Rightsize today to create your best life tomorrow : a motivational guide for those seeking their ideal home later in life / by Jameson, Marni,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Moving is no fun. Neither is getting rid of stuff. And both jobs get harder as we get older. So, when those over a certain age - say, in the last third of life - are looking to downsize and move all at the same time, many will conclude, "I'll just stay put, thank you very much." It's not just the acquired possessions holding them back, but also the intangibles. Their memories, their family history, their identities are all in jeopardy, they think. And yet, that reluctance to lighten up, let go, and move on is commonly all that stands between them and a better life. Rightsize Today to Create Your Best Life Tomorrow will help this group of root-bound home dwellers cross the bridge between stuck in the past and a lighter, better future. It will encourage them to embrace the fact that now, when they're no longer tethered to a school system or to a job, they need to be near, is their chance to live where they want to live. Every section contains checklists: some soul-searching (should you or shouldn't you move?), some practical (what every kitchen must have), and some logistical (where's your happy place?), to help readers on their journey. Included are enlightening profiles of those who proactively changed their housing in the last third of their life. Whether they moved to a smaller place, remodeled their existing home, or even moved to a larger home, which one third do; whether they moved to a new city, to a senior community, or to a new home in the same neighborhood, they all reimagined their lives, re-evaluated their belongings and made a move toward a better and possibly their best life yet. To live your best life now requires an honest appraisal of who you are and who you're becoming, where you are in your life and where you're going or want to go. This book is designed to help those who are stuck explore what's holding them back, and provide them with the insights, experiences, and courage to move forward"--

The lady on Esplanade / by White, Karen(Karen S.),author.;
"Nola Trenholm's attempt at starting her new life in New Orleans is disrupted when the ghosts and the men from her past return, in the third novel of the Royal Street series by New York Times bestselling author Karen White. Nola Trenholm was ready to move on from ghosts. She thought she finally had, and just got back to work on the restoration of her home. Even though that included the unsolicited help of Beau Ryan, licensed contractor and unwelcome reminder of her past. He also happened to be the psychic who risked his life to help rid her house of the ghosts. But that's all he was-he had a girlfriend, and Nola was definitely not interested in him. On the night of the dinner party to celebrate Nola saving Beau, she learned that another man from her past had recently moved to New Orleans: Cooper Ravenel, her high school crush and first heartbreak, and the man who helped Nola save Beau that night. Now that he was settling in, she planned to show him the house on Esplanade. Despite his return, everything else seemed to be falling into place, which may be why only Nola and Beau noticed the flickering lights followed by a women's wet footprints during dinner. That could only mean one thing: Beau's late mother still had unfinished business. And she needed her son's help ... "--

The word is murder : a novel / by Horowitz, Anthony,1955-author.;
"A woman crosses a London street. It is just after 11am on a bright spring morning, and she is going into a funeral parlor to plan her own service. Six hours later the woman is dead, strangled with a crimson curtain cord in her own home. Enter disgraced police detective Daniel Hawthorne, a brilliant, eccentric man as quick with an insult as he is to crack a case. And Hawthorne has a partner, the celebrated novelist Anthony Horowitz, curious about the case and looking for new material. As brusque, impatient, and annoying as Hawthorne can be, Horowitz--a seasoned hand when it comes to crime stories--suspects the detective may be on to something, and is irresistibly drawn into the mystery. But as the case unfolds, Horowitz realizes he's at the center of a story he can't control ... and that his brilliant partner may be hiding dark and mysterious secrets of his own."--Amazon.ca.
