Our Messy Life is the work of a small group of women at a variety of stages in life. Together, we have dozens of life stories, thousands of experiences, and piles of knowledge about practical things. We know stuff. We will share it here.
​
Because we want to share our messy lives without harming loved ones, we don’t use our real names. Yet everything we write on these pages is true. If we are writing fiction, parody, or are prodding the nature of Truth in a post-postmodern world, we’ll let you know. If you see an ad here, we honestly endorse the product. All proceeds keep this website operating and (if we’re really lucky) support single moms and retired people.
