Last year I subtitled this post “Books in the time of Coronavirus Part1” and look at us one year later. Still a mess but closer to herd immunity due to vaccines and general human carelessness! Writers & Lovers – Lily…

You guys – I went to some stores this weekend! I was in Michael’s for about 4 minutes before the crowds (checkout line snaking throughout the store, people literally pushing by) drove me away. Fair, it’s the weekend before Valentine’s…

It feels so nice to write 2021. Even if things are … more of the same. I’m starting to say, “hey self, stop doomscrolling on your phone at nights and maybe read some of these books? Hm?” I read four…

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! :)
