BIG LIFE UPDATE:

I’ve decided to follow my dream and move to Antarctica to open the world’s first-ever Penguin Café.

It’s called “Waddle it Be?”

We specialize in ice-cold lattes, fish-shaped scones, and snowcones.

So, Waddle it Be? 🐧 ☕️ 🧊

I’m in this process right now as well. That and asking ChatGPT ‘what if’ questions. I’m researching for what may become my first historical fiction. We’ll see.

This was totally me as a child—I read the dictionary and thesaurus for fun! My love for them has only grown, and I still enjoy discovering obscure words. Now, words randomly pop into my head at all hours, and one of those late-night visitors inspired the MC name in my book Ishkabibble Unafraid. ❤️

Start 2025 with purpose and joy by choosing a “Word of the Year” (WOTY) instead of resolutions! Reflect, pick 1-5 words that excite you, and choose one that inspires your year ahead. My word is “Illuminate”—spreading love and light. What’s your word? Let’s shine together! #WOTY

My Christmas gift this year is extra special—a beautiful ASL “I Love You” necklace, just like the grandmas wear in my Grandmas Rock! book. I absolutely love it! ❤️🤟

According to Amazon Music, I’m in the top 7% of Bob Marley listeners—and I’m not surprised. His music has been my refuge on stressful days, a calming rhythm when anxiety runs high. Bob’s songs are always there, reminding me to take a breath and feel alright. 💜

About 24 hours ago, Glenn and I heard odd sounds, and suddenly a bird flew out of the kitchen! After many failed attempts to shoo it, we resumed today. Glenn guided it while I opened the door, and it flew out the moment it saw sunlight. I cheered as it left—it felt like a special visit from my dad.

Turned 50 over the weekend. Stayed in St Augustine in a darling VRBO with my family staying nearby. Ate the delicious local cuisine and then drove to Orlando for Medieval Times. A new decade welcomed well! 🥰
