In my mid-thirties, I had seemingly everything Iâd ever wanted. I was married to a great guy and had four wonderful kids. And I was miserable. Amorphously, absolutely, and horribly miserable for no reason that I could really explain. All I knew was that I wanted more and needed more and that more was something indefinable and elusive. I felt like I needed to escape something, but I didnât know what. The utter confusion and feeling of being completely lost and not knowing why or how to fix it was too much to bear. So I turned to that ubiquitous social lubricant: alcohol. My alcohol consumption quickly became an addiction that spiraled completely out of control. I eventually spent 78 days in a residential treatment center for alcoholism. When I was in treatment, my counselors taught me many important things, but one that was crucial for me was that I needed to find my passion and pursue it! They didnât just say it was a good idea; they said that for me, it was mandatory if I wanted to stay sober. That advice led me to start my blog, One Good Thing by Jillee. Focusing on âone good thingâ a day helped me find real joy and a sense of purpose in my role as a homemaker, both of which I lacked as a young mom. That new-found sense of purpose helped me change my patterns of being the âperfectâ mother and âperfectâ homemaker. My quest for the unattainable in my former life nearly all but broke me and my family in two. I finally came to realize that my family wonât remember the crooked pictures on the wall, the less-than-fancy dinners, or the laundry that sat for a day or two. But they will remember how they felt in my home. Being a âHomemakerâ isnât just about âdoing housework,â as the dictionary definition says. So, I decided to redefine âhomemakerâ into a title I can truly embrace: âOne who practices the art of making a house a home, one good thing at a time.â I can't go back in time and stop the younger me from taking that first drink when life just got to be too much. But I can do my darnedest to make the work of homemaking easier for YOU. To give you the ability to enjoy more of your home and the people you made it for. During my Anniversary Sale, youâll get my limited edition âHomemakerâ magnet (pictured above) FREE with your purchase while supplies last!
