Good and Meh 2024: Week 4

my new craft corner, a few shelves with crafty tchotchkes above my beat up IKEA table and $10 chair
I regret the yellow paint at least once a week.

Good Things: It was a good week for a list-maker, because I crossed almost everything off of my list each day. Once the big thaw started to happen, Murphy and I were able to start taking good walks again. I had fancy coffee on Wednesday when I went into the office, and Wednesday night I had dinner with Mom, John, and Nephew A. On Friday we managed to stay awake for Movie Night (The Ice Pirates – terrible) with our friends. I put out Valentine decor for the first time in 2 years. And I made enough progress in the Craft Room-now-Corner to fit the Total Gym up there.

Meh Things: I let the backyard poop patrol duties lapse for way too long and had to deal with the consequences on Saturday. Missed 2 days of yoga due to weird scheduling. And I’m not reading. I have book I’m enjoying, but picking it up and literally reading it seems like such a chore. Maybe I just have to schedule reading for 20 minutes a night just like Nephew A has to.

Verdict? Definitely a good week.

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.
