    October 6, 2025

    Inside My Racing Mind: Why I’m “All Over the Place” (And How I Make It Work) If you’ve been reading Sincere Scribbles for a while, you’ve probably noticed something about me:one week I’m fermenting sauerkraut, the next I’m talking alien spacecrafts, the next I’m planting elephant ears by a frog pond.

I binge Ancient Aliens and start connecting dots until three a.m. – and lately, the puzzle pieces have been flying together faster than a Tic-Tac over the Pacific. I’m no engineer or physicist. I’m a homesteader who grows her own food, runs a handmade skincare line from her kitchen, and happens to have a brain that refuses to shut up when something doesn’t make sense.And let’s be honest – if Haim Eshed, the retired head of Israel’s space program, says there’s…
