Me. I have been playing out blog posts in my head for months now. I am not sure how or why this new mind game in my life came to be, but for some reason, I kept feeling the urge to write. It may be because my seemingly boring life can be quite entertaining (at least it is in my mind-blogs), or maybe because I need to have a creative outlet. I think another reason is because I have been feeling a little too mediocre in life. I am not really good at anything these days. I used to be kind of good at riding horses, but I’m so far removed the horse world that I don’t even know what overpriced breeches are “in”. Do people still monogram their show shirt collars- because that was my JAM! I used to be really into fitness but motherhood and wifing has made it much more difficult to commit fully to the gym. So I guess I could try being good at something new, right? Even if I turn out to be mediocre at blogging, at least I’ll have a hobby. Regardless of the reason, I finally mustered up enough courage to tell my mind blog to STFU and put it into type. So here it is- Funky Town Mama- named adoringly after the cool city of Fort Worth, where we call home.

What to expect: Honestly, I have no clue. I think there will be A LOT of gangster motherhood stories, some marriage stories/advice/real talk, maybe some money talk (more on that later) and a WHOLE LOT OF MISC. Seriously, get ready for the miscellaneous part of my life. I also hope to get to spotlight some cool people and places here.

What not to expect: Don’t go searching for completed Pinterest projects, makeup tutorials (HA! Have you seen how I do my makeup), artsy product layouts or life changing recipes. My brother took all of the creative genes my parents had to give out, so you’re SOL if you’re looking for something hip and chic.

I am just here to share relatable stories and maybe some cool shit along the way. I’ll try to keep the cursing to a minimum but I want a free pass for shit. I need that noun, and you can’t take it away from me.

So hopefully, you’ll be able to relate to some of my random, sometime silly and sometimes serious, life stories. Leave a comment or something you want to read and maybe we can be blog besties.
