Mary Oliver Devotions: A Thousand Mornings & Swan

Mary Oliver Devotions, with a bookmark in it on top of a notebook. My purple fountain pen is next to it. The cover has a photo of a woman spoonfeeding a small bird.

I’m slowly making my way through this Mary Oliver collection because once upon a time I wanted to add more poetry to my life. It was supposed to be an every morning exercise, but now it’s once in a while….

Journal prompt: reframing regrets

The text reads "Regrets, I've had a few, but then again, too few to mention. My Way written by Paul Anka, performed by Frank Sinatra." There is a glass of whiskey in the background

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! :)
