I've had a lot of thoughts swirling in my head and originally thought this post might be the longest post I would ever write. Then I uploaded photos from my camera and realized I had better things to write about. All of the swirling thoughts disappeared and what became important was right in front of… Continue reading This is fine.
Z: Are you ok with a crowded desk for a while? Me: I have to be. This past Wednesday I went into the office to go get my plants and grab an extra monitor to use with my laptop at home. My personal computer is an iMac and I can't get licenses for the software… Continue reading Abnormalize
Everything is closing or closed. The markets are scary looking ghostly places with empty shelves. There was so little traffic this morning I felt a chill. This was slower than a holiday. It truly seemed post-apocalyptic in a way. 50, no, only 10 people are allowed to congregate now! But, what about business? Tomorrow I… Continue reading Upheaval of every kind
I am still sick. I've been sick since last Friday. I don't have the coronavirus (that I know of), but what I can tell you is this is one of the worst sinus infections I've had in many years. It crept up on me very suddenly and that scares me. We had little to no… Continue reading A different kind of illness
This weekend was supposed to be full of house cleaning and eating at a wonderful tea house and then wandering a beautiful greenhouse with it's own arboretum and me using my gift card on some hanging pots and a princess philodendron. None of that is happening because I am horribly ill. Like clockwork my throat… Continue reading State of the plants
The remote for my camera is currently out of commission so I dragged up the workout mirror from the basement to take this outfit photo. I didn't realize the mirror was so dirty until much later. Lately I've been wearing jeans a lot, but today I felt like wearing a bunch of neutrals so I… Continue reading Scheduling routine
After carefully writing out what I felt was necessary to achieve a shopping ban I felt comfortable with yesterday, plenty of other things came to mind today. Therein lies the problem: at what point do you restrict yourself? I will stick with what I wrote down, but will add a few cautionary items that I… Continue reading Start Date: Shopping Ban
This month was significantly more expensive than last month. There are some things I'm leaving off because the biggest thing I'm trying to curb is my wardrobe spending, so most other things get a pass - to a degree. Bass penny loafers - $67.99: Yep, I bought a pair. They had a sale on the… Continue reading February Spending
I've had to ask myself the big questions lately: With regards to the one seemingly necessary women's accessory - the handbag - am I one of those fancy tote-carrying types or do I prefer to be as casual as possible? For the past month I've been on the hunt for a new handbag. The only… Continue reading Oddly coincidental
The single orange rose is from a full bouquet of them I got for Valentine's Day. Z knows I'm not fond of red roses. In fact, I like any color except red for roses. Coral/orange, light purple and peach ones are my favorite. I've been writing a lot more to help de-stress and as I… Continue reading Writing a better year
