What I read in the Spring/Summer of 2025

a screenshot of my phone's "shut up and read' 20minute timer.

I’ve finally managed to wrangle myself back into a reading habit. How? By setting a cheeky-20 minute timer every day and making myself read. I can do anything for 20 minutes, and if the alarm goes off and I feel…

July 2025 cards: I crafted a watermelon?

completed cards - patterned paper, watermelon, and a raised "hello" sentiment

(With apologies to Dirty Dancing, I didn’t carry a watermelon…I crafted fourteen of them!) A little review for the new readers: my current craft is making greeting cards. I’m a member of MetaFilter’s Card Club, meaning not only do I…

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! :)
