Murphy, December 2020

Murphy has BIG FEELINGS, whether it’s barkingly upset or barkingly happy or whiningly sad or growlingly irritated. As we headed into our first Christmas with Murphy back in 2017, we were worried that he’d destroy all of the holiday decorations.

We were wrong. Because Murphy LOVES Christmas.

He doesn’t knock into the trees. He is respectful of the Christmas village. He tosses the regular sofa pillows on the floor but leaves the Christmas throw pillows alone. He never barks at the fire engine that brings Santa up our street every December. And he will make a point to nap underneath tree lights.

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.
