Who We Are?
About Us
Hello from the south! I’m Melinda and I am so happy that you have stumbled across my page. I’ve been married 30+ years to a Unicorn. We have 2 adult children, women. I love too many things to have just one blog niche! Follow along for DIY, renovations, gardening, horseback riding, camping, cruises, spirits and random Life.
I hope that I can inspire you to step out of your comfort zone! Sometimes, I fly by the seat of my pants and according to others, I fly a broom. I am no expert on anything, but that doesn’t stop me from tackling a project. I love to take Fugly to Fabulous, or better on a budget!
Extraordinary Experiences
I have always told my children to follow their gut! If you feel something is unsafe, don’t do it. If you have a bad feeling about someone, don’t ignore the feeling. If a random idea pops in your head, pay attention. When I say random, I mean your watching TV and all of a sudden you feel you need to call a specific person. Pause the TV and call that person. There will be a reason. Pay attention to the signs. God and Angels are always with you.
I was about 2 months pregnant wth my second child. It was 1994 and we ran Barrels every Friday night at a club show in the Summer. I was hoping to finish riding through the season. At this time in my life, I lived and breathed barrel racing. It was time to warm up my horse and my saddle was making a creaking noise. I got off several times and checked over my saddle to make sure everything looked ok. They called my name to come running. At the second barrel, something happened, and I flew off! I swear an angel caught me. If was like someone sat me down on the ground. Others said the same, that it looked as thou, I had been sat down on the ground. Of course, it scared my husband to death! The saddle noise was a warning! It didn’t make that noise after that night.
Our Core Values
God, Family and Being a nice person, cost nothing! A simple smile or thank you can literally change someone’s day.
