It’s Friday again
which,
I am not sure if you know
or not,
but it most definitely
my most favorite-ist day
of the week.
Even when I have to work.
I still love Friday.
Even when it’s a cool, kinda rainy day.
I still love Friday.
It just makes me happy,
it makes me feel excited
and full of bubbles and ideas and
oh-the-possibilities-that-lie-in-the-weekend-ahead!!!
Even if I have no plans…
sometimes,
ESPECIALLY
if i have no plans….
someone called me an extroverted introvert recently
and that
made a lot
of sense to me.
It felt like i came home. ♥
FRIDAY and I’M LOVING:
♥ this little cartoon which brought me to this which, honestly, brought me to tears. real tears. a good hard cry if i was telling the truth. and i generally always tell the truth.
♥ i might have a small travel bug…
♥ this. 100% this. i got in trouble once for taking “too many selfies”…that i was embarrassing myself. this came at a period in my life when i was probably the lowest i have ever been (except once before, a long time ago) and was really struggling behind closed doors…my outside persona was bright and shiny and selfie-happy but really, i was bit of a broken, sad, turning 50, not-sure-of-who-i-was-anymore on so many levels and trying to piece together the shards of my shattered self confidence after being cheated on at the end of a 20 year marriage…and i was navigating this the only way i knew how. not saying it was the right way. but it was my way. {all this is to say that words sting. even the well-intentioned ones.} the truth is no matter how well we think we know someone, we don’t really know what is going on for them…and honestly…i like selfies. i like to see where i was, who i was, i am ok with my lines and wrinkles and sun spots. they remind me that i laughed a lot and that i lived & loved my life. and that makes me happy.
i want you to take selfies, if you wanna. I want to celebrate your happiness and your good days and help you find your way through the rough patches. i want be your biggest fangirl and your loudest cheerleader. :) no matter how annoying i may be while doing that. Heehee. & if you don’t wanna take them, that’s a-ok, too!
♥ i am not gonna lie (i know, i already covered that above, haha) but i have a super sweet soft spot for Ryan Gosling and i adore Margot Robbie so i kinda can’t wait for this!
♥ my new plants…is it weird that i just want to hang out in here…ALL the time?
♥ finally feeling like i am starting to get the hang of crochet after SO many years of attempts
now i’m off to maybe
paint a random hallway
and turn a bedroom into a
master closet
or a secret reading hideway
or a FORT…
or all of the above.
(did i mention endless possibilities?)
