This is a pair of really killer shoes that I sometimes forget that I own.
I got them on a deep discount while shopping for another pair of shoes on the Hades Footwear website during the pandemic. I had ordered a different pair of shoes that took about a year from the time I ordered them to the time they arrived (but that’s a different shoe story.) Anyway, they gave me a discount code (among other things, very good customer service at Hades!) and I was perusing the site and see these which were already in the sales bin. I’ve...

Last year I wanted to post a weekly solo acoustic video of all my unrecorded songs. My idea is that when people hear me live, there are often songs they like, but there’s no way to hear them again without seeing me live. My plan for this last year was to simply do one each week. Like my clothing goal, that wasn’t a good enough plan.
The second fly in the ointment was that as soon as I posted the first video, someone pointed out the vocals weren’t clear enough. Fair point. So I then spent a bunch of time...

Yesterday I wrote a post about how I’m going to achieve my goal of wearing everything in my closet, and I mentioned that as part of my plan to achieve that goal I’ve taken inventory of what resides there.

The clothes in my closet fall into a handful of categories. LBDs, Crocket & Tubbs, metal T-shirts, Rocker Barbie, Kyla actually wanted to be a dancer.
We’ll start with the Little Black Dresses. Unless I missed something in the laundry, I have...

It’s a New Year and of course time for resolutions and goal setting and excitement for the year ahead. I spent a lot of time in December considering failed 2023 goals and determining if they were worth having another go at, and if so, what went wrong and how can we do better this year. Last year I resolved to wear everything in my closet. I wanted to take lots of fashion plate pictures as I went through the year putting every single thing in my closet on my body. I had a secondary plan to get rid of anything...

It’s Halloween today. I like dressing up, so you’d think I’d make a bigger deal out of Halloween than I do. (Mostly I just like shopping after halloween for deals! ) But if you invite me to a party, I’ll come up with a costume. Anyway, here’s some costumes I’ve thrown together over the years. First up, Xena Warrior Princess. I wanted to go as Red Sonja that year, but I did a quick survey of my friends in Quebec and determined most people wouldn’t know who that was, so Xena won. (Which is good, cuz I don’t need a...
