WOW

I feel like it is safe to say that I am TERRIBLE at this whole blog thing. Like AWEFUL. I am fine with that and I hope you are too!

I have written posts. I just haven’t published them. Life got busy. I never looked them over AAANNNND by the time that I did, they felt very dated. Maybe sometime in the future, they will make their way around to relivancy again. You know, like 90’s fashion has this year.

For the past year, I have just been annoyed at the whole social media thing. FB shut down my personal page, someone hijacked my Instagram and it was hard not to feel disenfranchised by all of social media, which was a terrible time to be disenfranchised, since I had started my etsy shop last November. When you are selling things, social media is a great tool, But the thought of starting all over again. Was. Exhausting. While online doing somethings for the shop I decided I needed to hop back into the pool. I started a new Instagram page. I started updating the Facebook page. I can’t just mope about forever without fixing what I was unhappy with right? of course not!

During my updating and copying and pasting links adventure, I of course came here. I read my old posts. Checked out what I had saved for future posts. Then I looked at my about me. WOW. I was a baby. My kids were babies! We have done so much. We have grown so much. I updated my about me, not changing all of it, but I just do not want to forget where I started. So I am copying it here, lest I never forget. This has been an amazing journey. One, that one day, I hope to be better at sharing with you than I am today. Here it is.

About Christy…. I have three little bacon bits and live in the state where Hell (the city) actually does freeze over. I have two dogs and a couple of chickens, some quail, a few bees, rabbits and I’m dreaming of an indoor aquaponics system. As a mom of three I am constantly trying to find ways to keep my children entertained while turning our forever house into a home.
To go in to more detail is more difficult. I am 34 years old and strive to end everyday being the best versions of me. I bought a house that I am slowly turning into something wonderful. It isn’t easy, I really don’t’ have any skills, but I am pretty good at winging it. I cook, I clean, I mother. I practice animal husbandry. When it is warm out I garden. I create. I am not what you would call an artist. I don’t use canvas and paint (I leave that up to my 11 year old) but I do make things because it is a wonderful escape.
I am looking forward to sharing my adventures. My life is pretty simple but it definitely isn’t boring!
