I’ve decided to lose the monthly or quarterly Roundups and post them more sporadically. Moreover, since September marks the beginning of Fall, it seems like a great time to highlight some of the most interesting posts and news since July.  Be sure to check them out and feel free, always, to send me a note telling me what you’d like to see included in the next Roundup.

• Are You Working Through the Transition? Or Is It Working You? – Women want their managers to understand how menopause can affect their work. The first step? Education.
• “Age-Appropriate” Dress for Women Over 50 – Welcome to the dark ages. Not for me, nnuh-uh.
