You might think that with all of the energy I spend being June’s biggest hypeman, I ignoreJuly. But July is also great. It’s just a liiiiiiiiiiiiiitle bit more cicada-y. A liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitle bit more humid. And once July 5th rolls around,…

red text that says Sunday June 30 layered on top of a Friday June 28 calendar page

Happy, uh, Sunday! Which is also Social Media Day, and National Meteor Watch Day. It’s also two days post the regular Friday 5, but I have a great excuse. Friday night I had dinner in Philadelphia with two very lovely…

A former slob cleans her house: keyrings

seven empty keyrings and a very worn covid-era door opener/button pusher

Here’s another organizational tip from me, your GenX older cousin/uncool aunt who hates the word “edit” being used for “houseclean.” How long has it been since you’ve really LOOKED at your keys? Between Mom and I, we managed to eliminate…

Lady of the Manor: Ceiling fan install

a functional ceiling fan in Kim's seldom-seen bedroom, which is blue.

Our home is a split level built in 1960. I’ve said this before but all of the people who swoon over mid-century modern (MCM) houses probably don’t live in real, unadulterated MCM homes. For example, in many of our rooms,…

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! :)
