About Me

Hey there! I'm Kristina—mom of three, stepmom of three, and currently navigating that wild territory of "what comes next?" at 49. After 22 years of motherhood, with my youngest about to graduate high school, I'm discovering who I am beyond the beautiful chaos of raising kids. My house has gone from a revolving door of teenagers, sports equipment, and endless laundry to... well, a place where the kitchen actually stays clean (most days).

I'm not going to sugarcoat it—life has thrown me some curveballs. I've made a thousand mistakes along the way, learned some hard lessons, and discovered that survival mode isn't the same as actually living.

Now I'm here, writing my way through this next chapter because, honestly, I don't know what else to do with all these stories rattling around in my head. Maybe blogging is totally dated (probably), maybe I'm too old for this (definitely possible), but maybe—just maybe—sharing the unscripted moments of my life will help someone else feel a little less alone in theirs.

I believe in the power of honest storytelling, the healing that comes from being truly seen, and the strength we find when we stop pretending we have it all figured out. Welcome to my corner of the internet, where real is better than perfect, and every story matters—including yours.
