Our Halloween decorations include a plastic skeleton head and hands that we jam into the overgrown ivy in our front yard. The trick-or-treaters love it. WM loves it too and this year asked if we could leave it out and…
Missed Station Friday
I’m currently reading A God in Ruins by Kate Atkinson. It’s not so much a sequel to Life After Life, but rather a parallel book. So far it’s been very well-written, but sad. Not tragically so, but just a constant,…
Chocolate Chip Thursday
Day two of “business professional” and I adeptly scaled it back down to fit in, although I still looked sharp. “Sharp as a dart,” my grandmother would say. Mom says I’m a lot like her when I become impatient and…
Overdressed Wednesday
It was a strange Wednesday at work, not for anything involving me, but there are Things Going On at the Upper Levels of Management and those vibes always travel downward. We were asked to dress “business professional” today and tomorrow…
JeepUnited and it feels so good
After work WM picked me up at the Collingswood PATCO station (my old stomping ground) and we retrieved a repaired Molly from the shop. Even though I only drive maybe a mile and a half a day total, that second…
Arthritic Toes Monday
From yesterday, crappy grammar corrected: Tomorrow I work from home, fingers and toes crossed that Molly can be fixed tomorrow AND cheaply. Kim Russell, 11.17.19 Molly’s repair will cost over $1,300 and she won’t be done ’til tomorrow. Womp womp….
Cozy Sunday
Today after dropping Molly the Jeep off at the shop (check engine light, probably a million dollars to fix) we went out to breakfast, hit up JoAnn fabric for quilt batting for Christmas Village snow, and then Walmart for groceries….
Refrigerator Saturday
(typed while watching a cheesy PBS Christmas music program) I woke up today on a mission to SET THINGS RIGHT. I haven’t been the best housekeeper lately, because all I want to do is eat and hit the sofa. And…
Friday musings
When I started blogging back in late 2002, it was just me keeping a diary of what I do. I think until I get my groove back, I’m going to revert to that type of journaling. This morning I managed…
What have you missed?
Summer was the best and then House Russell slammed into Sad Girl Autumn with the ferocity of a Super Dave stunt. Yeah. Like that. I’m going to start with good things..> I had a birthday!> WM and I went to…
Lovin’ Summer, had me a blast
I decided a long time ago I have no desire to live past the age of 83. It seems macabre (and trust that I’m not going to kill myself on my 83rd birthday) but when you have more summers behind…
Show us your Books: August 2019
Does the new theme make up for the fact I’ve been a D- blogger? *grin* I need to tweak the fonts a bit but I like it – it’s simpler and I need that right now. I also created a…
