Some call me a crone.

I’m just about OK calling myself that too. My hesitancy isn’t because I’m averse to aging. Rather, I can feel the weight of this next stage of life – both the responsibility and the freedom of the truthtelling required. Some days that feels like a lot and I pull back a little. Other days I’m all in.

(I hope to rewrite this page soon with ‘all in’ as the only state of being.)

Also…

    • I was born and raised in Kaukauna, Wisconsin, and now live in Fort Wayne, Indiana with my husband, Joel, in the historic home we restored.
    •  

    • FAMILY! Three grown-up children, one in-law, two grandchildren and three grand-dogs feel like a flurry of joy and love for us.

    • I’m writing my first memoir (and boldly stating it here to keep myself accountable so please ask me about it every time you see me.)
