Life of a Renaissance Gal
These past couple of weeks has been filled with ups and downs. I hope you are well. I’ve been adjusting to my new normal and never got around to writing anything here. I am settling in and hopefully will be blogging at least as much as normal, if not a bit more. I am working…
A list of 20 things to do while social distancing. The CDC has recommended that we all remain home for an extended period of time. Here is a list of 20 things that we can do while stuck at home to entertain ourselves.
via Information is Beautiful Oh my! It feels like the world has turned upside down. I think this weekend will be a combination of creating and binge-watching TV. Hopefully, the weather is nice enough to spend some time outside and that we can all find toilet paper on the shelves soon! J.D. shares a good…
Watching… Dirty Dancing. This movie came up in conversation the other day. I was excited to discover it airing on TV (twice) this weekend. I would bet that I’ve probably seen this movie more than any other, with the possible exceptions of When Harry Met Sally and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. 30 plus years later,…
“My Shadow” from A Child’s Garden of Verses via Library of Congress Do you have big weekend plans? I’m having dental surgery today and suspect this weekend’s going to be a lazy one. http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/ds.07092/I’ve had much less interesting jobs. Science shows my morning pages are good for me. This might be a fun day adventure….
Watching… Derry Girls. I finished up The Circle and started Derry Girls this weekend. I’m loving it. It’s a dark comedy set in Northern Ireland during the 90’s. The soundtrack is great – lots of songs I haven’t heard in years. I recommend watching with the captioning turned on. It’s difficult to catch what they…
The New Ford Maverick, on Capitol Grounds via Library of Congress Do you have big weekend plans? The weather here is supposed to be pretty nice. I hope to get outside and get a jump start on my spring yard cleanup. Watch this if you need a good laugh. I’m excited about the Petersik’s…
Watching… The Circle. John and Sherry recommended this on their podcast. They gave the impression that even people that don’t like reality TV would like it. I’m on the fence. This Netflix series definitely falls heavily in the Reality TV category – something I’m not usually a fan of. It does pose some interesting questions…
Snow, Washington, D.C. via Library of Congress Do you have big weekend plans? I plan to put the finishing touches on my studio and get the rest of the house back in order. I will breathe a huge sigh of relief when that’s finished. Some workplace Cheer! The earning rate comparison between different jobs is…
Watching… Cheer. I kept hearing about this Netflix documentary about a competitive Cheer squad from Texas. I decided to check it out this weekend. I’m probably the exact opposite of someone that would be a cheerleader so it was kind of like watching a documentary about wild animals or something. It was a little stressful…
