Weight Watchers
Weight Watchers…just writing it down makes me cringe. I’m four for zero for joining WW. Joined in the 80s, 90s, and I *think* 2000. At my best I lost 10 pounds. At my worst I went for weeks without losing…
…and I’m in The Washington Post!

Sightseeing in D.C. with Kid, Preteen, and Teen
Taking pics at the foot of the Jefferson statue. And, three a kid, a preteen, and a teen posing with Eleanor Roosevelt. In her day all three would have been silent children…ahhh the good old days! Snapping pics on the…
Musings on Laundry
I posted on Electrolux’s new Eco-Friendly Washer and Dryer, which I would love to win! Don’t forget to plant a flower for a friend. I planted a purple flower with a purple butterfly for a friend who is very earth-conscious…
