It has been a wonderful year, talking and discussing so many different topics with you the readers. Your comments have been funny, informative, creative and given me ideas of other topics. “thisisyourbestyear” is about us and our journey.
Our top 5 posts of 2015 are as varied as you the readers, but in each one of them there is a strong woman of a certain age somewhere. Here’s the list.

We may be women of a certain age, but we are not the same. We do not fit a particular mold. Mrs. Inda Lou Lambert Schell did not let the death of her husband deter her, she decided to travel just like they had planned. She went on with her life.
