About Me
Hey, thanks for popping by and taking the time to get to know about me.
Generally I describe myself as a wife, mother, Solopreneur and an amateur blogger but in reality, I am so much more.
I am…
I am a creative; an ‘arty-farty’ kind of person but not one with natural ability.
My mind is full of endless ideas and I have the passion to see them through but unlike some creative’s I have to endure blood, sweat and tears to get stuff done as it doesn’t always come naturally to me.
I’m a bit of an organiser; probably steering a little too much towards the OCD level.
I write lists to keep on top of things and then usually I do a list for ‘the’ list. I know, I know, I have a problem lol 🤣
Passionate
I am passionate for anything old from antiques, old buildings and British history.
To say I failed miserably in History at school and now revel in learning about it is an understatement.
I’m a bit of a Royalist and a Traditionalist at heart and although I can be very opinionated, especially if I believe in something, most of the time I will sit on the fence and see the whole picture.
Home and Family
I live in a beautiful 19th century country cottage on the outskirts of a quiet village in South Staffordshire with my husband, our two children, three dogs and two cats.
I also own a horse called Olly, who is an ex
May 2016
When I started this blog back in May 2016 I was in full-time employment as a PA to a Headteacher in a High School.
The majority of my five and half years there had been happy and enjoyable but then all that changed and I became very unhappy very quickly.
So, rather than wallow in self pity, I decided to change my career path.
An Equestrienne
I have been an equestrienne most of my life and although I have not always owned my own horse, I have spent years riding other people’s horses as well as worked at a riding school and a dressage yard.
When I decided to change my career I knew I wanted it to be within the equestrian industry but I wasn’t sure in the beginning in what capacity.
It was following a conversation at the stables with some friends, over coffee, that I was given the idea of becoming a saddler.
So, I got to work researching it and the rest they say is history.
The Blog
Originally, this blog was set up to document my journey in training to become a saddler, my new chosen career.
However, since it started the blog has evolved into a journal of everything about me, including the launch of my business, The Lady Saddler, and the incredible journey of getting my horse, Olly, back in September 2017. [Read more about this here]
So, with all that said and done, I do hope I haven’t bored you senseless.
