is also involved with IsaGenix.  Her and Tom spend a lot of time on the lake fishing and relaxing.  Since Tom bought her a karoake setup, she has hosted summer karaoke parties and they have been a blast!

Rob and I recently returned from a 21-day journey to the flood disaster in Wimberley, Texas.  We bought a vintage motor home and consider it our second home.  We relaxed four days at Dreher Island State Park on Lake Murray and we plan to return to our home away from home.
Destiny's 24th Birthday
We hope you are having a sunny summer.  Don't forget to reach out and help someone.  You never know when you might need a helping hand.



Little acts of kindness which we render to each other in every day life, are like flowers by the wayside to the traveler; they serve to gladden the heart and relieve the tedium of life's journey.

Jacquie talks ... to the Natural Woman in You

Mom's healthy glow since she's started her morning 'smoothie'

Lets begin March Madness with a positive attitude.  Many of us work outside the home.  Our schedules are packed with family activities that can take a lot of energy, so the best way to begin each morning is with a healthy smoothie.  It took Mom months to begin this practice, but once I gave her the NutriBullet for Christmas, she realized how fast and easy it was.

I'll be talking about smoothies in my next blog, so stay tuned.


I'm here to answer questions from exercise to healthy eating, from breaking bad habits to creating good ones.


Tip:  Looking for a natural sleep-inducer? 
Eat a handful of Raw walnuts before bed to boost fiber, essential oils, & tryptophan.  

May March give you Mild days and Mellow nights.


Health and Blessings!
