Bow-utiful?

This morning was one of those mornings where you swear the whole day is just going to turn out embarrassing. Nothing was really working out for me getting out of the house & I sort of felt like a big dirty mess. You know, those days where you are already sweating & it's 9:15 am? Yep, totally me.

I go to my Grandma's every Tuesday & I today used the line "I put this bow in my hair to distract from the mess." Aaannnnd, I think it might have worked a bit. Aaaannd, this might be my motto for my life.


I am blessed with the most amazing life. By no means, am I a perfect person. Am I deserving of such good graces? Probably not. But these days, in my old age of 28, I work to deserve the good things I get by trying to be the best possible human being I can be. While I am not perfect, I strive to be the best version of myself.

Today is a great example. I so wanted to give up. I wanted stop & sit in the middle of the living room in my 9:15 sweat and say no, I am not going to Grandma's today. Why? Because it is just too much damn work, today!

But I didn't do that. I sucked it up. I put a bow in my hair and walked out the door because that is the me I need to be. I get up & go & do & live well for the sake of my own sanity.

  2. That's a really good motto. Something cutesy to make you forget the way you feel inside. Sometimes its hard to come around and do the things you need to do, but creative people find ways to make themselves keep pushing forward, no matter what! Cute blog :)

  4. You did a good thing today. That cute blue bow turned out to be your magic wand :) (My go-to fix is a spray or two of perfume)

    Hopefully, you can take it easy for the rest of the day. You deserve it!
