Hey everyone , I’m Danyelle. Welcome to the wild, chaotic mess I call life.
We live on a ranch now, but not long ago, we were five people and a dog crammed into a god-forsaken camper with no water and no electricity. We spent three years like that…freezing in the winters, sweating through the summers, counting every dollar and praying nothing else would break.
And somehow… I wouldn’t take a single year of it back.
Because those years stripped us down to what matters. And now, even with land under our boots and animals in every direction, life still feels like a damn soap opera that got picked up for another season…whether we asked for it or not.
Here’s where we are now:
We’ve got horses, goats, chickens, and kids who eat like pigs. My husband and I are trying to stay alive and sane…not always in that order.
We’re completely broke, but the animals are fed, and the kids have dinner on the table.
My father-in-law is terminally ill, and we’re his caretakers now.
I’ve got Lupus, and most days it wins.
But the bills keep coming, the ranch doesn’t pause, the kids don’t rest and neither do I.
This blog Isn’t about happiness or living a perfect farm life. It’s just real life. The kind you survive, laugh through, cuss about, and keep showing up for.
The kind of life where every day is just another fucking experience.
So if you’re here for perfect, this ain’t it.
But if you’re here for the hard, the struggle, and the hilarious in-between…
Then welcome.
Welcome to my sometimes funny, sometimes sad, always real shit show of a life.
