Welcome to “The Life and Times of a Complete Nobody”

Hi, I’m Jacquie—an animal lover, lifelong fan of all things feathered and furry, and the curious voice behind this blog. Here, I share my life with Fly, my charmingly obsessed Border Collie, and my flock of rescued chickens with personalities as big as their “egg songs.”

This blog is all about life’s little joys and lessons: from animal care and mental health to budget-friendly cooking, gardening, and even basic car maintenance for everyday folks. It’s a mix of heartfelt stories, practical tips, and a bit of humour to lighten the load.

I’m a firm believer in making the most of what we have—whether it’s growing your own food, learning how to care for animals with love, or cooking tasty meals without breaking the bank. Each week, you’ll find a mix of advice, stories, and how-tos, all with an easy going approach. So, grab a cup of tea, get comfortable, and join me for some tips, laughs, and stories from my world!
