Finding truth in words, in rhymes, in notes.

I am a reader and a writer, a lover and a fighter, a talker and a thinker. I'm a marketing manager for SiriusXM. And I love well-thought turn of phrase.

I have NEVER received an “I Voted” sticker, so here is a selfie at my polling location in a patriotic scarf instead! Dan and I overheard a polling volunteer say that there have been midterms where our location counts less than 100 voters, and today has been over 500 already. She said today was probably even busier than 2016! Dan had a first-ever middle-aged voter on front of him on line. Everyone make sure you go engage in democracy! #vote #ivoted #midtermelections #resist #bluewave #yearofthewoman (at West Milford, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp21Vn7BWTMbZ4qydgreWpoHJrRTTE4zj9ANUU0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m3qjwd9ot8kx

Happy Howloweeb from the little lion girl who protects our household (from the couch) and the master who tames her (by screaming by her surprise barks)! Also, I dressed up as a gym ball machine, and this is probably the most creative costume I’ve ever had. • • • #halloween #happyhalloween #howl #howloween #trickortreat #dogsofinstagram #goldensofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BpnSWGHhtyu5kNxjuwHovYyy73ZpJuXR5CneYc0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=e1ixpamzj3ag

We finally made it to the Sussex County Sunflower Maze! 🌻😍 It was beautiful, but Attie was not having proper leash walking or participating well in taking pictures. 🤦🏻‍♀️ • • • #sunflower #sunflowerfield #sunflowermaze #sussexcountysunflowermaze #sussexcounty #nj #family #goldenretriever #goldensofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #furbaby #furmom #dogmom (at Sussex County Sunflower Maze) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnOPbi9FmK5lTKwebLY3rW7yQPvQjE9dgvPu3k0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=goj4y7sb6vlt
