Is it just me or did January speed by? With me JUST wrapping up this end of the month post shortly before dinner time here in eastern standard time.

Here in South Carolina we’ve see 19 degrees Farenheit to a balmy 65 degrees today and yes I’m wearing a tank to as I type this. I also put on lipstick to write this- sometimes I need that little extra motivation, as in lipstick makes me feel more put together, so yes, whatever helps keep my butt in the chair so I can write and research and put together a fun little digital collage for y’all.

Project of our lifetime- 1900s era Southern home that my husband is single-handlely doing most of the work on

UPDATE: Unfortunately, or as is the nature of LIFE- the Tears of Things interview series is off to a sloooowww start as uh, trying to track people down in their already full lives is a lot to answer interview questions has not yet happened... I’m hoping to get something published for February but we shall see. Especially since the people I have asked to interview are the types of amazing people who are already giving so generously of their time, monies, resources, and more.

If you know someone you think would be a good fit- justice minded peace loving kind radical types from artists to poets to midwives to community grief facilitators to doulas to farmers to chefs- feel free to email me!

Thank you for being here!
