My beach corner

Here in the Northeast in the deadness of January, desperate times call for desperate measures. To combat the malaise, I created a beach corner in the bottom of my cubicle.

The beach corner.
The beach corner.

The palm tree magnet came from Old Navy years ago.

The bamboo plant was from the Philadelphia Flower Show. Who walks among amazing horticultural feats and buys a $3 bamboo plant? This blogger.

I bought the tiki fountain for a quarter from a yard sale about 6 years back. I don’t utilize the fountain feature because then I’d have to pee all day.

The shells are from various beaches, and the lovely Disney plaque was a Christmas gift from WM.

Unfortunately the beach corner isn’t working because it’s still cold. Only 150 days, 22 hours to go until summer.

    Good idea. I have shells out at home but nothing at work.

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.
