Getting To Know The Blogger.

Many years ago in this little space of mine, I shared what I had then described as "interesting facts" about myself. Looking back, I'm not sure how interesting I was, just barely into my 20's with one child. Okay, I wasn't all that boring, but I admit, it was a little embarrasing to look back on. I figured it was time for an update of sorts. So if you're new to this blog and you have no clue who I am, perhaps this little list will help you get to know me better.

- I'll start with my name. Hello! I'm Kellie!

- I am the mama to 3 boys

- I am a Roman Catholic

- I have been writing on this little blog of mine since 2009

I am an amature photographer

- I am the owner of an Etsy shop (since 2010)

- I have suffered from severe rosacea since I was 18

 -I am a user of essential oils (this is my favorite company)

- I am a Whovian

- I prefer cloudy days over sunny days

- Next year, I will have been with my husband for half of my life! (feeling old people!)

- I looooove coffee

- I suffer from OCD

- I've struggled with my weight most of my adult life and I'm finding new inspiration for excepting myself the way I am

- On that note, I love to cook. (I think that's where my real problem lies....darn me and my magnificent kitchen abilities. lol)

- I was a vegetarian for 3 years

- Autumn is my favorite season

- I live in central North Carolina

- The mountains are my favorite place to be

- I could eat pizza everday

- Christmas and Halloween are my favorite holidays

- I love DIY projects

Okay, that is seriously all I could come up with for now. LAME.

If you feel so inclined to join me in a "Getting to know the blogger" post, please feel free to do so and then comment here and let me know you did! I would love to get to know some of you all as well.  

Have a great weekend everyone!

New Start.

With this new year brings new inspiration. This year marks 5 years since I started my blog (what?!) and I have been neglecting this space for quite some time now and really want to get back on with it. How I will manage to do this I'm not quite sure (three boys can be handful!), but alas I shall try. I would love to have you follow along with me! Thank you!
