This vase is half my age

I remember going to Color Me Mine on my 26th birthday and painting this vase. I thoughr the spirals and suns reflected the new-agey girl I thought I was (they do) and that the color choices were very late-90s (they are).

left: a yellowish ceramic vase with blue spirals and orange suns stamped onto it. R: the bottom of the vase, reading KT 9/5/98 — I had different initials then.

And now it’s 26 years old and has moved houses with me four times. I should take it to Color Me Mine.

PS: I received my Flovid vaccines yesterday. Yay 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! :)
