Spring trends for denim jackets… I’m hearing the spring trends for denim jackets this spring are for a softer silhouette. It’s less truck driver and more schoolmarm. OK, that may be stretching it, but I was trying to come up with some kind of dramatic comparison! Anyhoo, don’t give away your more tailored and traditional …
It’s time for my regular weather report. One of the local tv stations is saying winter is pretty much over for those of us in Central Indiana. He blamed it on El Nino. I’m sure my daffodils and hyacinths are happy, but I am not. I would have liked one really, really good snowfall! Friday, …
Ah, February! Here you are. Have I missed you? Hmmm, I don’t think so. It always seems like this shortest month of all drags on forever. And, this year, we get an extra day…yippee? Even though Nigel and I don’t really do much for Valentine’s Day, I caved for this month’s 10 on the 10th. …
Better than one… My style has changed, evolved, whatever you want to call it over the years. Just as now, when I was teaching, I was known for wearing skirts and dresses. But, I don’t think I ever mixed prints or matched patterns. Let’s just say I was a toned down version of the current …
Here’s the weather report for this week. I woke up on Sunday to a couple of inches of snow on the ground. Nigel had hurt his calf or ankle; it changes places. 🤦Our very good neighbors are recovering from a bout of Covid so I shoveled our driveway as well as theirs. Needless to say, …
Ah, January! The month some of us love to hate or hate to love! Did you know more couples separate or divorce in January? I do wonder why that is. Do you think it’s because of the added pressure of the holidays? January was named after the Roman god, Janus. He was the two faced …
Ok, let’s get the weather report out of the way. Friday and Saturday, we had highs in the high 50s (~14C). It’s almost like when you’re emerging from winter. In fact, I spotted some of my hyacinths peeping out of the mulch! I think it’s supposed to cool off this week, but I’m not holding …
It’s a little early for another round of Would Your Rather, but everyone seems to like them so here we go! Remember that Roman calendar? Well, December would have been the 10th month. For those of you who took Latin, you’re shaking your head and thinking, “Yep, that makes sense.” For those of you who …
So, it wouldn’t be a 10 on the 10th if I didn’t talk about the weather, right? Let’s just say it’s been quite nice for November. We did have snow flurries on Halloween, but that isn’t unusual. All of the annuals are gone except for the ferns. I think I’m going to keep them and …
Once a blogger… A few weeks ago, I was at a ladies’ retreat for my church. I know I say it all the time, but I truly am not a church lady. It’s just hard to meet other women of a certain age when you move at another certain age. But, I digress. The retreat …
