I chose effervescent as my screen name because I’m a pretty outgoing, “bubbly” sort of person that tries to (often struggling) stay positive. I live in a beautiful part of the US, in Southern CA with my family where my job is to take care of the needs of our two school-aged kids. School drop off and pickup add structure to my day and I’m lucky to be able to volunteer for school and extracurriculars often. I love to get exercise and create art (right now I’m mostly working with acrylic paint and collage), I look forward to making more meaningful friendships this year!
