About Me

and while I am finding that as I age it is easier, that is, to know who I am and what I am leading. I often find myself slowly pulling together into something new, something with experience. I do know this however, I love my savior and am loved so much that it doesn't matter so much who I am but rather, whose I am.

My Interests

Interesting conversations, laughing, movies, good chai, good music, the first snows of the year, sunrises, quilting, love, friends, concerts, weird fruit, Jones, Roadtrips, jones roadtrips, cooking, doodling, reading non fiction, theology, bonfires, watching shooting stars, swinging on swings, sitting on the end of a dock with my feet dangling in the water, mango gelato, public speaking, hugs, perkins in the wee hours, cities, unexpected acoustic concerts, starting bands....crank radio, bad language, TCTR, blue light and the like, meeting neat people, and loving life.

I'd like to meet:

Anybody and everybody. Let's have a conversations and drink tea and make plans to be ordinary radicals.

Music:
