My happy place
Sewing gets me in that flow state. I love handling fabric - all the different textures and colors. I love matching fabric to patterns. I love to make a well-fitting garment. I also sew quilts. These make people happy which makes me happy.

Best way to get me excited about something
Tell me about good test scores in Haiti or having success getting Kreyol books into a library. That will keep me happy for a month. Ask me to create with you using my imagination.

How I relax
I walk or swim. If at home being chill I read something mildly interesting but not scintillating - assuming I am trying to get to sleep. I need something to occupy my mind while it shuts down, Books like the "History of Salt". Or I memorize mildly useful stuff like all the stops on the El in Chicago.

Things I'd love to learn
I would like to learn Haitian Kreyol since I am a fan of Haiti and Spanish because I live in a Spanish neighborhood. Unfortunately, I have not done too well. It seems as possible as teaching a cat to juggle.
