Wipeout

It’s been raining for days. Water is seeping into our basement (WTF?) and the ground is all muddy. Which is good for the various growing things we’ve been working on. But notsogood for me, as the weather kept me away…

My defeat garden

(not to become a Victory Garden until it bears edible products) My self-mutilation is healing quite well. I think. Cleaning it isn’t so bad and bactine is now sting-free. (Kids are wimps these days…sting-free bactine, custom flavored medicine, gumdrop vitamins)….

I did it!

I wanted to do it before I turned 35. So 2 years ago I said, “I’m going to do it!” Everyone said, “Cool!” And I chickened out. Last year I said, “I’m going to do it!” Everyone said, “That’s nice.”…

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! :)

A plucky heroine and academically minded hero? A road trip to Key West? Optimism v pessimism?? Adults being adults and using their words to keep disagreements from lasting more than a few hours? Sign me up forever.

the wombsday clock graphic with two teal haired women in white rockers. It has reached 12 months and there are teal and white stars all over the graphic.
Well, that happened.
