Welcome To "A Few Things"
Welcome to A Few Things---
Before we get started I thought I would let you know a little about myself and what led to the creation of A Few Things.
My name is Kristi Hinkle--I am 44 years young. I have four beautiful children. Brittany (21), Shelby (17), Justin (16) and our little surprise--Conner (8). I have been married to my husband for 20 years--yes if you do the math--I became a mother before I became a wife. I went from living in Long Beach, CA to Atlanta, GA to Lincoln NE to a very, very....v.e.r.y small town in South Dakota. Not only that--I married into a farm family. As a new young mom I can tell you small town, farm, cattle, and constant adjustments to life in general put me in quite a culture shock.
I am a small seasonal business owner--I am also an International State Coordinator part time--that can sometimes turn into a full time job. I love to travel and am just starting to begin courses on becoming a travel agent.
A Few Things was created in January of 2018 as a Facebook blog. When you choose to live in a small town you learn to deal with the talk. I had heard A LOT of talk and misunderstandings about me and decided that it was time to put some rumors to rest and introduce who I really am. Did it actually put rumors to rest? I am not sure. I felt I didn't have a voice and I used Facebook as my outlet.
Throughout this process I had many of my friends message me on Facebook, text me or walk up to me at events and they encouraged me to turn this into a blog. So here we are.
My goals for this blog is just to share and encourage. I will never get political or talk religion on this blog. Those are hot button topics that are already saturating our news feeds. I plan to just talk about life and hopefully you walk away feeling like you are not alone. I am that stressed out mom--I am that overwhelmed wife and I am that woman that wakes up everyday hoping I am doing everything right.
I will post every Wednesday--I hope you join me.
