Hello but from over here this time, Iâm Sarah and this is my other baby Ivy!
Grew up in Tupelo, as did her parents and grandparents. She never really expected to leave and when she came home from college single and pregnant that coffin was well and truly nailed shut.
It took a few years before she was able to talk about more than custody weekends and diaper supplies with her ex, but she and Milo are close now and itâs almost always totally fine. One day her mom might even stop asking when theyâre going to get back together. Maybe. Probably not.
Her daughter Evangeline is nearly 10 now, and sheâs the light of her mamaâs life and doted on by an assortment of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and old people.
Owns and operates Watershed & Sons funeral home, just like she always expected to, and sheâs pretty damn good at it too. Mostly she handles the actual bodies side of things, but she does a bit of everything and always makes a point to speak to the family. Itâs a relationships business, and sheâs actually really good at dealing with grieving families.
Sheâs less good at dealing with not-grieving people, because she will validate every feeling you have and hates to push people when theyâre upset, so sheâs best for when you want to vent about the man what done you wrong and not when you want to consider what role you may have played in the whole thing. Thatâs important, we need those friends.
Very into the Death Positive movement, but Tupelo is still a tiny southern town and things are pretty traditional.
Probably due for a midlife crisis but honestly who has the time?
Wanted connections!
Mom Friends - Anyone with a kid in the 9-12 age range, or anyone who would probably be up for trading kids once in a while so people can get a damn night off would be excellent, please hit me up.
Book Club - Please let this single mom have friends who she doesnât have to talk about soccer schedules or whatever show disney is hyping at the moment. She needs to drink wine and read something recommended by Oprah once in a while.
Former Clients - Probably more of a thing to connect on than a thing to build a relationship on but if your character has lost someone in the last 8 years or so then Ivy probably was involved somehow.
