Happy Blogiversary to me!

Six years!  Can you believe it?  Well, some of my posts were so boring I made myself yawn.  Others were cool because they were filled with photos!  Makes up for the fact that I suck at writing.  Heh!

So,  I still have no theme and post whenever I feel like it...  but dammit, Blogger, I just can't quit you!   And I'm very thankful to those of you who come by and leave me comment love.  {HUGS}

Here's a link to a post from my first month of blogging.  Two things have changed.  

1.  I have a great relationship with my sister again!  Yes, we fought after our father died and didn't speak for years but with the birth of my grandson she and her husband came back into our lives and we've built a new relationship with them.  That makes me happy.  She's my only sibling and I love her.

2.  My toenails are painted a Sally Hansen color called 'Gone Grey'.  Hey, just like the roots of my hair! 

In other news...

Our phones/internet at home are working again!  Tech came a day early and was very nice.  The problem was fixed quickly and I called Verizon right away to tell them how happy I was with the visit. My husband and I were both pretty upset about our conversations with customer service prior to the service call and we were seriously considering going with another company.  The man who came out today is probably the main reason why I'm okay keeping things as they are.  Verizon should give him a raise or at least overtime so those of us who have a problem on a Friday don't have to stew for a long weekend over the horrors of corporate greed and outsourcing jobs to foreign countries.  Oh, don't even get me started on all that.... 

We have a special Democratic primary tomorrow to fill the seat of Senator Lautenberg, who died in June.   I'm voting for Cory Booker, the mayor of Newark.   

I'm currently reading 'The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane' by Katherine Howe.  It's about a woman in modern day who discovers she has a connection to Salem and the witch trials.  

Am patiently awaiting the release of Stephen King's sequel to The Shining.  Doctor Sleep comes out next month!

I need to find my creative muse.  She's run off again, probably sipping wine at a villa in Tuscany, the  elusive little bitch.  And here I am, wondering if turning my craft room into a spare bedroom might be a better use of the space.  One would have come in handy last weekend when hubby's cousin visited for 2 nights.  The couch was okay but a comfy little bed and bit of privacy would have been nicer.  

Oh, I don't know.  I have had a few fleeting moments of good thoughts about my small business lately and then I'm right back on my bed with one hand in the potato chip bag and the other changing channels to watch snippets of movies I've already seen dozens of times.  Hey, that raptor scene with the kids in the kitchen at the end of Jurassic Park is really intense though.   

I'll get out of my rut eventually and start creating again.  Maybe just booking an end of summer home party here at my house would be one way to get good energy going again.  

What helps get YOU motivated when you're stuck on something?  

Will be around to catch up on all your blogs soon.  Right now, I'm going to get a hot bath and treat my hair to some nice conditioner.   

Have a wonderful week, dear ones!
