    • About Me

      I am seperated and a mom of 2. We live in NC and love it, we're right in the middle so we only have a 2 or 3 hr drive to the mountains or coast. . I live on a small farm out in the country and have goats and geese. As most people on this site, I have so much "crap" in my life, that it is all just overwhelming.
