Kudos for sharing your story, Carrie! Most women are really confused and depressed when it comes to this stage and most of us don’t see it coming… It’s a good thing women nowadays have the resources to see them through this difficult stage. I wish you all the best

your blog may help someone else. More women go through stuff like this at different levels then we probably know. Hope you get to the doctor soon. A yearly checkup at 40 and over is a must.Going through this at about the same age(but not due to the pill) hormon levels are probably key .

Thank you girls; I remember all of you.
We sold the store in April of 09 to the chamber of commerce of Whiting. We tried to keep the buyer in Whiting, and we did not want to sell to pawn shop or another dollar store. It became time to get out . We lost the newspaper in 2007, mand with that 500 or more people were not coming in to the store or for that matter into Whiting. Economic times plus the people not coming, to town was the writing on the wall. Whiting has changed, but I thin kn it will come back, but it will take time.
Thank you eveyone, Jay and Jodi

WOW!! What a nice story! This is my dad’s store!! He tried to keep the store going for the last few years, but it just seemed to be one thing after another. I’ll will let my dad know to check this out. What a nice surprise! Did my grandpa make you dust out each and EVERY box of candy too?

Well, using a Rapid Tax RAL is one way to do your taxes. Certainly, it is only useful if you are absolutely desperate to get your return. If you can afford to pay for your tax prep fees out of pocket, though, it makes sense to not give a portion of your refund to Santa Barbara.

Ohhhh!!! I forgot to mention the gate!!!! I may have to edit this post and add that in. That was such a job for me!! There were so many things to write about, but that one just came and went out of my mind when I was completing this.

Thanks for letting me know about the closing. I had no idea? I’m surprised that my parents did not mention it. Do you jnow if Jay is retiring? Remembe when we used to have to put the large metal gate on the front door every night? We used to give you such a hard time about not being able to lift it up! I have so many great memories of Whiting News, it was a great place for a high scholl girl to work. Many of the Boyle family worked there too.
