My name is Teresa Brooks Quiner and I currently live in Corvallis Oregon. I made a goal last February to start a blog before a year had passed. I’m just squeaking in before my deadline. I was so afraid to start a blog because I didn’t know how. Then I joined my girls in starting a business called 7% Whimsy and I had to become proficient at blogging on our website 7percentwhimsy.com We started the blog in January and I have made roughly a post a week. I discovered blogging wasn’t so scary after all.

This is my beautiful family. I’m the one in the pink sweater. We had this photograph taken at Christmas 2014. We need a new family photo!

Then came the problem of finding a name for my blog. I had so many good ideas; unfortunately somebody else already had the same good idea. It took about a week of googling ideas before I found a name that I really liked, not just sorta’ liked.

Here I am  Zestfully Hanging On. It actually describes my life in a nutshell.

I’m working like crazy trying to enjoy my life and sometimes it gets so hard I’m holding on for all it’s worth.

I really couldn’t come up with a particular focus for my blog. I’m more than a little ADD and I can never settle on doing anything for very long. So expect a mishmash of ideas, photographs, recipes, artwork and so much more in this blog. To learn more about me check out my ‘About’ page.
