Good & Meh 2024: Week 1

Monday, Monday. I have today off and my calendar is filled with here-and-there things. Donate books at the library, swing by the post office, pick up heartworm and flea/tick preventative at the vet. (For the dog.) But how was last…

Happy New Year, friends! May it be kind to us all. Steamboat Willie is now part of the public domain so you’d better believe I’m using him here on the blog! We consumed a good amount of holiday media between…

Wordless Wednesday 2023: Week 52

a flameless candle in my front window on the longest night of the year. I used Photoshop's AI function to remove the water rings from the wood.

Okay, some words. I have done this exercise every week for an entire year! You guys. This is big! Let the sponsorships roll in! (crickets)

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! :)
