Today my husband and I celebrate two years of marriage, and fifteen years together! I’m so proud of how much we have grown together throughout the last decade and a half, and I can’t wait to see what our future holds. He’s sleeping next to me and I’m about to lay down and probably fall back asleep for a bit since we took the day off together. We have a very chill day planned and you bet your ass that Chili’s is involved! Can’t wait for those honey chipotle chicken crispers LOL!

Magical Vibes

blog

Well, I didn’t even realize that I missed a few days of blogging- oh well! I’m back for a moment now! My friend and I decided to be crafty today and make some magical wish boxes! I am planning to make another one that is more witchy themed, but today I went full pink whimsy vibes!

Happy Monday

blog

Another day, another week- man time just really keeps going doesn’t it LOL. But honestly though, it’s kind of wild to think about. Anyways, yesterday I did some crafting and decided to make some cute mini vision boards. I ended up mailing them off to a few of my friends today! I love doing little crafty things and am excited to see what I make next!

Sunday Scaries

blog

I don’t really feel like going to work tomorrow, or this whole week if I’m being real. I’d love to take a trip to an island or at least a beach somewhere warm! Luckily I still have today off, and my husband and I started off the day at our favorite breakfast place, so I’m satisfied for the day!

Yesterday we had fun at Oktoberfest with some of our good friends! We got to enjoy delicious smash burgers, pumpkin beer, as well as the haunted train ride and carousel! It was so fun hanging out with everyone, even though the rain kept coming and going. Luckily there were enclosed areas for everyone to hang out in!

It definitely feels like fall now which has me feeling cozy and spooky! I just finished watching Widows Bay (highly recommend- on Apple TV), and I am ready to just start watching every horror movie ever LOL so leave me some comments with your recommendations!

I hope everyone has a cozy, relaxing Sunday and that this week ahead turns out better than we expect!

Wednesday AM

blog

Yay for it being halfway through the week already LOL! Honestly, work yesterday wasn’t too bad and I actually went to the gym after work like I said I would! Look at me keeping a promise to myself! Now I’d just love to stay relatively consistent, so that’s a goal for this month (and really the rest of the year).

Also I got a new Braztie last night!! My husband loves his video games, our friends love their Pokémon cards, and me… I love Braziez!! They are different editions of Bratz babies in blind boxes and it’s currently my obsession. I was never into the Labubu’s, but considering I had quite the Bratz collection as a child, I am OBSESSED with these Bratzies!

Today, if the weather is okay, I am going to run a couple errands on my lunch break before stopping for the groceries on my way home! It’ll be nice to have all that done today so tomorrow I can focus on baking my Amish friendship bread after work! It’ll be my first time making that too and wow is it a process- I’ve been mashing a bag for 9 days now LOL!

I’ve decided today is going to be a great day, and I hope that today is great for everyone else as well!

Happy Friday

blog

It’s finally Friday!! Better yet- we have a long weekend! I’m excited to see friends, but also to relax and recharge after this work week. I haven’t written on here in a while, but I recently asked for a raise at work and was basically told I am capped: “maybe not forever, but for now.”

I won’t lie, it was kind of a slap in the face considering how much extra work I had taken one since my last raise in January of 2025 (ahem- almost 2 years ago). However, this just means it’s time to pivot! Now I know I won’t get anymore money here or have any room to grow, so it’s up to me to either settle, or find more.

This morning I’ve already seen 444, 555 and 1111. Yesterday I kept seeing 333 EVERYWHERE- I just know I can trust that all is working out and my angels are supporting me. Of course that doesn’t mean I can just lay around and do nothing- I have to be intentional with my time and effort, which I deserve to give that to myself!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Friday and relaxing weekend, and I hope you get all the signs you are looking for!

Maybe This Is What Life Is About

blog

Maybe life really is about making your 8-year-old self happy. Doing things just to do them; not for profit, not for views- just doing the things that you want to do for YOU.

Maybe life is about seeking out the beauty in all the things we deem to be “imperfect.” Seeing and appreciating what makes everything so special and unique in this world.

Maybe life is about finding what truly lights up your soul and pouring into yourself whenever you can. Filling your own cup up so full that it starts spilling love and light onto others who come across your path.

Maybe life is about noticing and being grateful for the abundance of blessings that surround you everyday. Basking in the happiness that you’ve created for yourself, and recognizing how much of your life is answered prayers.

Maybe life is having faith that no matter how hard life may get, we are more than capable of making it through. Recognizing how much you have overcome in this lifetime, and appreciating the person you have become along the way.

Maybe life is about slowing down and being present to the love that is within you, and all around you. Maybe this is what life is about.
