Bringing Up Baby

Oh Daddy!
Anderson Cooper

Look walking the streets of New York City, it's new Daddy Anderson Cooper stepping out no doubt to get some sustenance for his newly arrived son Wyatt Morgan Cooper.

That's correct Minions for all of you who always thought "Oh Daddy" when you saw Anderson, well now it's not just a euphemism, it's a literal fact!

His first child's name is a tribute to his late parents, Wyatt for his father, Wyatt Emory Cooper who passed when he was ten. Morgan a family name from his mother, Gloria Vanderbilt, who passed June of last year.

Even during a pandemic life keeps happening, and we keep living to the fullest day by day.

Wishing Daddy Anderson and baby Wyatt and all of you the best, seize the day Minions!

Monday Motivation

Zen
Anderson Cooper

This weeks Monday Motivation is brought to you by Anderson Cooper. "Yes" him sitting peacefully poolside is a reminder to us all to take the time for some self care.

What's do I mean by "self care" you say? Tending to ones mental and spiritual well being is as much a part of feeling good as is a hot and sweaty Spin Class or doing a few rounds of boxing on a punching bag. 

One also needs to appreciate the little things in life. The quiet times, to recharge and regroup.

Personally this is something I need to do more of than when I hit the mat in yoga once a week. One of my personal fave things to do is to take a walk and enjoy the moments of the things that I see along the way, whatever those may be.

Also starting the day of with a positive affirmation helps to set the tone for it. You'd be amazed how standing in a Superman pose to kick off your day really affects you.

So bend it like Anderson & Myself today and make your Monday magic!

The Elephant In The Room

Open Wide
Anderson Cooper & Friend

Woke up this morning got myself a bowl of blueberries and some Tejava Tea and started feeling perky. Caffeine and antioxidants will do that to ya.

Perky generally makes me silly, and I guess that makes this a Silly Saturday.

Not that this image of Anderson Cooper and an elephant is necessarily silly, but it certainly has the power to be. It also can evoke a number of other emotions, but most importantly none of them would be negative. There is a lot of that going around these days, I can't imagine why...Not!!!

Well I am onto my next piece of fruit this ayem a banana and then off to spin.

Have a whoop ass Saturday and get silly with it!

Just Because, Anderson Cooper

It's Not Easy Being Green
Anderson Cooper

With the last fling of summer officially over, it's now back to the ole daily routine. Ya know work, making things in your world happen, yeah that.

Sometimes do you ever think to yourself  "I wonder what Anderson Cooper did over Labor Day Weekend?" Sure you do!

Guess what I'm here to give you an answer. He went to a fair in Goshen, Connecticut and was surrounded by aliens, Trump supporters don't freak out, they are of the otherworldly kind. 

Cooper is out numbered! Luckily there was no abduction involved!

GRAMMY-Award Winning Band Delivers Electrifying Live Show As Event's Leading Entertainment; Inspires Hope to End AIDS Epidemic

Inspiration is a theme this week, let's continue it. Shall we?

KC and The Sunshine Band’s mission has always been to inspire happiness through music. With uplifting, upbeat dance hits like “Shake, Shake, Shake (Shake Your Booty), “Get Down Tonight,” “That’s The Way I Like It,” “Boogie Shoes,” and others, it is no wonder they’ve been able to succeed. But on Monday evening at the Elton John AIDS Foundation’s 14thAnnual An Enduring Vision New York Benefit Gala at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City, the GRAMMY® Award-winning group shined their bright light on the crowd for a different reason – to help inspire hope in an end to the worldwide AIDS epidemic. The event was hosted by award-winning CNN anchor Anderson Cooper and featured Ford Foundation President Darren Walker as a special speaker. KC and The Sunshine Band took the stage as the evening’s lead entertainer, performing well-known hits "Shake Your Booty," "Boogie Shoes," I’m Your Boogie Man,” “Give It Up,” "That's The Way (I Like It)" and “Get Down Tonight,” leading celebrity guests and attendees to get out of their seats and dance. Harry Wayne “KC” Casey, the group’s lead singer, who lost a cousin to AIDS in the 90s, as well as many friends, said the disease has touched him deeply and personally. “I am passionate about awareness, prevention and am hopeful for a cure, because it is a disease which is preventable through education. I applaud the great work that Sir Elton John and his foundation has accomplished. The foundation has changed the global face of the disease by reaching out to patients, even at a time when fear and misunderstanding were commonplace. So much progress has been made on the fight against AIDS, but the research, patient-support and access to information must continue until a cure is found,” Casey said. Threesome David Furnish, KC & Elton John Photo: Jeremy Westby Recipients of the Elton John AIDS Foundation’s Enduring Vision Awards included M. Michele Burns, Robert J. Coury and Tracey Emin. M. Michele Burns is an internationally recognized corporate and philanthropic leader who played an integral part in EJAF’s inception, serving as an Executive Board Member and Treasurer throughout the Foundation’s 23-year history. Robert J. Coury, Executive Chairman of Mylan, continues to be a visionary in leading the company into areas where it can make a difference, such as improving global health and helping to end the AIDS epidemic.
