Sunday 10/26/25

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.

Trusting/Faith

blog

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. 🤍✨

Sunday/New Moon 4-27-25

blog

Good morning! I’m so happy to see the sun shining on this gorgeous day- a day of rest and resetting. Self care is on the list today- which includes a little bit of spoiling ourselves with some pedicures today. My husband and I haven’t had pedicures since November… LOL so we’re a bit overdue. I also wanted to get one before my girls trip coming up!

I’m also gonna pick up some groceries today and do my best to have a more nutritious week than I have been having lately, because I know my body deserves to be healthy and full of vitamins and nutrients. This part is always harder for me, but I am going to focus on small wins and keep reminding myself why I am doing this.

New moons are time for new intentions, and since we are no longer in eclipse season, the energy is much calmer. Plant those seeds that you wish to grow, and take time to nourish them. No rushing, no pushing- just trusting in the divine timing of it all. I am focusing on my physical and mental health, as well as how I can be more grounded- both in nature and in my own positive energy.

Rainy Sunday

blog

Enjoying a peaceful morning reading my book and admiring the fog outside. I’m getting breakfast with my friend in a few hours, but it’s so nice starting the day slow and quiet.

I have my pre-op appointment for my tonsillectomy tomorrow, and then surgery is bright and early on Thursday morning! I’m doing my best to lean into faith over fear, and luckily this is such a routine procedure that I’m really not too worried about it.

The only thing that I keep thinking about is I worry that my actual voice will sound permanently different, because I am also having my nasal tissue removed/reduced so I can actually breathe properly through my nose. I feel like I have a pretty nasally voice, so I’m interested to see if that changed afterwards.

Regardless I’m sure all will go smoothly, for now I’m just working on keeping myself calm and my nervous system regulated.

Sunday Thoughts (Random-ish)

blog

I felt like I was getting so much sleep this morning that I actually slept through the entire day and I was going to wake up to my Monday morning alarm for work. Needless to say, that did not happen and for that I am thankful. It did feel nice to get a lot of sleep-I’ve been feeling the need to rest and reset lately so I am embracing this slow weekend and season in my life.

I decided to make myself a new Tumblr page yesterday. When I was younger, Tumblr was my first blog. It is mainly photos and you can post your own and/or “re-blog” from others, but it always felt so therapeutic to me. I had been messing around with a few settings here on WordPress and just kept thinking about how much I missed having a photo-blog (aka Tumblr)-so I decided to sign up and create a new one! If you want to check it out you can at https://themagicshecreates.tumblr.com/

I have this thought that comes back every now and again about how us humans feel the need to be in the loop on every tragedy happening around the globe, yet we aren’t even present to our own health and financial goals. How are we going to save the world or solve any problems when we are struggling to survive ourselves?

People scream at other people on the internet calling them privileged for ignoring the horrific news, when there are tons of people who are informed but aren’t doing anything about it. For example, my mom is always complaining about politics and whatever but she doesn’t write letters to representatives or do anything productive with that information. Also, how informed is anyone when the news/media is profiting of your anxieties and fears?

The only reason to be on the internet is to spread true authentic love and light. I have such a love/hate relationship with Instagram, which is why I am happy I signed back up for tumblr, where people aren’t commenting and going back and forth-we are all just sharing art. I also like the app Lapse for this reason as well. I am going to end up taking time back off Instagram again, which always makes me feel better mentally.

Today is going to be a peaceful Sunday, and I am just soaking in all of the blessings around me. I am grateful to have a warm home and roof over my head. I am grateful to have an incredible life partner who loves and respects me. I am grateful to have friends who encourage me and are rooting for me. I am grateful that my husband and I have our jobs so we are able to pay our bills and have fun in this life we have built together. Finally, I am thankful for my angels and guides who keep me divinely protected and blessed- thank you, thank you, thank you!

Self Care Sunday

blog

Today was much needed. My husband and I got to sleep in, so we went out for breakfast at 1pm! Once we got home I kept my promise to myself and made us green juice for the week, as well as some ginger shots! I also did a little bit of vision board journaling.

This morning I was actually crying tears of joy, and it was all because I was truly just feeling into the love and joy in my life. I used to feel so riddled with anxiety to the point that I never could just be in the present moment, and now that I catch myself consciously feeling joy, I’ve been trying to really lean into that feeling and giving it space.

Life is full of struggles and hardships, but the love that we have in our lives is what makes it possible to survive. Lean into the love around you, and remember to recognize how truly blessed you are. Sending extra love to everyone this Sunday!

Sunday 2-9-25

blog

Today is a sunny, relaxing day. I just spend some time writing up from “Galentine’s” cards that I’ll be mailing out to some of my friends tomorrow. I wanted to spread some extra love this year, especially to friends in far places or who I haven’t seen in a while!

I also have been feeling a lot better mentally and physically, and I finally saw an ENT who recommended that I get my tonsils removed! I have been dealing with issues for years and I am finally just going to have them completely removed and although the recovery won’t be fun, the long term result will be so worth it.

I am excited that I am feeling better and more hopeful again. I’ve found turning to my angels always is the answer, and there are times when I forget that. When I am intentional with my thoughts, I can feel the difference. Sending positive vibes to everyone this lovely Sunday!

Sunny Sunday (1-26-25)

blog

I took a quick pause from making our lunches for the week to post in here. I’ve been feeling pretty bleh lately, but luckily I am aware that this feeling isn’t going to last forever. Today I’m still doing what I need to do to set myself up for the week, and for that I am proud.

I purposely made zero plans this weekend just to use it as a reset, and it has been exactly that. Yesterday my husband and I went out for a breakfast date and grabbed a few necessities from Walmart, but we spent our Saturday night in hanging out together. This morning we slept in and then went out and grabbed some Starbucks!

Spending time with my husband and just being in our home is such a blessing, and I am grateful for this life of ours. Wishing everyone a happy Sunday filled with blessings and love! 🤍✨

Sleepy Sunday

blog

Today was definitely a nap day, and I am not one who normally takes naps. To be fair, I did have a pounding headache that wasn’t going away and I felt like sleeping it off was the best option.

I did a grocery pick up order today and am about to get ready to make our lunches for the week! It’s so much easier to just have our lunches ready to bring to work, so as much as I don’t necessarily look forward to putting it all together, I love the benefits that come from putting the effort in.

This past week I got up early three days of the week and started my day on my treadmill. I honestly could feel the difference in my mood throughout the day and I’m excited to get back to it again tomorrow!

Tomorrow is also 11/11, and being the witchy weirdo I am, I love that!! It’s known to be a powerful day for manifesting, so make sure you take time to be intentional with your day and what energy you’re putting into onto the world. As long as remember to tune into gratitude and love, and you will feel the blessings and abundance pour in.

Sending love to everyone who needs a little extra right now; you are all stronger than you know.

This Sunday has been so relaxing and I have been soaking in the precious life that I live. My husband and I treated ourselves to some nice pedicures to celebrate his birthday early (he turns 30 on Wednesday)! We’ve been enjoying the cloudy day by taking it slow- soon we will be going to his parents’ home for family dinner. I just wanted to check in and list some of the things I have been grateful for recently:

-my respectful, loving husband

-our beautiful home that has everything we need

-fancy pedicures

-iced coffee

-our financial situation

-our jobs

-good music

-podcasts

-comfortable sweatpants/sweatshirts

-netflix

-genuinely supportive friends

Life will always present challenges, which is why it is important to take time to appreciate the good parts. Sending love and positive vibes to everyone this beautiful Sunday.
