Wordless Wednesday 2025: Week 13

Random thoughts and Murphy’s birthday

Murphy in his black and white splendor, on the bed watching me fold laundry. He's a little grayer around the muzzle than he used to be.

Yesterday I went to the MVC (aka the DMV) to upgrade my drivers license to a Real ID. New Jersey was one of the last states to get their program up and running. I brought a giant packet with me…

Wordless Wednesday 2025: Week 2

Murphy, freshly groomed. He's in the passenger side of my own damn ride trying to holler at me. He belongs in the back seat and I need to clean my windows

Wordless Wednesday 2024: Week 21

A very very close up photo of Murphy's nose. The photo is poor and blurry but still adorable.

Random thoughts on a Thursday

murphy, a black and white spaniel-ish dog

Rabbit rabbit! Happy February. It’s about time to start planning my garden! Last week was my 12th anniversary at TNP. Soon I’ll be there longer than I was at the CP, and that blows my mind because in 2012, 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! :)
