About me

Welcome to my blog, ROAR, the Ramblings Of A Redhead!

I’m Lorri and I’m your host for rambling, musings, observations and general nuttiness.

A little about me: I’m in my 50s and I've been married since 1993 to Mr. Malone. We're the parents of an adult, married son, which makes us empty nesters. We live in a modest little cottage in the southern part of Indiana (neighboring Louisville, Ky. is just across the Ohio River). We are Hoosiers through and through – there’s a cornfield across the road (not a street; a road) from our house and a basketball goal in the driveway … it doesn’t get any more Indiana than that, folks.

The view from our driveway.

And even though we can see (and smell) a working farm from our living room and live (and smell) about a block away from a horse farm, we are also part of a large suburban neighborhood. So we enjoy all the benefits of the country, the suburbs and a large metro close by.

I work full-time in the communications field (think, writer and editor). I love to hang with my family and our pets – a dog and cat – both rescues.  I enjoy baking, antiquing, flea markets and auctions, decorating, gardening, reading, napping and entertaining. I am blessed with good friends and we enjoy a big extended family.

I'm using this space to share a little about being at home with life at this age and this stage. Thanks for joining me at home.
