Hey champions
I have been MIA for like 2 weeks but I am back and better than ever. I had a wonderful trip to go visit Sam in New Hampshire followed by the most needed camping trip in Big Sur. It was truly the most lovely few weeks.
I am just feeling so loved and so grateful for the people in my life. I saw so so many friends these past few weeks, and was lucky enough to do some of my favorite activities with my favorite people. I camped, I ran, I watched friends finish a marathon, I ate good food, I drank yummy wine, I traveled and I made strides towards going back to school!!
I am just so so thankful for my friends, my family, where I get to live, and all the lovely things I am lucky enough to do.
I have so much to share so let’s just get on into it. FOR YOU CONSIDERATION
FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
SONG OF THE WEEK
she would rather go BLIND than to see her man leave. like enough said.
miss Etta is so beyond talented and this performance is truly amazing. This song makes me think of Lala land when Sebastian is so shocked that Mia doesn’t really like jazz and then takes her to see a jazz band. I truly do not think you can listen to this song and not recognize the talent and the art that Etta is actively creating. I JUST LOVE HER <3
AFFIRMATION OF THE WEEK
✨TAKING A BREAK IS OK ✨
✨SAYING NO IS OK ✨
I am a chronic people pleaser and also a workaholic and also just a completely insane person who refuses to ever slow down. That being said, I am trying very hard recently to be intentional in taking a break, giving myself rest, and saying no when I need to.
I took some time off work for the first time in over 6 months and wowowowow did I need a break. I am feeling so refreshed and peaceful after spending time in nature and with my friends and family.
It is so so necessary to take breaks, and resting can be productive, it is not indicative of laziness.
That being said I am so happy to be back at work and have so many fun crafts planned for this week with my patients yay!!
FIT OF THE WEEK
I lowkey wore a lot of fun things this week but I think my favorite thing was Emmerson’s scarf that a borrowed. I never get to wear scarves because it’s so hot at home but it was chilly on the East coast and I scarfed it up.
HIGH LOW BUFFALO
(high = best of week, low = bummer of week, buffalo = random)
🙌🏻 could not possibly pick a high but some honorable mentions are seeing Sam, camping, seeing childhood friends, and letting myself rest.
⬇️ I rolled my ankle ☹
🦬 pet an alpaca
CRAFT OF THE WEEK
Sam taught me how to cross-stitch and I am stitching a little cat on my sweatshirt yay! I do not have a picture of it but trust it will be cute.
also have been so behind on my hoboichi but hope to share a weekly spread come next week.
PHOEBE FLICK OF THE WEEK
I do not have much else to say except that I am feeling just oh so grateful for the life I get to live. oh and also Sam and I filmed a podcast episode where we said absolutely nothing funny and none of it made sense so stay tuned for that.
Thank you all for tuning in see you next week divas.
