Hello, my friends, and welcome back to Mom-Day! I hung out at Mom's all day, eating pizza and working on a puzzle. It was exactly what we both needed, and a wonderful day. Thanks, Mom! I love you! Unfortunately, I lost all my outfit pictures - my camera's memory card gave up the ghost, so I'll be remedying that pretty quick. Fortunately, I'd taken some selfies for my Substack, so that's

Hello, my friends, and welcome back! We front-loaded all our weekend activity, so by early Saturday afternoon, we were done. First up is Friday's office outfit.

Welcome back, my friends! Some of you may have guessed that we were off to Powell River, BC, to visit L's mom...and you were right! I have lots to share - what I packed/wore, oodles of west coast scenery and Weird Things I Saw, plus what I bought when I went shopping, AND all the family we saw. Buckle up!

Welcome back to Mom-Day, Adventure Edition! Today, Mom and I returned to Elk Lake for a stroll, last visited here in June 2025.I'd gotten a very late start in the morning, so was later getting to Mom's. By the time we finished our walk it was after 2pm, so we went back to Mom's and split a frozen spinach pizza for lunch. An awesome day - and there are lots of pictures coming! I love you, Mom!&

Hello, my friends! It's been a hugely busy weekend, and we have a lot to get to, so forgive my brevity - let's go! Here's my Friday work outfit, incorporating another wearing of this massive leopard maxi skirt. I wanted to wear these shoes again, and I liked how they looked with the grey-ish blue. I hated these blue socks (they made a break for my toes almost immediately!) so I swapped

Hello, my friends and welcome back to Mom-Day! Mom decided that, since she's been doing all kinds of things with her house and her health, she deserved a little shopping pick-me-up. She found this lovely Indian cotton printed top at a boutique near her grocery store, and treated herself to this, some socks and another top. And then it was time to treat herself to some new shoes and a decent

Hello, and welcome back, my friends! It's been a lovely long weekend, and I'm anxious to enjoy what's left of it, so let's get going! Opening with a picture of the boys all floppy on the floor. The ball toy is whacked when they are displeased about something, in this case, probably that I won't play with them right this second. Friday: Unfortunately, my camera's memory card has a glitch
