Welcome to House Gone Sane!

Have you ever had one of those days? Where nothing goes as smooth as it should be?

I know what it’s like to balance taking care of a house and family while keeping my sanity at a healthy level. Life is busy these days and there are a lot of challenges, but you can absolutely succeed!

About Me

Hi there, I’m Ellie!

Being a wife and mom & step mom of 4 kids total sure is busy, and I’ve had my fair share of dealing with craziness- especially due to random problems that always seem to come at the worst possible time.

My goal is to stay sane while taking care of our home and family, and I want to help other moms and expecting moms do the same.

I’ve had to teach myself how to stay balanced and keep things under control, (still learning sometimes 🙂 but I want to share my best tips and experiences, so you can avoid some of the stress I’ve had, or manage better with your current stressors (we can’t get rid of them all, unfortunately.)

From tips on saving money, to kids, babies, and pregnancy, I hope you find value in these posts.

If you have a chance, you can check out the posts that interest you. I’d love for you to join me on my journey of making home a little less crazy.

I wish you the best with your home and family. Happy reading!
