Let's cross off another goal...

    I’ve never been extremely into vanity, I’ve always wanted to take care of myself but never knew where to start! I don’t go to the nail salon, I don’t get my hair done, I don’t get my eyebrows waxed unless you count me doing that myself, I don’t exactly know what qualifies! 

 

Anyway, I told myself that this year I would learn how to use makeup (the right way) and do small things to remind myself that we all need a
little vanity every now and then! It was so important to me that I put it on my to do list! So I chose yesterday to learn!

 

10. Do your makeup more.. You WANT to learn how to do that highlighting shit everyone's talking about!

 

Let me just start by saying, there are SO many rules when it comes to makeup, lord Jesus! But at the end of the day I told myself that it couldn't be too much different than painting (which I do often!)Right? WRONG!

 

Although I've crossed it off my list, I want to continue learning! There are people(professionals, amateurs, etc) who consider this to be an art-form and I am all here for being creative, in any form!

 

These things may sound trivial to you, but this is my year of complete discovery.I want to find joy in the little things again and that starts with doing things I’ve never done before! 

 

So I’ll say it again, cheers to a fresh new, everything!

I still have much to learn!

Cookie Era!

Image
  Listen, I’m in my cookie era! Here’s what I did! I made a double batch, scooped them and placed them on parchment paper to keep them separated. Placed them in freezer bags and then froze the second batch. That way I have chemical free cookies ready to take out of the freezer whenever I want and bake fresh! This way I can bake 2 if I want instead of making up a whole batch.

My Manic...

Image
     I have been stressing myself out lately about perfection. I can’t share anything I do unless I know it’s perfect. It’s probably going to give me an ulcer.       I decided today that I didn’t need perfection.      It’s not about that. I mean I’ve always known that but I am so unbelievably hard on myself that I allowed those feelings to creep in and attack my inner peace!        I haven’t felt that manic in about a year! So it was definitely something that I had to take care of right away! I almost forgot that my manic was an emotional response to stress.          I was being unappreciative of my own strengths, too hard on my personal weaknesses and turning a blind eye to my mental state.       I called it quits yesterday and decided to do absolutely nothing all day to let my brain rest and recover from my own abuse. Until inspiration hit and I decided to DOODLE.  ...

Ditch Kitty!

Image
  It’s been awhile since I’ve had an update on my little rescued ditch kitty! Sirius is thriving! he came to me at 1.5 pounds soaking wet and he’s up to 7.5 pounds now! Which is perfectly in line for his age! He’s all up to date on his vaccinations and he doesn’t have to go back for another year! (Unless he needs to!) His personality can only be described as wildly unpredictable and entertaining! His favorite things are wet food, cucumbers and pull tabs from my almond milk and playing nonstop!
