She/her. Mom of two awesome humans. Wife of cute bearded guy. Slave to one unhinged cat. Books are my favorite form of escapism. Introvert, masquerading through the day as an extrovert. In my next life, I want to be a penguin.
Carnivorous plants are so bizarre. We give them light, water, and hope they're good little murderers while we go off to work.

Plant people understand.

If you, too, have been bullied by a housecat until you opened the window, you might be entitled to compensation.

Question of the Day:
This plant is over 5 feet tall.
How much money would it take for you to fully commit and jump into it?

Self care time. The repetitive movements of the yarn sliding over the hook are kinda soothing.
When life gives you the January from Hell, make a blanket.

I was gonna make soap today, but my oil blend hardened...in the container.

I am a problem solver. Haha.

SELF DIAGNOSED NERD:
I didn't know they were real. I am totally going to grow some.
They don't scream...but I can do that part. 😂

My coworker was complaining about being sick because his kids brought home the crud again. I said, Eventually, they stop bringing home every virus known to man. That's usually when they start dating, though. You go from being sick to being worried sick. Kind of a lateral move. Parenting is fun.

Contrary to popular belief, we cannot survive on caffeine alone.

We also need reese's cups.

Introverts have a "people meter." Working with the public, I've learned to moderate my people-ing so my meter lasts all day.
Every once in a while, I encounter a human that manages to drain my entire meter in one go. Then I spend the rest of the day frazzled and on edge. Drama? Zero stars, dude.
