Hi y’all! My name is Ashley and I am a believer, wife, mom, friend, SPED educator, Bey-hive card carrying member and The Reluctant Rehabber. I am the owner of a beautiful 1970’s colonial home in the suburbs of Southern Maryland. I never intended on purchasing a home that needed TLC but this home has taught me what I need is often a million times better than what I thought I wanted. With the amazing skills of my jack-of-all house trades husband, this house has slowly transformed into a home full of laughter, tears (from the rehab projects) and peace. This page will mostly focus on my family’s journey to making this house our home while experiencing the ups and downs of rehabbing but you might also catch me talking about anything else I’m loving or navigating at the time. Whether you’re settling in or simply passing through this page, welcome! I am glad you’re here and I hope you’re able to connect to something on this page to remind you that you’re not alone.There’s a bunch of us experiencing things that require rehabbing and hopefully I am able to help you put words to the thoughts and feelings you’re having. Here’s to building our community, growing and learning.
