10 on the 10th: May 2023-Canned Questions
It is time for Marsha’s 10 on the 10th series where she presents us with 10 questions about a common theme and asks us to share our answers in blog post form or in the comments. This series is a wonderful way to share more information about ourselves and to learn interesting new things about others. Anyone is invited to join and answer the questions. It is a great way to start new conversations and make meaningful connections with new people. For May, Marsha has asked us 10 canned questions. Nope, not questions in a can. Not prefabricated generic questions either. Questions that inquire about our ability to do certain things…and in some…

Because I’m Here and I Can & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #650
Last weekend, I went to see Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret, the new movie based on Judy Blume’s 1970 award winning coming of age novel. It was a fantastic movie that made me laugh, cry, and wax nostalgic. If you are a woman of a certain age who grew up in America, then you probably know this novel and would really enjoy this film. I do love a story that pushes the boundaries of appropriate and apparently discussing our periods and our boobs and sexual desires was and still is highly inappropriate in our puritanical world. A world that seems okay with violence but not at all okay…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Sheer
Spring weather has been teasing me lately with a few gorgeous days sprinkled in between all the cold, dreary rain. It seems like the perfect season for showcasing Sheer things. You may be wondering why the cold rainy spring weather is the perfect time for sheer things. Well, I guess you have to keep on wondering because I don’t have any idea. I merely said that because I didn’t know what else to write. Frankly, it is still too cold for me to wear sheer, but I have always loved the sassiness of sheer garments. The kind that allow you to tastefully show off your pretty underthings. I don’t understand…
