Some days, the bravest things you can do is say hello -Rachel Wolchin

Hello and welcome to my little corner of the internet! My name is Caroline. I am a 35 year old mother, wife, sister, daughter and teacher. I am also an avid reader {when I can squeeze it in during the chaos of my life} coffee and wine imbiber, and a complete blogging novice over here. Well not complete, I did try my hand at blogging a few years ago but realized that I hadn’t chose wisely in my niche for it and failed for many reasons {more to come on that later}. I have bounced back and forth between NYC and Charlotte, NC most of my life with a few short lived, but amazing college years spent in Boston, MA. I like to think I’m crafty, but usually get about half way through a project and start to question my commitment and sanity for starting it. I am not always creative in my thinking, but do love to try what others have done before me and improve on it or add my own twist to it if I can. Usually, I fail, but I like to try to keep a fail up mentality if I can! After all, you only have one life to live, and its gotta be worth living.

I’ve considered {re}starting this blog for a few years now, but life has just been in the way. The past four years has been a blur of life changes, both expected and unexpected, which have resulted in the greatest blessing of my life {my daughter, referred to here as The Munch, Munchie, and ever so lovingly the Toddler Beastie}, the selling of our townhouse, a move to NYC, and most recently the relocation back to and purchasing of our new home back in Charlotte, NC. The purpose for this one is of a general nature here- anything and everything will go! I live for Amazon clothes, love to review books, share activities for my Little, and dabble in no expert way with home decor. Consider this my catch all for the things that I enjoy in life while allowing me to return to a passion of writing as a way of expressing my thoughts and feelings. And don’t we all have so many in this time of Covid-19.

My husband and I are just two people, living our lives to the best we can manage, usually stressed about something, definitely in over our heads on many things, and trying to remember to laugh often, love daily, and be the best examples we can be for our Little while creating our imperfect, yet perfect-for-us life. So welcome to our rambling life. I hope you find some joy, some laughs, some inspiration, and most importantly someone who you can relate to on some level through this little blogging experience of mine. If you like what you see here, feel free to come over to Instagram and follow me @This.Rambling.Life too!

Talk to you soon,

Caroline
