Yeah, I know! I’m very, very late with this one! It’s been a month, and it’s only the 6th, maybe 7th when you read this! September is the first month of those that end with BER! I’ve been easy on you, my friends, and on me. September may be a little harder. Let’s see what …
Several years ago, my hairstylist did this to my hair! I need to show her this photo for a future color! I’ve been doing the Hair Chronicles over on Facebook. I’ve actually been doing them LIVE!! At first, it was a little scary, but now I’ve fallen into a rhythm with it. The thing is …
How many of you ever think about garbage collection? I admit it’s not at the top of my list…unless it’s Monday night or when the garbage isn’t picked up! I remember the garbage strikes in NYC many years ago. It was not a pretty picture! When we lived up north as well as our last …
Week 121! I heard our area of Indiana only got 1.6 inches of rain in August so I was really excited when it stormed here on Wednesday night. It sounded like there was a lot of rain coming down, but the rain gauge only read 0.1 inch. I think there may have been some evaporation, …

Welcome to another edition of Style Imitating Art! If you’re new to the blog, or just need a refresher, Style Imitating Art is a really cool idea pairing fashion with art. Last year, I joined Shelbee and Salazar as curators for SIA. We begin with a piece of art, create looks based upon that art, and share them on …
I’m trying to find the words to express my heartache over the deaths of children in South Minneapolis this past week. I keep thinking about the immense loss that community suffered. The lives that won’t be lived. The futures shattered. I also think about the lifelong damage the other children will suffer. How they will …
Week 120! My fingers and hands quickly healed from the attack of the rose bush last week. I may have gone overboard in cutting away the dead stuff because it looks a little lopsided. It just insists on growing taller and taller instead of out. When I dead head that particular bush, I try to …
I’ve been promising you a bit of my graduation tour in order to become a docent at the Indianapolis Museum of Art at Newfields. Are you wondering about that lengthy name? Here’s just a little bit of information about that. Hugh Landon built the country house in the early years of the 20th century along …
