The big announcement …

… I’m pregnant!

Sorry for the lack of posts this week, guys! I’ve been bursting with the news, but wanted to wait to tell you until after I’d see the doctor and been for bloodwork.

I’ve been writing nonstop, though, and over the next week I promise to get you caught up on what’s been going on with me and Darling Husband — and our little one on the way!

So far, we have only told our parents, siblings, and closest friends — and we don’t plan on telling anyone else until I reach the end of the first trimester at the end of November.

Since I am still in the very early stages, I know that traditionally, a blogger wouldn’t announce it this early. But since I don’t identify myself on this blog yet, I really want to share the details with you guys, as it all happens!

P.S. Huge disclaimer! If you are one of the few readers who also knows me in real life — this info is still top-secret!!!

P.P.S. Over the next few days, I’ll tell you the strange and fascinating details of having a daily low fever, bigger boobs (yes, already!) and Diet Coke withdrawal symptoms.

  4. Congratulations! Even though I don't know you in real life, reading your blog is one of the few highlights at my very boring day at work. I really enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to reading it in the coming months. 🙂

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m a writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 12-year-old son and a 10-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep them from taking over my life. Creating things helps.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time with her writing. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
