me

Connie Lindsey

I have been married to my best friend for over 40 years and am mom to two grown sons. I have retired from teaching secondary English after 30+ years (hence the name Texas Schoolmarm). I miss being part of students’ lives, but I enjoy having more time for crafts, baking, and loving on my two grandchildren.

I blog about literacy, health and fitness, family, and crafting my path through retirement.  Blogging keeps me from drifting thoughtlessly through my days. It holds me accountable as a writer.

I have been craftomg for as long as I can remember, thanks to a mom who loved to create all sorts of handmade items and encouraged me to do the same.  I discovered rubber stamps and ink in 2005, and my passion has grown stronger with each passing year. I rarely go a full day without planning or working on a project!

Leave me a comment if you have any questions or thoughts about my posts. I look forward to hearing from you; writing is communicating, and I’m looking forward to our conversations!
