a blog by Kim Russell

May 7, 2013

She lives!

Confession 1: I quit this blog about a month ago and didn’t tell anyone.
Confession 2: I didn’t tell anyone because my quitting this blog usually doesn’t last.

Now that I got this out of the way… April!

WM and I went to Walt Disney World the first week of April — the week after Easter. While we had a tremendous blast I don’t think I’d go back the week after Easter again. Very, very crowded. We stayed at Port Orleans: Riverside (formerly Dixie Landings). It’s beautiful there. We did not do the dining plan because despite how good it seems, it’s just not a right financial fit for us.

Photos below – I’m playing with gallery plugins so if you click on a photo you’ll get a slideshow. This will change eventually, but the dogs need to pee.

Medical update: Knee is better, stomach is better, allergies are okay and this morning I had an apicoectomy on the tooth that I had the root canal on in September/October. Google that if you want a world of disgusting. The pain’s really insignificant (thankfully) and because of the swelling involved, I’m sporting a natural duckface. No hostess picture this day, folks.

I decided to take today off in case I ended up oozing rivers of blood out of my mouth (I Googled apicoectomy, which is why I told you not to.) I’m bored senseless. So I’m binge watching Parks and Recreation from episode 1. I’m 8 eps in so far.

    Ugh, I’ve had some oral work done (BAHAHA!) and it’s not so fun. However the Netflix watching and ice cream eating are incredibly satisfying. And of course, they sometimes give fantastic medicine.

    Take it easy, get pumped that the concert is just over a month away, and it will be FAB.

    And then I Google’d it, because I was told not to. And I was not unrewarded for me efforts!

    Katie: I ended up watching 14 episodes of Parks and Rec and I ate only one serving of the ice cream. (300 cal!)

    Julia: Gross, isn’t it?

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! :)
