About Me

Hello, I'm Kaci.

I would describe myself as Aquarius, crafty, outgoing, spontaneous, funny, silly, loyal, and creative.

I love true crime and ghosts shows/movies/podcasts/books.

I am currently reading: The Gifts That Bind Us by Caroline O’Donoghue and just finished: All Our Hidden Gifts by the same author.

I love podcasts.

  • Favorite is Crime Junkie!!!! Followed by My Favorite Murder, Dateline, Criminal, Anatomy of Murder, Park Predators and newest I found called The Jefferson Fisher Podcast.

We have two cats we saved from the local Animal Control. Bella on 30 January, 2015. She is a Tortie! Daisy we saved on 21 July, 2022. She is a grey/white Tabby.


I'm from WA State. My favorite flower is the Tulip. I like the rain.
