The Basics

My name is Kelli McDaniel. I just turned twenty one over the summer and have just begun my senior year at the University of North Florida and life is good. Besides the fact that I am still unsure of the career path I want to follow when I graduate in the spring, but hey, I have 9 months so ill figure something out. Im trying to make some changes in my life this year. I want to give more and take less. I want to put myself in a place where I am able to thrive and grow. Im trying to make plans now that will impact my life and future positively.

  I lived eighteen years of my life in South Florida, Jupiter to be specific (the city not the planet,) but I am enjoying being a current Jacksonville resident. I work as an educational aide at the Disability Resource Center on campus and I love it! The people are amazing and I am learning a lot about myself and others in the process. I have the two most incredible and generous parents in the world, seriously I do, and I was lucky enough to have an older brother to always help guide and annoy me through life. I’ve always felt that he was always more of a left brain thinker, while I am more of a right. I always have been creative, random and intuitive. When I was a kid I claimed to be in the Civil War and provided my listeners with details from the gruesome battles. And if I wasn’t declaring to fight for in a war I was changing my name to Halloween, Easter, or whatever else popped into my brain at the moment because Kelli just never sat well with me.

 I’ve always been a fan of the holidays, especially Halloween. This blog will be dedicated to an inexpensive, DIY Halloween (and eventually other holidays) filled with crafts, recipes, reviews, and all other things scary and spooky that go bump in the night. If you are struggling to revamp your holidays this blog will provide the relief you are searching for!
