It’s giving me “Valley of the Dolls” flashbacks, with a dash of Prince.

I downloaded a few fitness aps, including a yoga specific one. Down dog has made my foot issues (I suspect plantar fasciitis) immediately better. I haven’t done yoga in years and I can already feel my posture and gait getting better. I love that I can commit to 30 minutes at a time, do a full hour, or do more high…

TGIS!

Craft Thread!

I would watch this show under one condition: John Goodman only speaks in lines from Barton Fink, Big Lebowski and Raising Arizona.

“I just wanted to have that dialogue about families torn apart by the election and their political differences of opinion and how we handle it.”

I can’t support someone as vile as Barr. Will and Grace and Queer Eye for me, please.

Awwww... I love how you stayed busy and kept the door shut on the depression this week! Best of luck on your job search - and your goal lists!

Fingers are crossed that you get the job and can move forward with your life plans!

I became a PhD candidate this week! ABD!

This is a scarf that I’m working on. Each rows color corresponds with the high temperature of the day. In this pic it’s almost as long as my coffee table is wide, and I imagine that it will be crazy long by the time I’m done on New Year’s Eve.

I’m out tonight for the first time since my divorce. Like, I’ve gone out to dinner with friends, but tonight is the first night since 2015 that I’m out at a bar, and I just feel awkward. I used to be a going out girl, and since the divorce, I’ve just turned into a home body. And I’m okay with that. I’ll be 38 this…

I finally put together a home office after ten years of working from my couch, floor, kitchen, and sometimes my bed. I am crazy stoked-and I already had two good ideas in 24 hours while kicked back in my “thinking” pose (feet up, head back, rap loud). I also had someone come give a quote for my dream of a shoe and…

OMG, I’ve never been this early for SNS!

I’m sobbing. This woman is so brave. To be thrown into to this and handle it with such strength and poise. Last I heard she’s attending my Alma Mata in the fall and I don’t feel worthy.

Davenport, IA showed up in the middle of a snowstorm!

GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
