Home sick today. Usually, I’d feel guilty, but the last sick day I took (according to my blog) was in August, and April before that. That’s the good thing about having a blog. I can look these things up!

As I slept last night, I felt chilly and sweaty simultaneously, which brings the word fever to mind. Since my doctor, WebMD, says to stay home when you have a fever…home I stayed.

After I called out, I fell back asleep until 2:00ish. Max and Charlie stayed in bed with me. I guess Max knew I was off my game; when I woke up I found his favorite toy – a stuffed squeaky bone – on my chest. Maybe he thought it would make me feel better?

So here I am, on my sofa with tons of pillows, my pitcher of water, phone, laptop (duh!), December Martha Stewart Magazine, and a Chinese delivery menu within arms reach. I’m a happy sick girl!

And, if you go to Google, type in ladygypsy and hit the “I’m feeling lucky” button…you come here! 🙂 But, if you type in my real name, you come up with a Disney Trip Report that I wrote back in 1999. I was really big on LOL-ing then. Sorry about that.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
