my favorite little corner of my home. out of all the spaces I have, I don’t know why I love this one the most. maybe it’s because that mirror welcomes anyone who enters, or because three pretty little plants thrive here, or it could simply be the vintage dresser that I staged as living room decor - either way, it’s my fave + I just thought I’d share with you! ✨ do you have a special little nook in your home that you adore? tell me why + extra credit for including a photo!

deep thoughts on a sunny Friday afternoon of quarantine 2020. ya’ll ready for this one? three years ago today I felt like I had been possessed by some sort of greater force, which took over my being + made a decision that would change the trajectory of the rest of my life. let me give you a little background to set the scene. I promise I’ll keep it as brief as I can, but you might want to sit down, because it’s heavy. nine L O N G months earlier, my fiancé called off our wedding. we weren’t newly engaged…in fact, it was about 6 weeks to the day before the date was set, scheduled + ready to go down…oh and mostly paid for. for the NINE MONTHS following that heartbreaking blow to the ego, I stuck by his side as we tried to figure out why he suddenly didn’t want to commit. he claimed cold feet, and had me believing he just needed time, so time is what I gave him, hoping his proverbial feet would warm up + life would continue. but on march 26th, 2017, I woke up with a different understanding of it all. that possession that I spoke about in the beginning of this rambling? yeah, it was loud + clear. YOU ARE WORTH SO MUCH MORE. he’s never changing. YOUR WHOLE LIFE IS AHEAD OF YOU. you don’t owe him anything, and certainly not another day of your beautiful life. those are just some of the messages I was getting from this creepy out-of-body experience. so I made him move out. ended it, for once and for all. FINITO. boy bye. I got a lot of life left to give, and I’ll be damned if dude is trying to drag me down. this was pre-Lizzo, but that would be the soundtrack I will forever give to this memory. MY WORST FEAR IN LIFE had come true. actually, a few of them. I found out shortly after that he was in another relationship + his plead of “just more time” was all a big fat, ugly lie. why am I telling you all of this really vulnerable dirt? keep reading….

almost two weeks into the mandatory introversion...I mean, isolation. the weather here in minnesota was pretty killer...like, the kind of weather where you will almost certainly see people in shorts or sandals. so I did what every good Minnesotan should do, went for a walk. took a friend along, too. swipe to get a close up. 😻

the second I learned of the mission to add hearts where others can see it to show that WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER, I was giddy with excitement. rainbows? hearts? a happy message? a contagion that spreads joy? I mean, it really doesn’t get much better than this! Sammy boy, and the rest of the zoo all want to show our love to the world right now. yes shit is getting weird, you’re not human if you’re not slightly scared or have some fear of what’s to come, but we are all in this together. we will make it out of this smarter, better, and with a real knowledge of what’s truly important in life. join the group #aworldofhearts on Facebook to see more love + joy spreading across the globe! 🌎 💖

day 296 of captivity. human thinks it’s cute to bathe me. it’s anything but cute. her arms will now bare scars forever in remembrance of the time she thought it would be a good idea. she also clipped my nails. dumb human, she should have done that before attempting to bring me near water. the dogs living here get to go outside often. lucky mutts. I’m stuck in this house where the woman keeps holding me like a newborn. she needs other humans in her life or she gets weird like this. sos. please send help for my safety. and hers. I might go dig up some dirt in some of her plants today, just to spite her trying to clean me. I can’t let her think I’m her pet...we all know cats are far superior to any other living being...especially those derpy dogs that she loves so much. wish me luck.

🌿✨🤟🏼

second monday of physical distancing. humans life, again, is only slightly different than usual. she usually leaves us alone once or twice a week, but she’s not been here 24/7 + to be honest, we’re all sick of her. she’s currently rearranging closets. I mean, who does that? seems to me like her time would be better spent building me a giant scratching tree palace, but what do I know, I’m just a cat. I’d like to take this opportunity to explain to you how big my proverbial balls are. I keep sneaking into this part of the house where the big white deaf boy + his sister stay + human keeps losing her shit claiming I have a death wish. but look at me now! I just wanted to feel closer to my brother Frank, because he always used to sit on the warm fireplace...and Grant is being such a good boy! I think we might be able to be friends after all....and this quarantine is surely the reason why! well, hope everyone out there is able to look on the bright side today. check back later...if I’m not turned into a dog squeaky before then.

let’s be friends.

let’s be friends.
