Dogs, Divorce, and Driving a House: My Midlife Plot Twist

Welcome to Brave Roads & Messy Days—my unapologetically real chronicle of my midlife plot twists, RV living, lupus struggles, divorce recovery, and two unruly dogs who think they own the trailer.

This is where I share:

  • 🚐 RV Life Unfiltered – From setting up sway bars to hotel horror stories, breakdown checklists, swamp cooler experiments, and all the “oops, didn’t see that coming” moments of life on the road.

  • 🐾 Adventures with Odin & Freya – My dogs fresh out of “prison camp” (aka bootcamp training) who now guard the RV from raccoons, hotel roaches, and anything that moves after dark.

  • 💪 Life with Lupus – The messy reality of pushing through chronic illness, fatigue, and pain while still chasing sunsets, adventures, and my stubborn streak of independence.

  • 💔 Divorce, Healing & Humor – Navigating heartbreak, missing my cats, rebuilding from scratch, and finding strength (and sarcasm) in the chaos.

  • 🎮 Gamer on the Go – Because even while living in an RV, battling lupus flares, and wrangling dogs, I still log into my favorite games—proving life can be messy and magical.

  • 💖 Sharing What I Love – Along the way, I’ll recommend products that truly make this wild RV life easier, cozier, or just more fun. When you support those, you’re also helping me fuel the adventures, keep the dogs spoiled, and maybe even grab the occasional latte. ☕🐾

Through every post, you’ll find lessons I’ve learned, mistakes I’ve laughed (and cried) through, and the reminder that while the roads may be brave and the days messy, the journey is always worth it.
