Hey there! I’m Michelle, a 40-something introvert with a snarky sense of humor and a creative spirit. I often find myself brimming with big ideas, though I don’t always manage to see them through to the end. My love for collecting craft supplies knows no bounds, and I find joy in the little things, like a new book, a favorite song, or the company of my beloved cat, Beef.

I’m drawn to the vibrant colors of rainbows and the whimsical charm of unicorns. Office supplies are my guilty pleasure, and “Napoleon Dynamite” never fails to make me laugh. Green, in all its beautiful shades, is my favorite color, and Lemonheads are my go-to treat. My world revolves around my wonderful family—my husband, kids, and grandkids—who bring so much joy to my life.

This blog is my personal vision board where I plan to share my book reviews, fun discoveries from the internet, and yes, a fair share of complaints. I believe in the interconnectedness of past lives, the magic of soulmates, the presence of God, and the existence of ghosts. I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason, though I’m skeptical about Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster—surely they can’t be that elusive.

For me, profanity is an art form, and I sometimes speak my mind a bit too freely, especially when I’m irritated. Politically, I lean to the left and have a strong belief in equality for all. I’m unapologetically loud and bossy, prone to moments of craziness, and I’ve been told I can be alarmingly anti-social. Despite my quirks, I’m incredibly loyal and believe in giving people second chances, even though I can hold a grudge like nobody’s business.

My personality is a mix of contrasts—I can be manipulative, mean, and vulgar, yet I’m also capable of great kindness and generosity. My best qualities are often my worst, a fact that makes perfect sense to those who truly know me. Welcome to my quirky, colorful world, where creativity, honesty, and a bit of chaos reign supreme.
