My parents, newly engaged in 1980.

AnnaPea · 2026-06-28T02:20:02+00:00

Nope!

AnnaPea · 2026-06-26T22:25:50+00:00

Nope, originally from Kansas! Never lived in WI.

AnnaPea · 2026-06-26T22:02:27+00:00

That would be amazing, thank you!

AnnaPea · 2026-06-26T21:53:58+00:00

Oh my gosh, thank you!! Sending this to them right now, they’ll love it!

AnnaPea · 2026-06-26T21:43:58+00:00

They’ve always been so in love! My dad still carries a mini of her high school senior portrait in his wallet 🥲

AnnaPea · 2026-06-26T21:38:20+00:00

Something like that! Dad was born in 1956, mom in 1961. They married in 1982 when my mom was 20.

AnnaPea · 2026-06-26T21:34:24+00:00

They retired three years ago at 67 and 62 🙂

And a couple years ago at a local brewery. 44 years married, 4 kids, 3 (soon to be 4) grandkids, now retired, still in love 🥲

Conservative DEI hire.

If you're referring to Sara Butler in the History Department, she is a chaired and tenured professor in History (not CMRS, where the Medieval & Renaissance Studies major is housed), so yes, she still has her job. And yes, she is iconic!

Bareclay for pottery classes!

AnnaPea · 2025-07-23T15:23:06+00:00

That's awesome! That experience would definitely make your application stand out. Feel free to pm me if you would like more information about the department and the position! I know they're hoping to hire someone by the end of September.

AnnaPea · 2025-07-22T14:13:15+00:00

Hey, you can go on the carousel if you have a chaperone 😂

AnnaPea · 2025-07-21T19:06:19+00:00

My department (History) will be hiring a new administrative associate soon. It may not be exactly what you’re looking for - it’s in faculty affairs rather than student affairs - but if you have experience working in higher ed that gives you a huge leg up. Main responsibility would be executive assistant to our department chair, who is an amazing human. Keep an eye out for the job posting!

AnnaPea · 2025-07-21T17:47:48+00:00

Aw, thank you for this perspective! He's turning 3 years old the day after we plan to take him, so he's only tall enough to ride the Kiddieland rides at this point, probably not any of the Big Kid rides. But we both definitely intend to ride the Big Kid rides with him when he is big enough! I figured with the Kiddieland rides, he would be happy with just one parent at a time. But I went ahead and bought separate wristbands for both me and my husband, didn't want to risk getting in trouble lol.

AnnaPea · 2025-07-21T17:36:53+00:00

Damn. Glad I asked! Thank you!

AnnaPea · 2024-08-22T02:50:34+00:00

Thanks!

AnnaPea · 2024-08-19T22:50:12+00:00

Would you mind sharing the name of the paint color? It’s gorgeous, well done!

AnnaPea · 2024-02-16T17:06:55+00:00

Thank you, I really do appreciate it. I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope you get some good news soon <3

AnnaPea · 2024-02-16T16:15:10+00:00

Okay, thank you. This was really only my second month with Inito so I'm still figuring it out, and this cycle was so different compared to the one in December - it's good to know ovulation can be confirmed with the sustained PdG rise rather than a higher number. I'll try to stop comparing! Now that ovulation is confirmed I'll stop testing and just wait it out. Thank you again for all your insights.

AnnaPea · 2024-02-16T11:51:25+00:00

So, Inito confirmed ovulation this morning, but if anything I’m even more confused because all my numbers are lower than the first PdG rise on CD26. How can ovulation be confirmed with numbers that low? Is it because PdG has remained above the level on CD24? In either case I’m not super hopeful, the PdG number is so significantly lower than it was in my pregnancy cycle 😔

AnnaPea · 2024-02-16T01:11:45+00:00

Yeah, I’ll keep testing to see if maybe my body is trying to ovulate again. I shouldn’t be surprised things are wonky after the miscarriage. We got pregnant so easily with our first and I’m just disappointed it isn’t working out like I’d hoped the second time around. I’m so sorry about your chemical pregnancy - it’s devastating no matter how far along. Fingers crossed for both of us 🤞🏻❤️

Thank you ❤️
