Who I Am….
Hi, Y’all!
I’m Kathryn, but call me Kathi.
I’m a southern girl with a passion for traveling, wine, and healthy living.
I secretly play the piano when no one is listening.
I color-coordinate the clothes in my closet.
I make an awesome pecan pie with homemade pie crust.
I’ve recovered from an eating disorder and have survived starting over after two failed marriages.
I eloped this summer and am now married to the man of my dreams.
I’m on a mission to find the “happy” in life. I want to live each day to the fullest so that I may be the best daughter, sister, aunt, friend, wife and God-loving cat mom possible.
Why I Blog…
I blog to document my life.
As a child, I loved to write. I constantly wrote stories and taped them to my bedroom door. Writing still makes me happy, although now I mostly write as a way to later remember my life events.
I blog to help others.
After two divorces and recovering from an eating disorder, I’ve learned many things in my life. I’ve learned how to live on a budget and maintain a household by myself. I learned how to deal with loss. And after 20 years of struggling with an eating disorder, I’ve learned how to create a healthy lifestyle. A few years ago, I went back to school to earn my certification in holistic health. My hope is to help others who may be in similar situations. Us girls have to help each other, right?
I blog because it holds me accountable.
I need blogging in my life. Blogging inspires me to celebrate life and to appreciate all of the simple things that I would otherwise sometimes take for granted.
Why did I choose Miss Everchanging as the name for my blog?
I’m the first to admit that I struggle with change. I am extremely OCD and I feel more comfortable when I know what to expect. Unfortunately, life doesn’t work that way. Every time that I feel comfortable, something major in my life happens. I’ve realized that change has made me grow.
My outlook on life is much different these days. I embrace whatever challenges life throws my way because I know that I will survive. Because life is ever-changing.

Change cannot and will not happen overnight. But the intent to evolve will produce opportunities for growth. ~ Robin D. Hart.
