Where to Begin . . .
Goodness, you guys are incredibly good to me. I am going to start with my thank you’s, but they are in no particular order. Kevin, you are so sweet to surprise me with a candle, and a tank and shorts set. The candle scent fills the house with a soft, subtle pine smell, which is perfect for the winter, and the blue tank set is sexy and fun. Thank you! Rodney, you disappeared on me for awhile, but you returned last month and immediately found my wishlist. You are kind and so thoughtful, thank you! I love the lingerie and will wear it during my next content-filled weekend, which…

Always Amazed by You
G’morning and happy sub-zero day for those of you that are stuck underneath the eternal polar vortex, also known as the blizzard of 2018. I woke up to rain, which turned to snow for about an hour and now the mountains and valleys are covered in beautiful white fluff. It is a gloomy, cold day and it makes for a perfect opportunity to clear my list. I have to say, I am already well on my way, despite playing Toy Blast for an hour and my internet lagging. I have a lot to blog about, mostly thanks and appreciation for gifts and such, and I do plan to do that…

Name One Thing . . .
Without giving it much thought, name one thing that made you smile today.

NYE Plans
Alright, so I mentioned I would be online, as usual, but after last week being so busy and then my day off full of errands and more chores, I really need tomorrow for some down town. With that said, I will be online in the evening, well before the clock strikes midnight on the east coast, and would love to ring in the new year with any of you that choose to be online. I hope that whatever it is you choose to do that you stay safe and enjoy the company of friends and family. If you are drinking, please be smart and hire a driver or make arrangements…

Do Not Do It!
Most banking, savings, and credit card accounts have the option for PAPERLESS. I chose to do this on all of my accounts in April, which cut down on the excess paper and also made it easy in my “moving transitions”. Some of the accounts I closed over the summer and now I need the statements emailed to me because I can no longer access the online account. I am running into a problem getting these statements because I fucking closed the account and was paperless. You would think it would be easy, but it is not. So, if you plan on getting a divorce, either don’t go paperless or save…

Online For the Holiday Weekend
G’afternoon and happy holiday’s! It has taken me awhile to decide whether or not I will be online this weekend and through Monday. Not because I do not want to be, but with it being the holiday’s, I am just unsure who will be online. However, there are a few of you that I know are spending the day in solitude, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I would like to be on for anyone that might want the company. Saturday night – after dinner. I am shooting for midnight EST. I am having a late dinner, around 11 EST, so trying to get on before that will…

The Grinch
It is common knowledge that I completely abhor the holiday’s. It is something that has always been a natural hate for me; one I did not have to work at. It was not until recent years that I have realized I could seriously do without the month of December. You might say I am Ebenezer Scrooge, or the Grinch (except I do not steal presents). It is not that I hate the jolly old fat man, or the cheerfulness that the holiday’s give some people. It is that people put too much stress on themselves and have an image of what the holiday should be. Maybe I am alone in…

Maxi Dress is NOT a Bridesmaid Gown
Alright, Amazon is really pissing me off with their fucking search engine results and what some shop owners are now tagging their items with. For awhile now it has been impossible to find specific items, such as, pink lingerie, without pages of non-relevant items mixed in. Now, try searching for maxi dresses (floor length) without pulling up bridesmaid gowns and the like. I am sorry, but a $10 – wear one time on a beach vacation – is NOT a goddamn gown to be worn in a wedding. I do not care how simple and low key that event will be. It is as though stores just want their item…

Beautiful
I saw this the other day and it speaks volumes to the year, and gives me hope for the next chapter in my life. Be present. Make love. Make tea. Avoid small talk. Embrace conversation. Buy a plant, water it. Make your bed. Make someone else’s bed. Have a smart mouth, and quick wit. Run. Make art. Create. Swim in the ocean. Swim in the rain. Rake chances. Ask questions. Make mistakes. Learn. Know your worth. Love fiercely. Forgive quickly. Let go of what doesn’t make you happy. Grow.

Spuds in a Pot
Last week I was cleaning and saw that a couple of potatoes were starting to sprout on the counter, and it turns out I had a pot of dirt that I was about to dump and store for the winter. So, the bright thinker that I am, I saved time by shoving the two spuds into the pot of dirt, crossing off two things from my list in just 1 minute! Within a week leaves started sprouting already and now days later it is out of control! So, I will take a picture every other day for us to follow the progress of its growth. I think I need a…
