C.J. Brookelyn in Bellevue offers hairstyling, manicures, accessories and more - Bellevue Examiner

After several productive months with Rodan + Fields skin care, I was able to splurge on having my hair done at a real hair salon!

I called several salons in the Bellevue area and picked C.J. Brookelyn based on price and proximity. I was not disappointed.

A trip to C.J. Brookelyn Hair and Nail Salon in Bellevue is a pleasant
experience. Tucked away between Baskin Robbins and the Bellevue Post Office, the salon can be a little hard to find so the owner Lori Denney has festooned her glass door and windows with hanging lights to draw attention to the business.

It is a fact that many obese people have fewer lines and wrinkles than their healthier counterparts. That is not because their skin is healthier, however, but because adipose tissue or body fat is loose connective tissue.

Country-gospel artist Glen Campbell to release his last song - Examiner

 This article was hard for me to write. I had a huge crush on Glen Campbell in junior high and then later, I slowly lost my own father to this dreadful disease. It breaks my heart for anyone to have to walk down this long road. God bless you, Glen Campbell.

Country Music Hall of Fame member Glen Campbell has recorded his last song which will release on September 30 to digital retailers. “I’m Not Gonna Miss You” was written by Campbell and Julian Raymond for “Glen Campbell… I’ll Be Me,” a new documentary about Campbell’s life and his battle with Alzheimer’s disease. The film had its world premiere at Nashville Film Festival in April 2014.

“I’m Not Gonna Miss You” reveals the things Alzheimer’s steals—what is lost, the cost, and the reality of all that will all be taken from Campbell and those who deal with the relentless disease. The country star recently entered a long-term care facility in Nashville to better provide for his condition.
