For the month of August, I read only romance novels. It was Read a Romance Month, and I’m always up for a challenge, even if it gags me. I promised a report on how I survived the month, so here it is.
Heads up, I didn’t die of boredom. My toes aren’t permanently curled and I’m not pregnant.

Barbie-mania is worldwide and everyone has an opinion about the new Barbie movie. I figured I needed to put my two cents worth into the mix because I was one of the very first Barbie doll owners. Barbie was created just for little Wimpy Girl, or so I thought back then. Don’t try to figure up how many years ago that was, just read: https://wimpygirl.com/wimpy-girl-barbie
It will be an exciting trip down memory lane.

There is nothing that bespeaks independence and sassiness like a pair of red shoes, and every woman should own at least one pair.
My mother always had several, and when she gave me my first pair of sylish red silk high heels, I became a beliver in the power of red shoes. But, according to Mama, there are rules that accompany the wearing of red shoes. To this day, I’ve never broken one of them. Find out my mom’s red shoe regs at: https://wimpygirl.com/red-shoes

I shudder every time I think about swimming in ocean water where there might be a shark. So Shark Week is not something I celebrate.
My fear of sharks all started when I was 8 years old and on vacation in Freeport, Texas, with my grandparents. I’m gonna tell you all about it at: https://wimpygirl.com/shark-week
And, if you are not as wimpy as me, enjoy Shark Week.

Remember the Disney princesses that we all wanted to be as kids? How do you think these twinkling fairy-tale girls would do in today’s world? I think not so well.
