Hi! Here's a little about me, just in case you've decided to follow me and you're curious.
- I'm pursuing a degree in psychology. I'm also middle aged. It's been hard, but I'm grateful for the experience.
- I'm an artist. I oil paint, water color, and also do wheel thrown ceramics. 🧵

Quiznos? Cosi? Subway? Jimmy John's? Jersey Mike's? Any sub shop I visit from this day forward will be judged not only on the taste & value of its sandwiches, but their weight, velocity, & stability of their wrapping.

Have you heard of glimmers? It's where you find little things that bring you a moment of joy. This world is freaking heavy lately. Let's take a moment together, to just breathe and reflect. Tell me about a glimmer you found recently. I'll share mine in the comments.

Anyone else have a quieter than usual evening last night? I normally don't celebrate the 4th as it is because I'm too busy trying to keep my dogs calm. But last night felt different. Just me?

Make no mistake:
Alligator Alcatraz IS a concentration camp, and they absolutely ARE planning genocide and ‘ethnic cleansing.’
As a white person, i don’t know what I can do to help, but if all I have is my voice, I will make sure it’s heard.

This came on the radio last night while driving with my oldest. We both agreed that it's sad and scary how commentary of the state of the world in the 80s still feels relevant to what's going on today. It's frustrating, really.

My gentle giant, Fezzik. I know that things feel very hard right now for a lot of us. I hope that this picture can bring you a moment of respite today.

I see I've gained new followers for being a loud mouth in comments. So, hi everyone. I don't post much personally. When I do, it's usually to try and combat a lot of the doom I'm feeling. Hence the pictures of nature, my garden, and my animals. At any rate, welcome. (1)

Went to the fantasy Faire today. I found a lovely booth there, filled with handmade clothing. I fell in love with this cute, quilted hat. These ladies were so sweet, and with my purchase, they threw in a gorgeous, cloth bag. I will be using said bag to gather produce in my garden soon! #WitchyFinds

Took a lovely walk around my favorite park/ nature preserve with my kiddo this afternoon. We spotted grackles (the bird) and some pretty wildflowers. The blue ones are called baby blue eyes, and the purple ones are called hairy vetch. #Witchywalks

A little stroll around my front yard garden this morning. There's lots of good things growing. I'm hoping the nasturtium and mustard will start popping up soon. I am very excited about sharing my bountiful harvest this season! #witchywalks #frontyardgarden
