I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

OH OH - I did that too!

I had like XL overalls from The Gap that I wore when I did not want to be all buggy body clothes.

I had layers.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I still have overalls. Full length, not shorts. Oh, wait, I have one pair that the legs can zip off and become shorts.

hip deep in pie

I had overalls in the 90s. But rompers were a 80s Jr. High thing for me.

I had a kick ass black jumpsuit in '84-85. I'd still wear it if I could fit in it.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

The traps work really well, but don't put it out until after dark.

all the nice environmental sites said if there was a wasp/human intersection - KILL. They are not human friendly or pollinators. We trapped then sprayed and dug and sprayed

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

IF you were going to describe your decorating ethos in a few words, how would you?

Pet hair, piles of crap, stacks of books, coffee mugs.

in Target's clothes section today, I had a flashback to the very early 90s, high school. Could have easily recreated some outfits I had back the. Floral baby doll dresses, overalls, denim shirts over crew necks, even the damned full pants rompers.

I loved me some floral babydoll dresses, with stompy boots or cowboy boots. Total 90210, whatever season their freshman year of college was. And I kind of lived in denim or chambray shirts over a white crew-neck my sophomore year of college (which was, in fact, 1990-1991).

comfortable, easy, opps stuff, and cat hair

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Yellowjackets and wasps are different things. Anne, frankly, I'd hire an exterminator. My FiL was stung so many times he nearly died, trying to eradicate a yellowjacket nest. YJs are hornets, and much tougher and hard to get at than wasps.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

IF you were going to describe your decorating ethos in a few words, how would you?

Books, blankets, travel, quirky, cozy. And more books.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

IF you were going to describe your decorating ethos in a few words, how would you?

Indiana Jones' library. At least, that's what I aspire to. In reality, it's antique/vintage stuff covered with a fine patina of cat hair and clutter.
