ABOUT ME

Hi! I’m Anne.

My two dreams in life have always been to train horses (check!) and to write (working on it). I got married young, divorced, remarried, and had three children, the most recent at age 42. And now here I am, living on a farm in the mountains of western North Carolina, navigating through the pandemonium of horses, chickens, dogs, cats, homeschooling, and caring for my elderly father. I really, really want to eat a plant-based diet, but every Monday is pizza night, if you get my drift. Also, I work out sort of fanatically because I’ve got to have that endorphine rush before I can face the day. Full disclosure: about half the time, I think I’m going to lose my mind.

This blog is a way to remind myself that we really do have it good. We don’t have to sink under the weight of our perceived burdens; we always have a choice to make our lives and the world around us a little more beautiful. What I share through this blog is my way of doing that. I hope it inspires you to do the same.
