Jawjaw, you didn't share if you passed or failed belly dancing...well?

This is a great topic.

Speaking of fans...check BWS home page. Someone invented a bed fan for women at midlife. No lie. There's an advertisement for it right here at BWS.

You could have soemone do midlife coaching too.

I never took it, although quite honestly (go ahead and laugh) I wouldn't mind taking the lessons...no joke. And by the way, that cake decorating teach had NO sense of humor. How the heck was I suppose to know that stuff would squirt that far?

Theres one thing I didn't see mentioned here that we have all complained about that there are not any or not enough of stores with Boomer Fashions...We need a boutique filled with stylish/ young looking Boomer clothing, like say semi-sleeveless summer wear with maybe fringe the camouflages the flaps some get. Well you know what I mean and yet other designs that help hide the belly/hips without looking matronly or frumpy etc. Oh and you might offer health screening once a year for menopause related illness's. The Health professionals will usually be happy to oblige...Sounds exciting chickadee....

Forget the fans, I have one of those battery operated gadgets shaped like...you guessed it ..
an elephant (my brother has a sense of humor)
You can sell a sprinker on a lovely chain, it can turn from warm mist to instant cool mist!!
oh the bed would get wet? so......... How about thongs that fit! so we can eliminate those size 9 underwear that reveal panty lines. And a nail salon, a massage area, and of course offer the
"zip the hair off your lip" too! Just kidding,
its a great idea and you have so many ladies giving you some terrific advice!! What to name the store??????? hmmmmmmmm....

I am home for lunch and just popped in to check out your posts. Wow! What great ideas everyone. Please keep brainstorming with me. And a name...yes a good name.
Last night I woke up thinking about this and had 2 great ideas...but they fail me now. Shoulda written them down. Memory Pads...thats what "I" need. Thank you for taking an interest in this. I really appreciate it.Back at ya later today.
Luv,

I was going to suggest making it pet friendly but then, if you had a little cafe with pastries and coffee, you couldn't welcome pets.

I think this idea is growing and growing and it's exciting. I was going to say you could call it "FLASH" but truthfully, it's not that funny. Something with Boomer Women in the title? Boomer Haven.

I love soft, fuzzy socks so that could be something and also, comfy slippers. They have so many cute ones now.

Wow. This has taken on a life of it's own.

P.S. JJ, I've never known anyone who failed a cake decorating class. That's a first. I took one years ago (for my DQ) and my instructor didn't have a sense of humor either. I think she took it much more seriously than I did.

I had a thought for a name...CHICK-A-DEALS

good for selling any kind of merchandise, food, beauty products etc.

Great ideas, Ladies!

Chick,
When you go to pick out a name, use it for a week or so before you decide on it permanently. Say it out loud, use it in every kind of "marketing" ploy you can think of. Does it ring a bell? Stay with you? Remind you of anything else? Sound offensive in any way? Can it be misconstrued? Easy to spell? Say? Is it sassy? Is it old-fashioned? How would it look on a biz card? A web page? Wear it out, verbally, and on paper... then see how you feel about it in a week. Stll love it? If so, you probably have a winner.

I think you should have a name that rolls off the tongue and that WOMEN love to tell their girlfriends that is where they're going that day...like for instance (bear with me a sec, k?)

Boomer #1: Hey girlfriend, wanna go to the mall today?

Boomer #2: No can do, I'm headed over to ______

Boomer #1: Oh great! Can I go? I love to go there. I feel like I'm in somebody's living room and Chick has the greatest ______...don't you think?

And the name is?
