It’s crazy how I’m a matter of weeks everything can be going well & then life shows up. It can literally turn your entire mood around within a blink of an eye.
News of my Nana passing away really took a toll on me in a way that I’ve never experienced before. There was no crying, no shock, or a sense of being upset. I was more focused on making sure my father was fine and helping out in anyway possible. What I did notice is that my creative juices weren’t there. I literally have been in a weird headspace. Whenever I wanted to write I just couldn’t. The want to post was gone.
Grieving can come in different forms & it just happened to hit me right in SOACG. It was really weird for me because you expect to have this overwhelming feel of sadness. That sadness didn’t hit me till after her memorial service. Once I was away from my family and onto adulting, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I wanted to be with them, it’s what I needed. The moment I got back in their presence I felt whole! My parents, aunts, uncles, and little cousins, even in their annoyingness gave me what was missing.
Nana’s memorial reminded me that family is extremely necessary. I don’t get to see my loves often as I would like to, but when I do, I get everything I need. I’m smiling more, wanting to do more, brainstorming, and simply enjoying life more.
This month we will be on moves you here me! There will be TYS moments, events, and LOOKS!
This look just happens to be a repeated recreated look from last year’s ‘Fall Vibes’. Same colors, same vibe, but with a popping twist.
This vintage jacket is everything!! It fits like a glove & perfect for fall. I’ve said this before and I will say it again; get into and all about thrifting. This jacket may have been a handmedown, but better believe you’ll find a gem similar to it in a local thrift store. Thrifting can be a hit or miss, but 95% of the time you’ll find something for you!
