My dogs and this pillow

Nov 28 2018

I bought the pillow to help decorate my spartan little apartment the year of my divorce. At the time you never could have convinced me all of the love that would eventually surround it.

Ollie: Things are looking up

Sep 26 2018

His ears are clear, his gums are healed and Ollie’s back in a good season of life.

When we go for walks he keeps up the pace with little effort. We’re up to three blocks, whereas in the spring he was dragging at a half block.

I've been blogging for over 16 years and I'm apparently one of the few over-40 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun and unprofitable. No big.

~~Wife. Dog lover. Slob.~~ I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dogs Ollie and Murphy. I work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia. 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! :)
