Welcome

Hi, this is where I will post my fleeting thoughts, opinions, and observations on topics that I find interesting. They may be about parenting, friendship, crafting, but also about the current global or local political climate(s), health issues, writing or anything else. I am a trained historian, a traveler, an ex-pat, a mother of two, an honorary Kashmiri, and a woman (originally from Germany) who has just finished writing a (still unpublished) middle grade novel titled Becoming Brave: Marla in 7th Grade. Welcome and thanks for checking in!
