The leather notebook i made myself for my back to writing by hand adventures. I'm excited to go back to something that made me a prolific writer as a child. July 10, 2025

My solo mother's day trip has truly been amazing. I've also worn my hair out every day. I love that for me!

Making our house into a home, one project at a time. Just finished putting this little wall together for my vinyls. It's just missing a cute little wall decal where the stud is. Next, cleaning and then another project! Then I'll be cooking to prepare for my surgery. Good day!

This Kate Spade bag is absolutely lovely. Excited I could fit several books, notebooks, pens, highlighters, my wallet, and more. I've been trying to make an effort to journal and read daily. Reading Guidebook to Relative Strangers by Camille T. Dungy. I loved Soil, so, I'm glad to read this one.

Went to see Sinners.....cried. Wow, that movie was excellent. The music was glorious -- ALL the music. The end was amazing. It has me in my feelings and crying just like The Woman in the Yard did! Wow! My people.

I'm less than halfway through Camille T. Dungy's Soil and I bought the print copy to annotate. I also added it to my dissertation reading list! Phenomenal.

I bought a record player over a week ago. And while we were on spring break vacation, I found an awesome record store and bought so many good things. I also have SZA's CTRL and it's a beautiful translucent set.

I haven't worn jeans in over a decade - since I moved most of my wardrobe to linen. But I found these at a thriftstore and instantly knew they were mine.

Same. Bacon and eggs. And they were free range. If it's going down, I'm eating good.

Even the leftovers look good, colorful, and the kids were happy to help me add the spring onions. Like, I wish I could shove all the videos of my children eating in the doctors faces! They are just tiny children, both barely 6lbs at birth. They are active, smart, and doing well 😔🥺

Lately I've been very emotional about motherhood and making sure my children are healthy and fed - they are so tiny and seeing "failure to thrive" on my sons paperwork hurts my heart. I know why they do that but still! But then I have days where my children DEMOLISH my food and I feel vindicated

Hydrate often (i water rinse every few days unless style, and then I mist). Use products that promote moisture like Aussie Moist shampoo/conditioner. Rose water, leave in conditioner, and hydrating creams are also great for in between wash days! This was freshly taken out of marleys and washed

That moment when you get home from a late night of karaoke, bonding with the girls..... To your son sleeping on the edge of the couch.
