What am I up to... nowADAYS?

Doing

Surviving during continual pandemic times by:

  • Absolutely obsessing about trying to get chickens in the spring time.

  • Working on my second of zero waste sewing pattern, cuz I want it to exisit in the world and to my current knowledge the one I'm working on does not.

  • Volunteering at my son's school doing anything that doesn't involve direct contact with kids or money.

  • Dipping my toes back into coding with some mobile app development.

  • Working on my illustration, art and storytelling. Behind the scenes revamping my artist website to highlight my aim to tell stories.

  • Freelancing sporadically to help small business with anything web related.

  • Contemplating and researching possibly getting backyard chickens in springtime 2022. Writing a list of to dos and seeing if I can cross them off before February 2022.

  • Still slowly continuing to learn the ukulele. Need to get back in the habit of playing more than once a month.
