Thankful.




This past week was Thanksgiving, and it had its ups and downs. I worked so much, and it was brutal, it's incredible how frantic people get over clothes. Black Friday, you are one ugly day.
Thanksgiving was amazing. I was able to be with my family and that was such a blessing!
I am thankful for being able to get an education in something I love. I am thankful for people that I can count on, and I am thankful for life, and so much more!
I am also thankful for fall, and the little gifts that fall leaves for us.
Vibrant leaves.
Pine-cones.
Crispy walks.
Droppings from the trees.
Clear skies, and Christmas lights.
Life is beautiful, and fall is full of surprises.
Everyday more leaves cover the ground, and more people are finding gifts for people they love for the holidays.
Amazing.
Be thankful people.
It pays off.

Yes. The rumors are true.


Yes-people.
I eat my (cheese-less veggie) pizza with a fork and knife.

Get-into-it.

night stress.

Today I went to Ikea.
Yes.
My dream, Ikea. I dont know how, but I cant seem to leave that place with out spending at least 65 dollars are stuff I really dont need.
A frame, blanket, throw-pillow case, 4 candles... seems like I would have come home with more for 65 dollars, but I cannot seem to remember what other useless things I purchased.
Oh! I also came home with wrapping paper and chalk! (how could I forget?!)
I have a theory that I cant leave CVS with at least $20 of pointless junk, Target is usually at least $50 of some t shirts and weird foods. and Ikea, my minimum balance must be around $65.
Wish I had better self control!!! AHHHH!!!

So I came home and after laying on, and under my new blanket, I decided my room was boring.
I frantically began painting a bookshelf, and created some new wall 'pieces' for my bedroom.
I framed an old poster that Ive been wanting to hang forever and ate sour-dough-toast
(my favorite food of all time) that was baked and covered in marinara sauce.
These are my favorite sort of nights.
I will post photos of my 'new' bedroom soon.

so about this night stress problem.

after my craziness around my place, I got in bed and almost instantly, my hands start to shake, and my heart starts to thump.
it seems the second I hop in bed, every stress comes to me.
Some people get night sweats, I get night stress.
Instead of being woken up from being covered in sweat, I am woken up from my skin being drenched in heavy emotions.
Pretty odd. Right?
Oh well, going to sleep now, and I'm praying for dreams that include a limitless Ikea credit card that gets magically paid off!

Ladies and Gentlemen, now Introducing Alabama.





being productive is being good. for me.

Last night I had an amazing friend over, and we had some fancy fruity drink, we made pizza, and some vegan brownies,because of my lack of attention, I bruned the pizza, but the crunchy-ness just added to its tastyness. She is a new friend, but has quickly become one of my most dear friends who knows way to much about me, and gets me all too well.
we laughed about everything and i loved every second about it.
So today I woke up and took Alabama for a long walk. I didn't bring my camera, and it was one of those days when you walk around and everything is perfectly composed and totally ready for photos. The lighting was beautiful. It was like the clouds and the sun created a golden filter on everything around me. I felt like I was living this video... but the lights were dancing leafs.
I felt like the sun was trying to find me. It was amazing.
today was also odd because I just felt huge.
You ever had one of those days where you just feel like if you were to sit on a seat, it would snap from under your massiveness? yup, today was one of those days.
Tomorrow will start with a really long walk and less massiveness.
;)
