Hi I am just a woman that loves her husband, kids and extended family. I have been married for almost 22 years to my hardworking husband. We have 4 children living at home and 2 that are out on their own with families of their own. My husband and I both work full time jobs. We take care of our family equally but definitely in very different ways. My husband works overtime and takes care of the maintenance of our cars, property, garden, house, and many many other things. While I homeschool our children, preserve our garden harvest, budget our money and take care of our home and whatever else may come up along the way.

My goal is to be a good steward of what we have. So saving money by budgeting, couponing, sale shopping and using apps is top on my list. I also preserve food through water bath canning, pressure canning, freezing and dehydrating as to not waste what we have. I love to bake and cook for my family. I don’t want to say I’m an amazing chef however I think I’m pretty good for a home taught cook. I am working on decluttering our home as after 22 years together and children we have accumulated quite a bit. I hold on to things for sentimental value more than for the usefulness of an item. Although I am learning to let go of items and just keep the memory. I’m not perfect in that aspect but I try!

My life is absolutely a bunch of different things going on at all times. . . that is what my life is “Organized Chaos”. Because to anyone else it would absolutely be chaos, but for me I have it organized just for me. No it doesn’t make sense to anyone else, but it works for me (at least most of the time). I hope I can share some of my organized chaos with you and maybe help someone along the way. And maybe I can learn from you as well.
