Meet / Contact Vanessa

Well now … how to condense the sum of who I think I am? For a start, how about this:

  • Believer in Jesus
  • American
  • Woman (no assembly required!)
  • WifeWidow
  • Mother
  • America 1st Conservative

But I can tell you this much, set aside your preconceived notions of those things because I probably won’t fit your stereotypes.  Often we only really know how to define ourselves, or others, by the labels.  So these are my chosen labels.

In addition to the above:

  • Former Homeschool Mom (all done!)
  • Homebirth Mom
  • California Native (current IL resident)
  • Gardener
  • Reader
  • Tech Enthusiast
  • INFJ
  • Coffee Drinker
  • LOLCats Fan
  • Camaro Enthusiast (mostly ’67-’69)
  • Rock & Roll fan
  • Geek
  • Dork
  • Wannabe soap-balm-maker
  • Sometime smart-alec who laughs at her own lame jokes because no one else will
  • BronzeSilver medalist in the Foot-in-Mouth Games (I’m getting better!)
  • Often klutzy
  • Usually boring
  • Always listening to the thoughts inside my head.

Favorite Quotes

  • There’s no such thing as a chicken knife.
  • This too shall pass.

But wait there’s more!

I’ll let you know when I remember it.  😉

In the meantime, there’s my blog: Vanessence | Essentially Vanessa

        1. Dear, Sweet Minaxi, I write this knowing you will never see it, but I want to say that the world is a little darker, and slightly less pink, since you left us in 2018. I cannot believe it has been almost 5 years. You left such an impact on me, and probably everyone who knew you. I think of you so much, beautiful girl. Thank you for sharing your #pinkpositivelight while you could. Love you always, ~V~ ❤

    1. Thanks, Jen! I figured I’d go with Bronze, because Gold kind of implied that I was good/witty/not awkward at it. 😉

      Now I’m thinking I should have just gone with “Honorable Mention.”

  14. Check – check – check… Bwahahaha: Bronze medalist in foot in mouth games! Ahhh! ’67 – ’69 Camaro – one of the premiere American Muscle cars. But are you a fan because they’re simply that cool or because you bought one new? My dream car is still a ’69 Dodge Charger (Daytona: 426 Hemi with 0.29 Cd – What!), Oasis tan leather interior (red’s acceptable), custom white mother-of-pearl exterior with um-teen coats of lacquer; “Pegasus.” I’m glad to meet you!

    1. Oh goodness, you sound like so much fun! 😀

      No, I never had the pleasure or pride of actually owning a late 60s Camaro, it’s always been just a dream car because they are that cool. My husband always tells me I’m going to get whiplash when I see one go by while we’re out and about.

      You’re not the first girl I’ve known who had a thing for that Charger with the 426 Hemi! That beast can roar! But that white mother-of-pearl paint job, that’s what I want too! That is just too funny! 😀

      Pleasure to meet you, too! 😀
