Hi all ........ I've not been posting much (or at all!) for quite a while, as I've been trying to work on a few personal issues. Issue #1 - I've been 3 weeks sober. I know I've gone thru this "give up the vodka" thing before, and I'm not saying this could be IT for …
OMG! SNOWMAGEDDON!
Well, probably not reeeeeallly, but people in Missouri tend to truly freak out when snow is a real possibility. I'm most likely in the 3-5" range, however I've also seen a report that up to 10 inches of snow will fall South of St. Louis proper. I'm CERTAIN that schools are already gearing up for …

A Bit of Boho
I've really been getting into the Boho vibe lately and have taken steps to decorate, and dress, in a more bohemian way --- more color, comfort, homey, free, hippie-ish ... more ME. Anyway, yesterday I hit a new-to-me consignment shop in the STL area, Miriam Switching Post, and have to add this to my "most …

Living in Hell
St. Louis has been absolutely HELLA HOT these last few weeks .... holy balls, a person can't even go to the Walgreens a mile away without turning into a sweat puddle or, as in the gif above, a burning, flaming human-ish blob. I have nice patio furniture that I can't use because ... yep, IT'S TOO …
What’s your style?
I'm in a dilemma. I HATE almost every piece of clothing I have. I also HATE to shop and HATE to try stuff on in store dressing rooms. But the worst part is .... I don't know what my own personal style IS. I know what I don't like .... tops that show off my …
FINAL baby blue jay update
Saturday morning I checked on the baby blue jay family, but they had all flown away. They are now out there doing whatever "teenager" birds do --- eating and pooping mostly. Anyway, I removed the nest from its spot in the privacy fence and .... added it to my collection of stuff.
Baby blue jay update 5/17/18
These little baby birds have really caught my interest (DUH! LOL). I love seeing how they grow and change in just a day or two. They are feathered out and two of them flew out of the nest! I'm sure they will be out on their own very soon. Feathered out and ready to fly …
