A conspiracy!

First he says “Spare the pump, spoil the Jersey Girl,” then the Wandering Minstrel makes me pump gas during my Michigan trip!

Okay, alright. Anyone who knows me knows that I volunteered to do it. I think it’s pretty neat to not have to wait for an attendant to pump, and I only get to play with liquid flammables during out of state trips. I still need to work on “The Perfect Squeeze,” though.

I like my hair in this one. You won’t see me say that much.

Also, my red sofa arrived on Saturday. It’s taken a few months, but this place is finally starting to feel like home. Pictures once I get a new camera battery. (puts that on the shopping list that contains such sundries as: paper shredder, ironing board, Krazy Glue – my Goodness, the crap one needs to have a functioning household just slays me.)

And because I haven’t totally driven myself crazy yet, I’m joining NaNoWriMo again. This time I’m feeling pretty good about it since I have a plot in mind. A murder mystery!

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! :)

Well, that happened.
