Life update?

Honestly not too much to update, my life is pretty much the same 😅 my sweet puppy is almost a year old, I still love my job and getting to work from home and I’m content. I never realized how much of a home body I would become but I’ve finally built a life that I’m so happy and content in. Cheesy I know but it’s nice, I’m happy I’m loved and I love my family and home. I still have waaaaay too many crafts tho 😂

And ever since that first instant my heart felt love unfurl its petals when it first felt you, I decided to love you with the most innocent surrender and the sweetest of devotion. To shelter you in the sanctuary of my arms and write you in the eternity of my eyes. To gift you with the heaven in my heart and the garden of my soul. To hold you close like a sacred prayer uncesasingly recited by every wave in the sea of my mind. To bless you with the best of me and make your name a forever kiss in the infinite horizon of my memory. 

e.v.e.

Congratulations!! Do you have any pictures to share??!

Honestly most of the pictures are blurry cause I’m constantly laughing 😂 I wouldn’t have it any other way. This man can put a smile on my face no matter ❤️

Also for a dress I ordered off the internet it turned out pretty good 😂

Elopement!! Crazy!

Yeah but it was absolutely perfect. Zero stress, zero drama (well at the time, some family members are being a bit dramatic they weren’t there) but really just a perfect day completely about me and my husband and our promises to share our lives together. I can forever look back on it and know that it wasn’t about anything else but each other and I love that. I felt special and beautiful and all the amazing feelings without any stress or overwhelm . I love that for us ❤️ we’re still gonna have a reception type party for all the family and friends that wanna come so they aren’t left out but it was wonderful to have the ceremony be just for us. Also because I hate talking in front of crowds and we’re both pretty anti social 😂 it was also +33 so it being a short and sweet ceremony was even better cause it was too damn hot.

Honestly I never thought I would get a happy ending, after all the pain I’ve been through I never thought I’d get to a place of such joy and love, with everything I’ve ever wanted. My heart is overwhelmed and overjoyed and I just wish I could go back to myself when I was in my deepest pain and let her know that it gets better.

Did you close your shop?? how is the wedding planning going as well?

I closed my website m, cause we got a puppy and trying to train her, keep up with the shop and work and my toddler was just overwhelming me. I still have my Etsy shop open, just has a lot less on it. And great! We’re eloping in less than a month 🥰

Life update?

There’s not a whole lot going on. I got my dream job, one that allows me to work from home so I’m more available for the kiddos and less burnt out and overall feeling better. I got an official ADHD diagnosis and I’m trying to get my son one so he can have some support when he starts schooling. Other than that, we’re planning out elopement (I’m not on great terms with most of my family and we’d rather it be just us) and that’s about it right now 😅 other than me constantly finding new crafts I want to try. On the plus side I made a Facebook group of like minded people to trade craft supplies with instead of spending money and having old crafts go to waste so that’s something!

How are you doing? Any wedding plans?

Planning isn’t my strong suit 😅 I tend more towards the just doing as soon as I think of it. I have some vague ideas that I want to do, but I find it so hard to plan for something so far into the future when life is constantly throwing me curveballs y’know? I’d love to have a wedding where friends and family all just go camping one weekend somewhere in the mountains and we find a nice meadow and throw a wedding in. I don’t want anything extravagant or over the top. All I know for absolutely sure is I want mountains involved 😂

saying "i adore your mind and way of thinking" is like touching the texture of another one's naked being. it's way more deeper and intimitate than physical touchs. you travel into the mind of another soul, and cannot get out, you are stuck adoring all the rooms full of art. the skin is nothing but a wall you penetrate to surf on a soul level into the being of another soul until you are intertwined.

this is your reminder to start slow and gradually lean into consistency rather than to change your entire routine one fine day. it's okay to start wherever and whenever you feel ready. please don't compare yourself to the highlight reel of people on social media. i promise it's never too late to work on your goals. you don't have to make a drastic change just because it's a new year. time is a social construct and i want nothing more than for you to truly enjoy life at present without worrying too much about the future. you are completely able to achieve goals you have set for yourself, but take it step by step. please avoid burnout and please take rest. wishing you all the best!!

falling back into patterns and behaviours you thought you'd worked to overcome doesn't mean you've lost all your progress.

changing things we've been doing our whole lives takes time and it's perfectly fine if that's hard sometimes.

infact, learning to overcome setbacks is a part of recovery.
