Here goes nothing…

Hello! Thanks for stopping by! This is a very new adventure into the unknown for me so I can’t promise anything too exciting for a while until I get the hang of this thing.

I’ll give you a brief introduction and reason for starting this blog and then we will be off to whatever comes next. I started this lil’ gig because I have personally benefited greatly from information that others have posted on their blogs. I have been able to find out anywhere from natural treatments for an ear ache all the way to how to make my own barn doors. I love digging around to find cool stuff, new recipes, fitness tips, etc. So, hopefully this can benefit someone along the way. A little about me: My name is not Hanabananapants (though that would be funny), it’s Hannah! I have a background in public safety, the medical field, sales, customer service (retail and food), teaching, and several more (that’s enough for now lol). I am currently working the hardest job I have ever had the privilege of doing: being a mom.

I have had struggles with my health and some injuries in the past. I have been on a very long journey to getting back to feeling “healthy” or finding my new “normal”. It has very often been an uphill battle for me during this process. I have made some major lifestyle changes with diet and exercise and it has been my life saver. Obviously, I am not an MD so I can only tell you what has helped me and leave the rest of the choices you make in your own hands. What works for me may not work for you but at least you’re out here trying to find something that WILL work and for that I give you major props. The “diet and exercise” route is not the easiest path to take but I felt that being sick and miserable wasn’t easy either. So, I made that choice to stick to it and I’m grateful for the positive changes it has made in my life.

I love to cook and bake and try new recipes/types of food. I have had to learn all over again how to do it because I cook gluten free/plant based when I’m at home. Both of my children have a gluten issue as well so we are a GF family! I am always trying new, healthy snacks, foods, etc and I will be giving my thoughts on these as I try them (or, on the ones I have already). I’m also a total gadget nut! So, look for some random things I use (and love) or will be trying out along the way. Well, there it is. This is my journey to a better, healthier, happier life and I welcome anyone who’s down for following me through it. Here goes nothing…. 🙂
