Hanging on to any animosity is giving someone free real estate in your brain. In the end it’s never important enough to lose a piece of yourself. https://www.instagram.com/p/B4QLd8anYzRiOMjbZthZbeTDX7fW6SQcOpyRis0/?igshid=xqevqvrav6gz

I and Love and You + Soul Dog Studios for #NationalPetDay

Today, April 11, marks National Pet Day, a day dedicated to celebrating our pets and all the love and joy they bring into our lives. For this year’s #NationalPetDay, I was fortunate enough to have been involved in a very special project arranged by premium pet food company, I and Love and You, to spread the word about some of Denver’s most adoptable dogs.

All of these rescue pups have been in foster care for MONTHS…and are still (somehow!) waiting for the perfect person and place to call “home”. You can read more about the project and the pups’s bios at the link below. After working with these sweethearts during their photoshoot, I can’t BELIEVE they haven’t all been snatched up yet! Let’s help them find a safe place to land this National Pet Day, so they can be loved and celebrated as they should be for the rest of their lives! <3

Click here to read more about the project, and, most importantly, all of these AMAZING dogs in need of a home!

All of the dogs are currently located in the Denver, CO area, but out-of-staters need not fret - now is the perfect time to travel to glorious Colorado to meet your soulmate! ;)

😂

Well now that I’m over the dramatic pitty party I was having 😂😂

You know what? I live where I want to live. I love my job. I love my house. I have an incredible husband. I have the cutest, sweetest and most genuinely caring healthy little boy. I have the best doggos. I don’t always love my truck PAYMENT, but am I damn happy to have it on days like today! (So much snow 😬)

Just like this snow my distance from my family is just temporary. I will see them Memorial Day AT THE LATEST. I will see them. Hug them. Squeeze them. I will see them. Not if, when!

It’s crazy how you can get your head so wrapped up in the bad....I am surrounded by so much good!

Helpless

I’ve never not been able to just load up my pickup and go home.

To just throw the dogs and the kiddo in and go upriver and see my parents.

I’ve never been so stranded and helpless in my life. I feel owned. I feel like a child.

My mom told me she is planning a trip though! Which gives me such hope and excitement.

Don’t get me wrong...I don’t regret the move here for even a moment.

We are one paycheck away from being ahead again bill wise! And this tax season should make things so much easier 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

The light at the end of the tunnel is so bright and I’m so excited....but finally having to acknowledge that I’m not going home this year probably is absolutely obliterating my heart.

I miss my brother. My mom and dad. My nieces. My couple of friends lol the ocean. The river. I’m dying here. I love it here but I’m dying. I feel like I can’t make anyone happy here and just being alive is making everyone there happy. I’m conflicted.

Missing this little face a lot on my lunch break. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsq9uK_H1KEaItYORLlQ1yRmiwk9shd8Z7TUwg0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zhj00cs0kzv8

Least Christmassy Christmas.

This year has been the lamest Christmas. I used to love Christmas. Michael has always hated Christmas haha but suffered through it for me. Now that we have William I feel it’s really important to enjoy Christmas, and so does Michael.

This year has just been so tight money wise and I’ve been so stressed....and Michael puts all the stress on me to budget but then gets mad when there isn’t money left over 🤷🏻‍♀️ he makes so much less here and we have racked up so many bills.

But there’s something I thought about this morning while drinking my coffee.

We moved almost 500 miles and completely restarted our life.

We have a house that we love to live in.

We have vehicles that run great and we love.

We are all basically in great health, besides Michaels gallbladder.

We have more than enough wood to keep us toasty warm all winter.

I start a job on the 3rd and money won’t be as big of an issue.

We have presents under our tree, and a grateful child that would have loved just one....let alone the mound that he gets to open!

Everyone in our family got a hand made present from us.

All of the big bills are paid. Everything else can wait 🤷🏻‍♀️ they will get their money when we have it.

Life just isn’t that bad. Life seems so stressful when ya know what? We get four days to spend as a family and I’ll be damned if we aren’t going to enjoy it. Maybe Michael didn’t enjoy Christmas as a kid because his family didn’t have much money....my family wasn’t rolling in the dough either and we enjoyed it because it was one of the only holidays my dad got off from work and we spent it as a family. There were some Christmas mornings that we didn’t even open presents, we went up in the woods and spent the whole day together then opened the presents that evening....because that wasn’t what it was about.

That’s what we need to remember....that’s not what it’s about.

Didn’t do a big workout, but I worked out! #MomBod #MomLife #BusyBee #PowerWasOutAllDay https://www.instagram.com/p/BrZQkYkHXvf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=190vxsej162of

Tired.

My brain and my heart are tired.

I’m so drained. I’m really hoping Tuesday I get this job. I need this. We need this.

👎🏼

Well since my husband sucked the family out of a family holiday.....and then we moved my office out of the guest bedroom into the freaking living room.....

I went from having my own personal space in a smaller house to sharing the most public space in the house... I am the only person in this house who doesn’t have a space for privacy and I’m the only one who works FROM THE HOUSE.

So that’s interesting. I’m over it.

Anxiety & Depression 😬😬

Your body is such a weird thing. Before I had William I had occasional seasonal depression. Super super mild.

Well after having William things are so different. I strive to be a good mom. I joke that I’m a mediocre mom, but I know I’m a good mom. Just look at William. BUT, I now have fairly severe anxiety and depression.

I mean I don’t want pitty, I can laugh at it myself. I’m medicated (soon getting a new doctor here and maybe change the dosage or type of meds) and super stable. But today I like mad cleaned my house after I put William to sleep and I couldn’t help but ask myself...holy crap, how did it get this bad? And it’s because I have depression. Why am I speed cleaning this house so fast I’m sweating and almost crying? Because I have anxiety. When the house is all clean and I sit down and look at it......I get this huge warm sweeping feeling through my body and I can relax. That’s anxiety. It’s so freak f weird.

I also overspend 😬😬😬 that’s depression. Then when it comes I get super buyers guilt and stress really bad. That’s anxiety.

The body and the brain is just so weird lol potty training William isn’t helping at alllllll. But he will get there and we will get through it! It’s just so weird. So so so weird.
