Mother’s Day Giveaway

“If you just sit down and be quiet, no one will know how stupid you are”. Yes, that was one of my mother’s sayings. Another one was “slow as pond water”. These and other sayings seem to always come to mind at different times in my life. There are many others that she, my aunts, neighbors, women of the church and others would say. Some I can’t put in print. For our Mother’s Day Giveaway we are asking you to tell us one of the sayings your mother, grandmother, aunt or whoever you consider to be your mother figure in your life said. It’s as simple as that. You can win a beautiful statement necklace donated by Kendra Scott jewelry. It is an amazing piece that you will love–it is the beautiful piece below. Remember “thisisyourbestyear”, and all you need to do to win this beautiful Kendra Scott “statement” necklace is to post a saying that your mother and/or mother figure always said in the comment section of this post. This beautiful piece can be yours to gift to someone or maybe to yourself. The winner will be chosen on Monday, May 2. Good Luck! *You can see more beautiful Kendra,...

Welcome to This is Your Best Year!!!

Welcome to “thisisyourbestyear”! You and I are on this journey together. Together and collectively, we will give suggestions on living life to the fullest. This is a blog for women who thought that when they reached this age, life was over. This is for all of those women who thought their mothers were old at this age–well they may have been, but that’s not the case anymore. We will discuss everything from health, beauty, faith, life, children, grandchildren, exercise, careers, retirement, starting all over again in love and/or career. We will talk about learning the word no, taking time to be who we are. With this blog we will have fun, we will talk fashion, food, travel and all kinds of products–in other words, we’re going to talk about us. You can always email us at thisisyourbestyear@gmail.com and see all the things we are doing by visiting us at thisisyourbestyear on these social media sites–Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr and YouTube. We are also on Twitter at: thisisyourbestyear@mariciajohns. Let’s get excited ladies, and stay tuned. Remember–“THIS IS YOUR BEST YEAR”!
