Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg dies at age 87. I didn’t expect that I would gasp like that when I read the headline, but here we are. My utmost respect, ma’am.
Feeling Cute

Last night, I slept with my hair in braids for the first time in years.
This morning, my new hairdo made me feel so retro-cute that I even did my makeup.
Shout-out to Rachel Maksy, one of my new favorite vintage sewing YouTubers, for the inspiration to try something different.
Also? The red hair and bolder lip makes me look even more like my late Memaw. Although, since I’m not a natural redhead, I don’t have to draw my eyebrows on like she did. 🙂

Happy Birthday!

My little squigglebug turned nine years old today.

On Saturday, we’ll have a Very Small Gathering to celebrate. Today, though, Connor opened his presents from us, and got to have Pollyeyes stuffed breadsticks for a special birthday dinner, and enjoyed an Oreo ice cream cake roll for dessert.
Nine. Wow.
The Face Of Boredom

This was Connor at lunch a couple weekends ago. Life just moves too slow for him — always thinking ahead to the next fun thing on the agenda.
Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day: August 2020
I took the following photos on Bloom Day, which is the 15th of the month — after which I realized that I’d (temporarily) lost my mojo for processing digital photos on my desktop computer, since I’m so accustomed to uploading them via my phone. Silly HEIC image format, throwing a wrench into the works…
At any rate, here they are… mostly so Future Me can remember what was in bloom in August 2020.
