Hi! Amanda here. Welcome to my blog.
A little about me. I’m an engineer in the oil and gas industry and I’m a mom of three boys. I’ve been married for a decade and have spent half that time in the ‘burbs. The last five years have been a full of ups and downs for me. Between juggling regular house duties (cooking, cleaning, LAUNDRY) and the maintenance that comes with owning a home (spackle anyone?), I have become extremely anxious. Pile on top of that 3 kids and a husband and the regular tasks start to seem insurmountable, the big goals impossible. I find myself in reaction mode a lot of the time and I have decided I don’t want to be there anymore. I don’t want to let life/others/my-unconscious-thoughts... control my life, I want to be the owner of my life’s direction. I want to live on purpose.
Through this life journey, I have starting to create toolboxes for myself and this blog serves to document these for my kids so that they can have a further starting point.
