We’ve officially entered my favourite time of year – that brief moment between Halloween and Christmas when the holiday excitement is beginning to bubble, but everything still feels quiet and still. And while things haven’t technically been all that slow around here lately, what with a trip to Montreal and a million things coming to fruition on all of my design jobs, I’m still feeling very peaceful these days. And while I’m well aware that life is all about those ebbs and flows and anything can change in an instant, lately I feel like I’ve really figured out when I need to say no, and it has served me (and my anxiety) so well. The lessened load, in addition to my seriously reduced anxiety, has also freed up so much more time for family and friends, which I’m so grateful for. I’m hoping to channel these good vibes into the weeks and months ahead, and hope you’ll join me!

The hardest thing to do is say no sometimes but it is also a very important ability to have.
Also I love your photos did you take those? If so what is the camera and lens that you use?
Thank you! I have a Fujifilm X-T2
I also love this time of year. I can’t wait to spend the holidays with parents, my brother, sister-in-law, and eight month old nephew.
My best friend and I were just discussing our inability to say no as often as we should. I’m all for helping others, but not at the expense of my well-being. We both agreed to hold each other accountable to care for ourselves while we care for those in need.
Happy Friday
