Arthritic Toes Monday

pissed off wet dog in tub

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…

Show Us Your Books: June 2019

What the hell happened to May, Kim?? Don’t know. It’s funny. I was on a reading TEAR and then got into a new book and…stopped. I kept reading a half-chapter and putting it down. And then I got distracted by…

May 2019

(subtitle: where the hell have you been?) Hi there! Heck of a month, eh? I can’t quite explain WHY I haven’t been blogging, I just haven’t. Things have been great though! See? Nephew A’s 5th birthday party was at a…

Angry Man Farms 2019: Outside

So much has changed in 3 weeks! Thanks to this bonehead WM had to make some modifications to the raised bed. The front screen is removable so I can weed and water. He also personalized it, which made me smile….

Savannah 2019

I had the fortune to be able to travel to Savannah earlier this month for work — the same PersoniFest that brought me to Austin last year — and ye Gods, what a gorgeous city. Savannah is a very walkable…

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! :)
