About me

First of all, Hi :)


This is my first ever blog post on my first ever blog, so please forgive me.
I want to start off my introducing myself. My name will remain unknown and you shall know me as H.M.S. (I'm a closeted blogger [for now]).

I am from South Africa and grew up in a small country town with beautiful views, but that is about it. My parents didn't have the resources to send me to college or university, so as soon as I was finished with high school I started the search for a job. I don't know how difficult it is where you are from, but here if you don't have the correct appearance or qualifications it is extremely difficult to find any kind of work.

I was still dating my high school sweetheart by that time and he put in a good word for me with his work and so I started working there. I have been working here ever since. It has been really difficult as I received minimum wage, because I didn't have any work experience. Just moved in with my partner and struggled to get by on what we had. It's now 2 years later, we are a bit better of, but still struggling. I heard a statement that I relate to strongly : "I am just surviving and not living". I will be giving my resignation notice in a weeks time as I am done surviving and ready to start living. The atmosphere at work is toxic and the people in charge is corrupt and it has had a toll on my health.

But enough about that, we recently got engaged and it is the happiest I have been in almost ever. We still live in the same (very, very small) apartment with my two rescued cats, but it has been okay.

On my blog I will be sharing my experiences as a stay at home wife, interesting things about animals, some fun and healthy (or not) recipes and much more.

I hope that you will join me on my journey and please comment and email me with anything you would like to say or share.

Things you might not know about me

Things you might not know about me Howdy…Howdy… I’m working on my first cup of coffee this morning and I’ve decided to use today’s post to have a bit of fun… People oftentimes forget that business should be fun. So much of what’s written online today lacks any sense of personal connection. Most people are simply afraid to REALLY be themselves. So instead they try to act ‘professional’ and all of they’re writing comes out dry and dull. Or, even worse, they try to be like someone else – and they end up looking like a bad Elvis impersonator… The ‘bloated’ version with a lousy voice. Not pretty! So let’s put away the Elvis costume and bring out the real McCoy! Raw…Rebel…Quirky…and 100% human. So in order to prove that I’m not a robot that stays locked in a marketing laboratory all day, I’ve decided to share 10 of my own quirks, habits, and closely guarded secrets… 1. I have a HUGE Afrikaans family with a lot of crazy cousins. If you’ve ever seen the movie
