Blessings in disguise!


    I am forever in love with the way the the sunlight changes throughout the day. How the colors change and how the atmosphere literally shifts.

 

    Today after fighting going grocery shopping because I was supposed to do it yesterday and the tornado happened. (A slight inconvenience and it had me pissed!)

 

    Then driving home today, I realized how lucky I was to have not been out and about in a storm yesterday. How thankful I was that something stopped me from going at that exact moment and time. And how unbelievably blessed I am to have been able to witness the amazing sunset and rainbow on my way home. 

 

    God is so good. Something I never in a million years would have thought I’D be saying. You had to know me a few years ago to understand just how dark of a place I was in!

 

    Anyway, after grocery shopping, I flew into Qdoba (my favorite place as of late!)  came home, unloaded the goods and headed off to watch the rest of my nephews soccer game.

 

    I feel nothing but gratitude today for where I am! Life isn’t perfect but I can take pleasure in knowing that I’m not at all in the place I was before! 

 

    I hope you’re having an amazing hump day! 

 


XOXO

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!
