Have I mentioned that WM is in grad school at my old alma mater, Rowan? This semester he’s taking classes on Tuesday and Thursday nights, which means I fend for myself. What this night should have looked like: I leave…
Breathing love in and breathing love out
I’m still trucking along with my TRUE – 30 Days of Yoga program by Yoga With Adriene. As a sedentary human, it’s hard for me to commit to moving every day for a month. But I’m still here. And barring…
Currently: Wrestling edition
Watching: THE 2018 ROYAL RUMBLE! It’s in Philadelphia this year, and I wanted to go but I missed when tickets went on sale (Last summer was A SUMMER) and they were very expensive anyway. As a result, I’m watching it…
Friday 5: Returns
I think this was my first 5-day workweek of the year and I NAILED IT. I kid, I’m exhausted. Philadelphia is jacked up because the Eagles are going to the Super Bowl. I’m not a fan of the organization or…
La Ratatouille
“Your last Christmas gift came!” WM exclaimed as I came home from work one day last week. He offered me a large, flat cardboard box. I opened it and smiled. He hung it up outside of the kitchen. For the…
Safe, loved, and warm in 2018
I promised myself on my birthday that I would do more to make sure my neighbors (here in NJ and in the USA) can be safe, loved and warm. Here’s how I’m trying to do that in 2018. 1. I…
Winter continues to blow
Another tiny burst of snow, which will melt this afternoon and refreeze tonight and try to kill us all. I’m just feeling better from the fall I took down my own front steps last week. 131 days until Memorial Day.

For Christmas, my mom hooked me up with a Singer sewing machine. I asked for one because I am not paying gobs of money for throw pillows and window treatments and cushions. Problem is, I haven’t sewn in a LONG…
Happy first birthday, Murphy!
Happy birthday, Murphy! Although he came to us in April, Murphy was born on January 15, 2017 in Missouri. Judging from his disdain of the dark, he likely spent his first months in a dark cage. He didn’t sell, so…
Our Adventureland bathroom
Once upon a time we had a lovely half-bathroom downstairs. And then we got a puppy! We decided that when we went to work we’d have him stay in the bathroom, because it was larger than a crate and he’d…
Show us your books: January 2018
Due to December craziness, I missed that month’s Show Us Your Books roundup and you know what? I actually missed writing up the summary. Go figure! My Goodreads goal for 2017 was 50 books…I only read 41. Womp womp. As…
Currently, deep freeze edition
It’s 17 degrees out, which is actually warmer than it’s been. We went to MOD Pizza for lunch, marking the first time I left the house in days. Leave it to food to draw me out of my cocoon of…
