@melvincarter3 You did indeed! Next time, I suppose…!

[Jennifer Awes Freeman @AwesFreeman]

That’s me! 🤓 It’s always fun to see Mayor Carter out in the community. When he took this photo I had just seen him at the Penumbra Theater the week before!

If I bump into you at a local Saint Paul coffee shop and you show me the Saint Paul tattoo you got at a local Saint Paul tattoo shop, I’m buying you a cup of java.

That’s how it works. (Especially if “Saint” is fully spelled out.) #SaintPaul

[Jennifer Awes Freeman @AwesFreeman]

@melvincarter3 Thanks! And shout out to Brian Rea at Grand Ave Tattoo who did the tattoo!

It’s been a wild 12 months since I went to the ICU. So much has changed. It’s never easy to ask for help or donations but if if you have the means please give or share this post.

Thank you!

@loraineenlow Looks like you got a good haul too!

My 8-yr-old’s note to self, “school: bring these [Descendants book and box of Ritz] to school today. 😁 Be nice!” I guess it’s good to know yourself. 😂 I should do likewise…

[Jennifer Awes Freeman @AwesFreeman]

My 10 year old just asked me “what was it like living in the 1900s? …Funky?”
Yes, son. Yes, it was.
