Damn its the end of December. Wow.

 I am sitting here with our new kitty. We adopted her back at the end of August. She is egyptian mau, maine coon, and tabby. This year has been pretty rough and I knew that at the beginning. I just didn't know it would suck so hard. All I can think about now is it's almost tax time and I have to go back to work. Im happy to, I just really enjoy my slow days. Especially when I just get to snuggle with kitty.

Update from my garden. I made my planters and filled them up. I started EVERYTHING from organic seeds. I didn't get an exact count of how many cucumbers I got, but I got 3 squash and at least 20 cucumbers. I also planted way too much butter lettuce. My medicine garden is what I am really most proud of. I had 11 plants total. The main 6 grew over 10 feet tall.

That's basically all I did this summer was sit in my garden. That pic was at the end of August, they flowered beautifly and grew a bit taller too- til the end of October. I have my plans all set for this next year and I'm actually super excited. I hope to have a new backyard view by then as well. Which reminds me, this next week we are starting our bathroom reno. Im actually terrified because I don't know how long it will take and I prefer to have a plan than just starting stuff with no plans. Its actually become a theme in my life at the moment. 

I am watching Elf right now and im still not in the Christmas spirit. I am just not feeling it this year and both of my kids are sick, so that means no one is over today. I really miss my house filled with family and all the kids screaming and being so excited for food and presents. Its super depressing that not even my parents will be over til next week sometime. Im so glad school is out and we can all sleep in! My kids are night owls like me. 

I do have big plans for this next year, but I don't really feel like the NEW year starts until Spring. When everything is also starting over anew. I am going to do a detox cleanse because I did gain 20lbs this year, definitely from drinking and eating late night snacks. So Im going to put in gym time and actually screw my pole into studs. 

I am so grateful to close out all those karmic cycles and move forward. all donexx

Im in my housewife era and embracing my motherhood has been everything. 
I had to rewire my entire being out of those cycles and its been so refreshing to take my time to heal. I won't ever be done healing, but i truly have faced anything and everything in my life has gotten better. Finally. My kids are stable and happy and our business is doing good and i dont worry about anything else.
