It's incredibly hard to talk about myself without being asked questions. If I don't cover something in particular that you would like to know, drop me a message on any of my social media or comment down below and I'll be happy to answer any questions you have.
About Me
I suppose I will start with the basics. My name is Bella; Coffee drinker, step-parent, farmer's girlfriend, homemaker, cook, and book reader. I also make weird voices and accents, and faces all day long. It makes life a bit more interesting.
I like to think of myself as a writer. I've written short stories, I used to have a diary I would write every detail of my day in, and I even once got half-way through writing a novel - then I deleted the file by accident and hated myself for weeks. I also think of myself as a writer as that's what I do; I write posts for this blog. I've been lucky enough to write a post or two for other bloggers too!
Being a farmer's wife - a pig-farmer's wife to be specific - means animals play a big part in my life. Just before writing this I was having a very nice cuddle with a piglet - please add this to your bucket list, you're missing out! - I've also raised a duck in our house, and manually hatched multiple chicks and ducklings. Bob - the house duck - is my baby; I had to break her out of her shell when she was too weak to hatch on her own, and the rest is history. She's adorable, and completely tame too! She photo-bombs quite a lot though haha!

I spend most of my time cleaning, tidying, cooking, and trying to organize our house so we have more space. Space is a big thing in our house; B is happier when he comes home to lots of clear space, and it means his children have loads of space to get all their toys out and play. I love cooking, I like seeing how things turn out, especially if it's a recipe I have never tried.
Books are life. I love reading, but it has to be fictional. I've never been very interested in things I don't find - funny enough - interesting. I could never read a History book, and I never read the books we were assigned at school. They never quite fit in with what I liked, and if I don't like something or find it interesting, there is no way on earth I will force myself to do it for myself. Life's too short to be doing things you find no gratification in doing. The first novel I ever read - and proceeded to read so many times I ruined the paperback copy I had - was Twilight. Yep, groan all you want, but after reading that at 13-14 I have never been without a book.
Curling up on the sofa with B under a blanket while it's pouring outside or even having a thunder-storm going on, and probably watching a Disney film, is my idea of perfection. It's the thought of being warm and safe in my home, instead of being caught outside in a rain-storm like I have been so many times before. And yes, I looked like a wet cat.
About The Blog
- Helpful - I want to help other's as much as I can.
- Informational - I suppose this comes under Helpful, but I'll give it it's own little paragraph so it doesn't feel left out!
- Inspiring - I'd like to think that some posts I have written - or will write in the future - will inspire at least one person. Whether that be to wear your favorite outfit, to start blogging yourself -let's collab if you do! - or to just live the life you really want to.
- Uplifting - Making myself and others feel better and spreading positive vibes is something that I have recently come to realize is extremely important for a healthy mindset.
- Something I want to remember - This is more of a personal one, but every now and then things happen that I would like to document and remember. I realize I could just write it down in a diary, or save it in a word document, but where's the fun in that? Helping other's going through the same situation is what I want to do by sharing these more personal posts.
I have a few post topics - some might even say too many - but they all come under Lifestyle.That's what I am, a Lifestyle Blog. I write about the good - and the bad - of living as a housewife, having a young and "blended" family, and making our house into a home. Here is a list of my categories:
- Family Life
- Homemaking
- Housewife Life
- Beauty & Fashion
- Farm Life
- Health
- Uncategorized
Thank you so much for dropping by,
Bella xx
