Tuesday Gratitude
blog

I remember when I used to hate Sundays, mainly because I’d let the dread of Monday ruin the day for me. Now I absolutely LOVE my Sundays and look at them as days to be soft, slow and full of love. Most Sundays, my husband and I spend a majority of the morning laying in bed. I used to have so much guilt when I’d rest; all I’d think about were the tasks and to-do lists, but now I can let myself lay around and understand that rest is necessary and I am supposed to give myself time to recover from life LOL.
We’re gonna see our friends today, I told her I’d help take photos of her and her family for a little maternity shoot! I love taking photos and I love helping her- she helped us with our engagement photos and they turned out amazing! It’s wild what great photos you can get with an iPhone! I’m excited to see how they all turn out! It’s a chilly day, but the sun it out and the leaves are changing in some places so I’m hopeful we will get some great shots!
Halloween is Friday, which is one of my favorite holidays!! As far as I know, I’m really not doing anything for it this year! I have a couple friends coming over on Saturday night to chill and catch up, so that’s really what I’m looking forward to! I may do a little basic costume for work on Friday with something I have in my closet already- we will see what happens!
I am excited to make this a good week, and I’m just feeling like so much goodness is on the horizon! Sending love and prayers to all who need a little extra right now- may you find peace and clarity where you need it.

How much would you pay to go to the moon?
As much as I love the moon, I don’t think you could actually pay me to go there LOL.
Today my husband and I are getting tattoos for his cousin who passed away in June. We were blessed that she was able to make it to our wedding last year, and I will always remember her laughing, hilarious self. Today my husband was shuffling music on his iPhone and Black Love by Masego came on… one of our wedding songs. He text me and told me he got choked up (we both do now with that song), and I immediately knew that cousin Shawn was sending her sign. She approves of our tattoos, and she is always here supporting us. I miss her dearly, but I find peace knowing she is all around.

You can find meaning and magic in every interaction if you want to.
Grief is a wild, strong emotion- but that only means the love was strong.
Where focus goes, energy flows. Be mindful of the energy you’re calling in.
We’re all ignorant to things and we’re meant to be. No human is meant to know everything.
When you’re feeling intense or extreme in your emotions, it can be hard to try to find the medium- this is when you need to pause and get into your body. Shake. Scream. Dance. Cry. Pause.
What makes a good neighbor?
Someone who doesn’t scream at and abuse their significant others and minds their own business. That definitely sounds like the bare minimum (and is LOL), but we have a crazy neighbor and at this point, we just appreciate the neighbors who are nothing like him. We also don’t have kids or anything currently, and I hear my coworkers talk about how they have nice neighbors who will help them with their kids and/or bus stop things which I find to be very nice! Basically neighbors who are helpful when needed, and mind their business all the rest of the time!

Definitely started a post this morning and forgot to go back to it LOL! I am pretty tired now but trying to get back on a daily writing streak so just wanted to make a post quick!
It’s a new moon and I am looking at myself with rosy colored lenses. I no longer wish to compare and criticize my body or my health, instead I choose to celebrate the wins and be grateful for what is. I no longer wish to “fix” and “improve” myself, instead I will just be.
Just being me is enough. Focusing on joy and love is what I prefer over the fears and doubts that chaos can bring. I am leaning into faith over fear, and really just trying to stay focused on gratitude and peace.
What are you most proud of in your life?
I’m proud of the fact that even though I grew up in chaos and had traumatic experiences, I still choose to grow and not allow that to turn me into a bitter person.
I trust in the Universe to keep me protected from all evil, and all things blocking me from my purpose.
I trust my Angels and Guides to keep me on the path to my higher self, loving and supporting me along the way.
I trust in Diving Timing; even when it may not always feel right in the moment, I know there is a bigger and better plan.
There is so much beyond my control, and I no longer wish to hold the weight of the world. I trust that love and light will always prevail. I trust that people are more kind and loving and connected than the media may make it seem. I trust that there is good in this world, and greatness in the divine. Thank you, thank you, thank you. 🤍✨

Last night I had a few friends over for a “ghouls night!” It was so nice just chatting, painting pumpkins and watching movies! It makes me want to host more lowkey nights like that with only 3-4 people so we can all connect and just enjoy conversations and crafts!
