getting back to normal

In all honesty, today is the first time I’ve gotten dressed in real clothes and left the house in weeks. And all I’m doing is laundry! And grocery shopping! I’ve officially reached that age where running errands is starting to count as me going out, haha. We got hit by the nasty flu bug last week and spent the majority of it in bed, recovering, or at the doctor trying to figure out what was wrong with us. (Besides, y’know, the obvious haha.) So so happy to be feeling better and feeling like myself again. And my mom is coming to town this weekend! Even more reason to celebrate. Catch ya later, Blogland. Mama’s gotta go fold some laundry!

monday, monday

Today has been a good day. I've been doing "day in the life" on instagram stories today and it kind of feels like I'm oversharing but I also kind of don't care so it balances itself out. Someone cleaned the 8+ inches of snow we got yesterday off my car so I didn't have to do it this morning. I shared a really sweet engagement session over on my other blog today. I made two cups of coffee, which I normally don't do but just felt like it today. Went to therapy and HOLY COW. I have so many notes to work through. Making orange chicken and rice for dinner and probably gonna watch Jane the Virgin. A+ Monday.

get out of the house

I am extra-caffeinated today! Spent this morning hanging out with Cristin at Aquamos and just catching up on life. It feels so good to reconnect and spend time with my old Hardee's friends. I'm trying to make it a point to get out of the house for fun at least once a week for the rest of winter. Coffee dates count, sessions count, self-portrait therapy counts... as long as I'm having fun, I don't really care what I do. I just want to live and not feel like I'm wasting my life sitting inside because it's cold and I like being warm, haha. So cheers to more fun!

you are here

back at it, taking reflections in shop windows during an engagement session over the weekend. coming back to myself again and again in the form of old habits that started when I was a teenager. taking mirror pictures, reflections in general, may have started as a ~myspace thing~ but they'll always be the perfect "you are here" reminder.
