Busy week. I hung out with my mom on FaceTime one day, and my dad the next. I love talking to my parents. Today a package arrived - always a special event living on this island, it seems like. In the box was a set of Sennelier iridescent soft pastels I am so excited to … Continue reading Busyness

A Down Day
Today I attended a mom's meetup. It was fun, especially as it called for bringing some of my gorgeous sticker collection. But I left early and didn't feel good the rest of the day. I slept half the afternoon. Now I'm watching The Ritual with my family. I feel like hiding.
Date Day
Today C and I spent the day together. We dropped A off for her first day of 7th grade. Then we ran errands and got lunch at Olive Garden. C took me to the film store, but the only rolls they had left were around 60 dollars. That's more than I wanted to spend, so … Continue reading Date Day
Under the Weather
Sore throat. Headache. Racing thoughts. Sleeplessness. I am mentally and physically not feeling right. I think my mood is swinging.

I'm still going - on and … Continue reading Under the Weather
Exhausted
My inlaws have been here a week. I hope they've had a good time. I love my inlaws, but honestly one week of having guests has been a lot. Stressful.

Now I'm up and feeling refreshed. Saturday's date night was great. Backrooms was unsettling and I liked it. I tried … Continue reading Long Nap, Ash
Quiet Week
A few pictures This has been a week of rest. I was supposed to make art with my friend J on Friday, but she had to cancel. I talked to my mom on FaceTime instead. Honestly I can't remember much of this week. I was very unwell.
Long Weekend
C has a four day weekend from Saturday to Tuesday, and A has it from Friday to Monday (today). This weekend we ate out by the water. Today we went to my favorite restaurant. Overall this has been a weekend of good food, running errands, and making collages. Soon I'll do a post on what … Continue reading Long Weekend
Recovering
I still feel a deep hurt. OCIA starts soon. I scheduled confession for Tuesday. My kind husband is trying to cheer me up. I have to remember maybe next time dc will be better, because my husband has to go back at some point whether it breaks me or not. I am already suffering from … Continue reading Recovering
Offering Up My Suffering
Last night was difficult for me. I was on the edge of taking my life. I took too many pills. I need to offer up my suffering to God. I don't know how. My life is so beautiful. I know that. But the pain gets so strong that it rips me apart. And when C … Continue reading Offering Up My Suffering
