Travel tip for achy people

a blue half-gallon silicone bag filled with ice

Through the years my physical condition has devolved from “fine!’ to “ugh something always hurts these days” to “man, multiple things hurt these days” and vacations where there is a lot of walking involved seem to exacerbate that. And you…

Wordless Wednesday 2023 wk 45

kim with her "i voted" sticker after going to the local election JUST to vote against the school board candidate thinks we shouldn't be teaching about race, gender, or climate in our schools.

Maybe some words: I’ve been in a MOOD since hurting my knee (mostly recovered) and catching a cold shortly thereafter (also mostly recovered), and worrying about Murphy’s dental cleaning (went well, he’s almost fully recovered) so the blog suffered a…

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! :)
