That last square (and space in the […]

Hi, I'm Measi

about
(a/k/a Melissa)

I'm turning 50 in 2025, and exploring this new decade of my life with a refocus on blogging about my life - marriage, parenthood, being owned by cats, Paganism, cross stitching, journaling, books, and letter writing... and probably some other stuff along the way. Nothing monetized here - just old-fashioned personal blogging.
