Welcome ....

Welcome to Creating Calm Chaos. Here you will find a heartfelt blog that shares the life journey of a wife, mother, daughter, friend and Grammie, navigating the beautiful yet somewhat turbulent waters of family, caregiving and personal growth.

In this space, I reflect on the delicate balance of managing relationships of a daughter adjusting to life with a new baby, a granddaughter living overseas and a mother facing the challenges of dementia. Each day brings a new mix of chaos and calm, as I juggle the roles of caregiver, listener, guide and support for those I love, while silently wishing the UK wasn't so far away and finding ways to bridge the gap.

Through it all I find moments of joy, love and strength in the chaos, learning to embrace both the beautiful and the storms of life.

Join me as I explore the ups and downs of motherhood, grandparenting and caring for an ageing parent. Together, we'll explore the small victories, share the hard truths and find meaning in the every day moments that bind us.

This blog is for anyone navigating similar paths, balancing family dynamics and creating calm amidst the chaos of life.

Creating Calm Chaos is not about perfect solutions, but about embracing the mess and finding peace in the journey. Join me as I laught, cry and learn new things. I hope we are able to connect while we are on this crazy ride!
