Welcome, Flapjack!

My nephew (son of my brother John and the lovely Kristen) decided that waiting for his proper May 15 due date wasn’t going to happen. Why do that when April can be so amazing? So one week ago today he…

Happy birthday, Kristen!

The Blues

I. Am. So. Blue. Why? Here’s the list: 1) My feet hurt, but only after extended periods of being off of them. Such as in the mornings when I wake up or … every time I get up at work,…

Frazzled!

I swear to Pete (sorry, Pete) that calmness only settles in my life for never more than a month. I had a great Memorial Day weekend. I took Friday off and Mom & I went to Ocean City. I was…

Monday lunch

Wt: 158.4. Damnation. Today I spent lunch at my own desk, people be damned. I worked through 40 minutes of it, though. Oh well. In the 20 minutes I used to rest my brain, I managed to find 3 of…

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.
