Hi! This is me: happily retired teacher, quilt enthusiast, granny and mama of LBGTQ+ beloveds, gluten-free 😩, and a big fan of parks and trips. I’m also a blue dot in a red state.
So proud of my library!

I don’t really follow basketball, but as an Indiana-born girl, I think I’m contractually obligated to watch the Final Four…

I popped into the Golden Arches to get a soda today. They gave great service, I had a friendly interaction with an employee while I filled my drink, AND as I was leaving, the manager started shouting employee names, adding “you are doing a FANTASTIC job!!!”
I’m gonna go back to that McDs. 😊

I love Dec. 23. It is the relative calm between celebrating my best guy’s birthday, and the busyness of Christmas Eve. It’s my own, personal “all is calm, all is bright” day.

This may not look like much of a fire, but it is enough fire for me to sit and feel the warmth in my heart. 😊
