Good and Meh 2023: Week 50

Good Things:

Wednesday: Our monthly day in the office. I organize a yearly cookie exchange at TNP that went really well and netted us a bunch of scrumptious cookies. Had a drink at a bar I’ve never been to before, and was home by 7:30pm.

Friday: WM and I saw the No Name Pops. I love that guy and our outings.

Saturday: Santa made his yearly trip through the neighborhood on a fire engine, which is always good for a smile.

Santa on an old firetruck.
My tax dollars at work, ho ho.
Meh Things:

Monday: Received X-ray results that confirmed my suspicion of a heel spur causing problems with my Achilles tendon. There doesn’t seem to be much I can do other than PT exercises. But because my foot has been in pain since late spring, I’ve been walking differently to try and accommodate it and now my ankles, knees, hips, and lower back hurt as well. I have a followup appointment in February and I’m thankful that it’s not super-serious or worse, “nothing at all”, but on Monday I was sad and sore.

Saturday/Sunday: The fun Friday vibes couldn’t compete against a moody Saturday and Sunday.

Verdict: Meh came in from behind at the last minute and stole a victory.

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.
