Good and Meh 2024: Week 3

Good Things: It was an icy, snowy week here. WM’s school district made all of the right calls with delayed openings and closings. On Saturday I accomplished a lot in what I used to call the craft room but now is kind of just a spare room again. I moved the shelves into the closet to make room for our Total Gym. I still have space for my craft table in there, and my little nook (I’ll call it the craft nook!) is going to be cute when it’s finished. The Detroit Lions won, which makes the 2/3 of my household who hail from Michigan happy, which makes me happy as well. And I created my Valentine cards for a card swap.

two shots of a little metal squirrel sculpture. In the first, the squirrel is halfway buried by snow. In the second, it's almost all buried.
L: Squirrel Sculpture on Wednesday. R: Squirrel Sculpture on Sunday.

Meh Things: My nails are breaking, which is a consequence of my peeling nail polish off of them. You’re not supposed to do that because it weakens them. Now I know, but I probably have a few months of peeling, breaking nails to deal with. I found out it’s the last year of Yoga with Adriene’s January 30 days of Yoga series. Haven’t been able to walk because of the weather. The Devils are not playing well at all.

Verdict: Good week! I’m getting into a good routine and doing some good work on myself. This week will be my first 5-day week since December, and one of those days is our in-office day. I’m going to be a pile of goo by Friday.

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.
