I am so glad you’re here. Pull up a chair, let’s grab a coffee and talk a while.

I’m Christy - in the prime of midlife and living in the mountains of western North Carolina. I’m a nurse who’s heading back to school (30 years later!) in the fall of 2026, a mom to all boys and doing life with Scott, all while working a fulltime job and having too many irons in the fire already. He & I are raising our 6 month old black goldendoodle, Rubble, who has been given the title of CDO (“Chief Dirt Officer”). I’m learning to grow peonies, a few other random flowers, and a whole lot of blueberries. I usually have a coffee in hand and a book (or my Kindle) nearby; I believe both fresh mountain air, and a salty beach breeze does the mind and body good.

Here you might find a little something about family, faith, our adventures in the mountains and our dreams of one day living closer to the coast. We’ll share the small joys of everyday living - and we are glad you’re here.
