Hey there, I'm Catherine. I'm a blogger, freelance writer, and fibre artist. I manage this blog, Point Nine Acres, from our almost-acre of land in southern Ontario, Canada (hence the name). I hold a degree in Environmental Science & Studies from Trent University, where I specialized in environmental communication. I am a chronic and mental illness warrior, having suffered from Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) for much of my life. Working from home allows me to prioritize wellness while sharing my knowledge with others.

 

 When I'm not reading, writing, knitting, crocheting, or gardening, and my husband Matthew isn't baking, woodworking, or fighting fires, we are usually adventuring with our dog, Guinness.  We love DIY projects, especially those that are eco- and budget-conscious. Saving the world and saving money, one project at a time! I can't wait to show you what we have been up to.
