Here’s to being yourself in the work place. 😅 https://www.instagram.com/p/CmM9r-8Putn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

One of the best self help/dating advice books I’ve ever read. “Uhm, but Lindsay… that’s about monogamous dating. What gives?” I’m glad you asked. Is it really, though? Is it really about monogamy? Or is it about the importance of knowing yourself before you try dating someone else? I mean realistically, how can we know what we need from a partner, if we don’t even know how we want to be treated? From this book I learned to own myself. I learned to date me first. I started my first open relationship with myself. PS yes it’s a movie. But the book is way better. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl30pZjO9OW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This week in conversation with a co-worker, I mentioned that I’m studying Spanish, German, and ASL. The response I received was one of surprise, which earned a response of confusion from me. Lol If you know me, you know I’m not happy if I’m not studying something. So… I study everything. 🤣😂 After some New Moon reflections, I decided to put work into a tik tok series, following my language learning journey. Mostly for my benefit, but also others may find it interesting. So, there it is. https://www.instagram.com/p/ClWY4yhOs8a/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

For the record, my brain doesn’t always go to Food when thinking of how to describe what Polyamory can feel like. Another analogy that has crossed my mind recently is… One partner is like the sun, one is like the moon. Each affecting my world in different, but equally important, ways. Of course this analogy gets a little too “I can’t live without one or the other.” For my taste. Which is why I lean more toward food analogies 😂 You can have preferences for more than one kind of food, but if something were to happen and you had to do without them. You’ll survive. This is an important distinction in my personal journey, (due to old co-dependcy tendencies) But that sun/moon/world thing is romantic though, right? 😉☺️ #polyamorous #polythoughts #nonmonogamy #ethicalnonmonogamy https://www.instagram.com/p/ClOHdGAOMSm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I grow a little more comfortable with myself, on the daily. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj6PXEQvMjN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If you know me, then you know I always strive to be open about who I am. At first, I thought I was gaining self confidence. In truth, I just learned that it takes SO much more energy to pretend to be something I’m not. Or to pretend to be something that society can handle. I’ve been through the ringer in my life. I’ve not kept it secret that I am of the poly persuasion. It took… (Holy Crap!!!) 7 years!!! To get where I am now. I’ve been in and around this for such a long time. For me, I’m so many ways… it’s just normal. I came into poly in the worst way possible. Went through a couple of years of therapy… and so on. (Not because of the poly, lol but other traumas in my history.) but it was through therapy that I learned who I truly am. And then, finding an amazingly supportive partner who sees me and understands me… and makes me laugh till I can’t breathe. 😂 My point of all this… there’s been several times over the past several days, weeks even, that I’ve caught myself resorting to old ideas. i.e. “I’ll keep it to myself they wouldn’t understand.” Not just in my relationship style, but I’m my life in general, and it’s been causing a depression to try and take root. My message today is to be who you are unapologetically. “The people who matter don’t mind, and the people mind don’t matter.” I am blessed to have good people in my life. And I am forever grateful for them. Y’all know who you are. 🥰 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj3tGD4Pu35/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It was this kind of Monday for me. My favorite time of the month. 🤦‍♀️ not planned very well, with my intentions to get back into eating right and working out. I woke up too late to mix my shake, cramped ALL day… barely managed to get lunches made in time for work. Never did get that work out in… but good news is I ate well today. Within portions. And healthy things. And the things that weren’t “healthy” were in moderation. Usually PMS has me eating my feelings. I’ll be honest, I’ll count this as a win. 😊 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjjf9X-taSf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The wedding feast photos!! 😋 Such a big thank you to everyone who helped out/brought a dish/worked behind the scenes. It really went so far to make our special day that much more special! 🥰 https://www.instagram.com/p/CjYM_-JOagS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
