Nellie Morris has discovered that the life of a single mom can be busy and chaotic and amazing, all at the same time. She is always in simultaneous need of a coffee and a nap, but keeps moving forward anyway. She has spent the past decade or so contemplating what she wants to be when her kids grow-up, but clearly its time to stop waiting and daydreaming, and just start…

And yes, it is hypothetically possible that, maybe, her name isn’t really Nellie. On blogs, and in life, people’s stories intersect. Some stories belong just to the person telling them, but often pieces of the story belong to someone else and in order to honour the people whose lives have intertwined into shared stories, the person writing this blog has chosen a new name – one that blends the old with the new, brings honour to memories and joy to her heart…

If you happen to figure out who Nellie really is, feel free to ask why she chose the name she did. Its a good story, and true to her own authentic and generally transparent nature, she’ll happily tell it to you. Why not send her an email at waitingnotnellie@gmail.com and ask!
