Ruby Rainbow Beauty

We've made it halfway through spring! I hope everyone had a wonderful - I spent so much time and energy outside working in our yard and then took a refreshing shower!

Some days are hard and lonely, but I am capable of so much joy and I am worthy of love and respect and healthy boundaries. I am proud of myself for actively working on self-improvement and still managing to be empathetic and compassionate and understanding of the duality of a situation even as part of me wants to scream and rage at the unfairness of it all. I have done so much for my own health (mental and physical) in the last year and am continuing to do so, and I am so proud of myself for that. Some days I cry over and over and over, but thats okay! It makes moments like the one pictured, where I feel joy and it radiates from my whole face, all the more cherished because how can one honor the highs if they dont know what the lows feel like?

Anyway. Here's to another year of further growth and the hope that on this day next year, I can say that the hurtful things sting a little less than they do today. I hope that I never take for granted the beauty of simple joys and laughing with my family.

What an incredible night.

I think one of my favorite things about the last couple of years is the way I went from being uncomfortable in red to now its one of my favorite colors to wear. And forever with the sparkles and fishnets because why not?

May you all feel as good in your skin as I do in this glorious "Mrs Roper robe" (that's literally what the tag said when I found it in an antique store) 🫶

I got rained on today as I pulled tonssssss of periwinkle from my front flower bed. This s**t chokes out everything and I cannot get rid of it for the life of me. 🥲🙃 I just want the things I want up there to thrive, and it cannot if this s**t keeps coming back with ferocity.

I'm hoping I'll feel like doing makeup soon, we'll see what that looks like! For now, cool t-shirt (from ), cool necklaces, and sparkly rings. And a new smile that I'm working on getting used to.

I turned 33 this week! It's been a wild week full of changes. I also got this amazing shirt for my birthday! I'm obsessed with it.

Got this tattoo 24h eye Stix in shade I Am Unexpected - its a really nice color and smooth buttery texture. Love. 🥰🌈
