What the heck kind of mailing list am I on?

Back in January I received an AARP card. I received a second one at the beginning of March. Didn’t blog that one because my arthritis was flaring up. (rolls eyes) Today, among the stack of junk mail I received a…

Life hates me

This little beauty was in my mailbox this morning. Apparently, I’m not making “the most of life over 50.” AARP CARD!?!?! I called them this morning and asked to be removed from their list of evil fear-mongering.

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! :)

Well, that happened.
