Welcome to the Thunderdome.

This is it. This is my life.

This is my Thunderdome.

The good, the great, the bad, the bull shit and the holy shit that's so amazings!

Or I should say, this is my life in blog form.

This is my blog! WOOT! I'm doing it (again). I've thought long and hard about starting this wee habit up again and I think it's time. Yep. I had a blog a few years ago. But because of situations that I may (or may not) write about in the future, I deleted it. I thought about using the same title, but it just felt wrong. That was the past April. And there is no reason to rehash the past.

So I'm starting anew! Crash Bang Boom. Pretty much sums up my life, to be honest. First of all, I'm incredibly klumzy…to a degree in which my insurance company should be warned. And secondly, it pretty much defines how I fall into my life. I fell into my relationship with Brett with a bang, I crashed into motherhood, stumbled into a new career and truly, stumbling my way through my entire life. Crash bang boom. That's me.

This blog is about me, my life with Brett. It's about learning to be a step mother (and trying not to fuck that up! Dude, parenting is so hard). I'll write about shit I'm dealing with, about falling down and picking myself up again. It will be about suffering, dealing with my past, learning to grow emotionally, overcoming fear and feeling grief. But I'll highlight the beauty and joy of my life, the amazing epic adventures we go on, the brilliant ah-ha moments and the monster dogs I deal with along the way. There will be posts about my attempt to find some kind of balance between work, life, adventure and impact. There'll be posts that are hard to read, maybe a bit too TMI. But that is who I am. I am honest and will share my truth. This is my space to bare my soul in words to anyone who cares to read it. And hopefully whomever does read my blog, will find it relatable at times.

So yeah. Here it is.

My life, my blog. My Thunderdome.
