On Valentine’s Day, Jill and I brought our second furbaby home.

Meet Nacho, he’s a 5 month old Devon Rex cat and we are completely smitten with him 💕

2 years ago today, Loki flew all the way to Belgium from Texas. It was the most stressful and scariest thing I’ve ever had to go through. Jill and I didn’t get that much sleep until he got home safe. Really wish he could’ve flew with me, so he didn’t have to fly by himself.

It’s hard to believe it’s been that long already. Loki has been settling in just fine here, and he absolutely loves the cooler weather and rain. We found out that the beach is his “happy place” (he’s never been to a beach before until we took him to the Netherlands.) His favorite thing to do is run in the water and eat the waves.... it’s the funniest thing ever 😂

Our adventures continue even though we’ve closed the distance. Loving every minute of it with Jill and Loki ❤️ 🐾

Augh. It's hot.

Finally got registered with a GP :) have a phone appointment to make an actual appointment to finally get my iud removed. It's been causing alot of hormonal problems which I've always had but I want to get off hormones so I can actually start addressing any problems I need to and figure out the root cause of the hormonal problems.

FINALLY got a bank account so I can't actually start fully looking for Jobs ^.^

It's been an adjustment getting used to being a wife and being fully in person but I'm happy, definitely the happiest I've been and its so nice. I'm enjoying taking care of a house ATM, even though I can't do it fully with the house not being ours but I look forward to us having our own place hopefully within the year. We'll see how I feel about taking care of a house and working though xD

Trying to start eating better, the monotony of life had me really really down for a bit but hamish and I started working on that last month or so and it's gotten alot better, still some stuff were working on but my goal is to lose 20-30 lbs by the end of the year and I thiiiiiink next month were both signing up for a gym which will be nice. Though I have some weird fear about being judged for being at the gym as a bigger person hut the goal is to become a less big person.

But yeeeeee. Life. Lol

I wish I could like. Accurately take a picture of this but hamish and I live in the country with his parents and it is just POURING down rain. But the like...cute little spinkle raindrops not the big boi drops xD but it's also sunny out so it is just the most beautiful scene of everything glistening and their being sky glitter everywhere and I'm sitting down looking out the window with home made potato soup that hamishs step dad made and man....I am just...so happy... so much happier than I've been and so free of anxiety in this moment and I've always been sure of my life decisions. I don't really see a point in holding onto regret through life but.. I'm SO SURE about the decisions that led me here today

It's always so crazy/funny to me that like...back in the states I almost NEVER dreamed and when I did they were like...super mundane just me living my life dreams and then when I'm in Scotland I have the most off the fricken walls wake up and go what the heck dreams xD last night I had a dream that I got kidnapped by the iron man suit cuz it needed someone to pilot it and took me along on spy missions. 🕵️‍♀️ and that's probably one of my more tame dreams since I've been here xD
