Hey there!

Hello there! Welcome to my page 🙂 My name is Caroline. I decided to start this in case there were people out there like me, who are busy just trying to keep in shape as well as take care of a wee little “farm”. I’m using quotation marks since we only have chickens (well technically were waiting on them to arrive) and a massive garden at the moment (currently in the works as I type this).

A little background: I grew up raising animals, everything from goats to chickens to horses and a pig. Since leaving home I have felt this odd emptiness and hated using the term “used to have” or “used to raise”. I got lost in the great maze of life and lost a part of me. I met my amazing handsome and smart boyfriend, Jake, who brought me back to my roots and back to Jamul, CA where I did most of my growing up.

Since moving in with him and his parents in July of 2017, we have renovated a free (yes free) fifth wheel trailer to live in on the property (like a tiny house). Now that we have our own little spot and our own little corner of the property we can now start doing the things that I have missed, like gardening and having livestock.

Along with having a love for “homesteading” I also have a love for CrossFit and some things fitness (except running, I’m still working on that). CrossFit promotes Paleo and other styles of healthy eating, so I thought “what the heck, combine growing your own healthy food in a blog with becoming fitter and faster”. So here I am, writing, and here you are reading. Enjoy!

**Disclaimer** I will occasionally use foul language and I am planning on raising some of our chickens for meat purposes, if you do not agree PLEASE do not harass me, I am just asking for you to respect my opinion as I respect yours. Thank you!!
