Personal post: Struggling. We are not our best selves in the best of ways and it’s because of all the non-stop battles and tests, purely the struggle. Just getting up in the morning is difficult somedays. Other days it’s exciting, till that wears off and it feels like we need a few weeks of recovery energy… we fight to do it. Bear with me cause words are hard.
Like a lot of people right now even Chris has been struggling hard with his mental health and overcoming. This has been a big part of our focus, to make sure he is okay. “Then life is like ‘hey guess what?’…and then bam!” (Theo Von). More life things keep on lifing and we lost one of our dogs this week that he has had for the last 13 years.
We fight every day to be the best and do the most, especially for the important things like keep our daughter well taken care of. Plus, let her do more things, while also experiencing and giving her that feeling of stability and safety. Needless to say, to provide for her, her necessities and unknowing of what struggles adults face.
The reality is sometimes we all struggle to keep up with everything all at once. Sometimes you weigh whats important and sometimes you fold within.
A constant battle is upkeep even, Do we fold the laundry or let her hang out with her friends in the front, and play? Yes work is always important (and we are guilty of in between “watch this!” Working on our phones to prep for working when she is down..and there are times even during the day that are non-negotiable focus times, but balancing and weighing is my point. Which we are avidly trying to get that back on track too.
Fighting to keep our shop going, fulfill and maintain the open orders or questions and updates, which most dont seem to receive. All while also focusing on adding income stability of jobs (if any ever pan out)…assuring family and friends we are jot aboiding them or mad. Plus, clearing out and purging our home.. and just surviving…so in honor of and the whole point of the post is lifting the veil and you are not alone. We’re working through all of it, to get everything on track.
With that, here is some mighty progress (not all of it), but us showing a more personal side. We are not perfect and we are trying…but give it some credit cause financially this is the start and in this heat. My gawdddd! Plus, lets relish in accomplishments and that its not all about the aesthetic life.
We’re stressed, depressed and literally fighting everyday like all of us are. So heres some small progress, and how we are slowly but surely getting it all together in a neat bow.
Sometimes it’s the fact that at least we are trying non stop, to not give up! 🤍💙🩵
