"Maybe in another lifetime" no. This is literally all we get. Send that text. Go out on Friday. Tell your friends and family that you love them. Be kind. Because you only get this life once. Your life is not a game, you can't replay this. Don't hide behind your fears and "what ifs".Don't leave any stones unturned if you felt the need to ever turn them.

I’m so awkward, it’s embarrassing and hilarious 😂 if I’m not in my usual environments it’s like my brain stops working and I can’t get words out when people speak to me.

Anywho, my car has been dropped off and hopefully they’ll find what’s wrong with it and it won’t cost thousands of dollars. Please universe, give me a break.

I feel not so great about myself lately. I gotta figure my shit out.

My black eye is kind of getting better I think? Every time my kids look at me they very dramatically tell me how bad it is 😂 oddly enough, only one person at work noticed it yesterday, or rather only one person spoke up about it lol I’m shocked how people are either not observant or don’t want to ask me? I haven’t worked with any of my bff’s so that will be the real test lol

I have to take my oldest to the college soon. I think I’ll get some Starbucks today.

I’m off for three but I really need to work some OT. But we haven’t been super busy and I don’t think NICU has been either. I’ll text them later when I decide.

Let’s try to have a good day! 💛

soulmates are people you gravitate towards in many dimensions. u just have higher percentage of having a meaningful friendship in this world, how sweeet :)

Among the Mountains

2010 Seoul, South Korea

I figured it out!!! hehe :P okay so.... 6. 9. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 30.

6. say three nice things about yourself (three physical and three non physical)

I have pretty eyes, I like my body, and I have nice hair. I am strong, brave, and sensitive.

9. what calms you down? meditation, deep belly breathing, a hot cup of tea, massage, running, journaling, pretty much anything under the polyvagal theory works for me.

19. most important thing in your life? maintaining my mental health/being there for my family. it feels selfish to not say my husband or family- but I have to take care of myself first before I can be there for others in the way i’d like to be.

20. what do you want most in the world right now? the courage and strength to get through my job, so that I can go back to focusing on the things that matter most, my family, home, & self.

21. if you could tell your past self one thing, what would it be? you have no idea what’s coming for you. (I don’t wanna tell her too much!)

22. what would you say to your future self? I love you, thank you, you are beautiful.

23. favorite piece of clothing? mmm all of my crew necks

30. what reminds you of home (doesn’t have to mean house... just things that remind you of the feeling of home)? Jackson for sure, my dogs, my zen room, the smell of spruce/woodsy oils.
