Introducing Me!

Hello, everyone! My name is Danika, and welcome to my tumblr blog! I hope you enjoy your stay. I hope that I can make some like-minded friends on here, so please feel free to reach out!

💐I'm a 24-year-old aspiring homemaker!

💐I live with my partner of a year and a half and our two cats. We currently live in an apartment in the southwest, but hope to move into a home within the next few years!

💐I currently work as a librarian at a community college in our area while working through my master's degree in library sciences. I hope to work as a librarian in a school or with teenagers in a public library someday. Working with teens and helping them find the information they need is one of my biggest passions, since it's something I didn't grow up with.

💐Of course, I adore reading! Some of my favorites include the invisible life of Addie LaRue, Demon Copperhead, the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo, and the house in the cerulean sea. I've got a pretty broad range of taste, so feel free to ask for book recs! I've got a book in my head for everyone!

💐I grew up in a christian household, which has influenced my character in what I hope is a good way, although I am no longer actively religious. I consider myself agnostic. Why call myself cozyhestia then? To me, religion is often just modeling yourself after an archetype. Hestia calls to me as the goddess of the hearth and the home. She is someone that I strive to be like. I don't consider myself a follower of hers, nor do I really consider myself a Hellenic pagan. I just enjoy what she stands for and the feeling that she evokes!

💐I'm a lesbian, autistic, and strive to leave this world kinder than I left it. The outdoors are some of my favorite places to be, but now that the weather is getting a bit chillier, it's time to move indoors and craft away the next few months!

💐While my dream is to take care of my partner and our home, I recognize that is not the same for everyone.

Let's be friends! ❤️

Today is a sleepy day... Spouse and the two cats are napping on the couches, while I do some work at the computer (signing up for my final semester of Grad School!!!!!) and send emails for job interviews. Now I will power through the last ~19 rows of this blanket and watch a youtube documentary about a topic I know nothing about! Life is good so far this summer!

it’s okay if your future goals are like “still be alive then” and “find happiness” and “have a will to live”

when you see your little kitty walking toward you at a leisurely pace and say "hi baby!" bc you're excited to see her and she starts trotting a little bit faster 'cause she's excited to see you too. that's what life is all about i think

if you’re not paying attention to trees and how they sway in the wind then what are you even doing

I interview tomorrow for a community school coordinator position at a middle school near us! I’m super interested in the job. I bonded a lot with the coordinator at my old school this year and I feel like I would be great at it!

It’s basically helping families get the resources they need for their student to succeed (transportation, food, clothing, housing, all that jazz). I feel like I know a lot about what my city offers, since I used to be a public librarian, and apparently there’s a lot of data work which I geek out about often.

I dunno, it just feels like a great move for me if the school librarian thing doesn’t happen yet again. (And I wouldn’t have to make sub plans if I need to stay home from work with a sick kid, take someone to an appointment, or attend court in the future as a foster parent!)

It went fine. Nothing stellar! Turns out my expectations for the job weren’t quite aligned with what I’d actually be doing. Oh well!

I did get a call from the other school I was offered a job at for a librarian position that opened! The teacher I replaced actually went there and she has nothing but great things to say about it! Gonna go on Friday and try my HARDEST. PUHLEASE!!!!!!!!
