I am a 40-something wife & fur mom. We are a retired USAF family & I'm a MH therapist. Alabama native; have spent most of my life in Louisiana ⚜ We have 4 pets- 2 cats & 2 dogs. Animal advocacy is also near/dear to my heart. I currently have a stray feral adult cat who lives in our garden & on the porch. One year in & she just let me touch her for the first time! ❤ 2020 & '21 have definitely taken their toll. On most of us, I believe. It's been a LONG two years.

I absolutely LOVE snail mail. It's definitely a highlight. My favorites are Christmas cards - it's the one thing I do almost annually.

I've got to spend some time figuring out things that I like, enjoy, etc & reconnecting with some hobbies. Our home has been in a state of remodel for these (almost) 2 years as well. Work from home, working as a therapist, a slew of health & hormonal issues..... it's been a wild ride since early 2020.
