Murals in Dan Patch park at the 2026 MN state fair.
Absolutely resonated with these 4 paintings. Ive been moving through this world filled with emotions and realizations that are allowing me to feel whole.

The first painting reminds me of all the magical and wonder I had lost within myself. This year I have been finding myself and my purpose again. Through creativity and falling back on the happiness I found in child like wonder.

The second painting directly relates to one of my favorite movies growing up, The Road to Eldorado. Which I have been actively going through the motions of moving towards. This correlates to a dream that I had in 2010, that story is not quite ready yet. Parts are still unfolding.

The 3rd mural gives me hope for what is yet to come. Through all the realizations, trauma and experiences I have gone through I know there is a light at the end of all of this. We do not need to know everything in the moment. You dont know what you know until you know it.

And the last one solidifies how amazing this life can be when you put yourself first. Though all the hardships the thing that has kept me going was a wish I made durring the 2024 eclipse. Watching my dreams unfold 16 years after I began writing them down has been miraculous. Everything happens for a reason, yet we have to choose to see those reasons. Disect them to understand what has been in front of us all along. The beliefs that hold us back or propel us forward. There is no rush. We get to where we are going and the time it takes to get there is important. The lessons I learned nearly broke me, however I understand that I was the one who created them for myself.
We all did.
Everything that has ever happened to you was done for you, by you. And when you realize how it has shaped you into the person you are today it allows you to be free.

Forgive yourself. Forgive the people who wronged you because it was all agreed upon before we arrived. When you forgive yourself you can release the negative and make space for what was always ment for you.

Enjoy the week, you deserve peace.

Little garden tour checking out my plants 😁
I took an evening and fixed up my 420 plants. Put bricks in the pots because we had a few windy days that knocked them over. Gave the plants some well deserved TLC trimming fan leaves and cutting off pest damaged buds. The worms will turn the buds brown, eating them from the inside out. Ive been spraying caption jack bug be gone spray and I do think its helping but I should have been more on it. Playing catch up from working 12 days in a row at the fair!
Its saturday, going to take it easy. Maybe ill go to the farmers market maybe I wont. Time for coffee and crochetting while enjoying the gloomy fall mornings.
Hope you have a great weekend!

On 4/20 I quit my job at Amazon.
I woke up this morning and felt that I needed to see what I wrote in my journal around this time.
I was so fed up with people in my life not believing in me. I knew i needed to start living for myself and stop putting others ahead of myself. My goals and dreams were important too. I had become a secondary role in my own life.. I wanted to be the main character again.
What started as days carried into weeks of working on building this coop. I was making videos and having fun. I didnt have a plan, and I didnt need need a plan either. Because building the chicken coop was more then just housing birds and becoming self sufficient.
It was about rebuilding who I am and what I want for myself. I took my time, I made mistakes, I learned how to use the saw blade.
I was learning to trust myself again, I was being creative. I had a vision in my head and just wanted to go with the flow. I knew in my heart everything was going to work out perfectly, and it did.
Deep down I wanted help and recognition that I was doing a good job, instead I was met with a sour taste of what my life would be like if I didnt continue to change for myself and for my future.
I stopped building the coop because I didnt need to anymore.
I was busy doing other things. For a long time I would look at it and feel sad, like I was a failure for not following through. But its okay to stop putting all your efforts into something that is not working anymore. Its okay to recognize half way through that you made mistakes along the way and you need to start over.
There was no roof, the bugs had free will too, and they had taken it over. I didnt take care of the wood properly, didnt fasten the nails correctly in places. It was to close to the house so I dug it up and moved it over, that showed even more flaws with it. I was defeated feeling and the words that were spoken to me about this project left me feeling hurt and betrayed.

Fast forward 5 months.
My life has changed drastically, for the better. It may not be better for some people, but its better for me. Im putting myself first, im believing in myself when all the people around me and in my life only carried doubts about everything I was doing and wanting. I have learned multiple valuable lessons about myself along the way.
I decided something 5 months ago, I already wrote it down and now the feelings are solidified.
Its funny how we spend so much time trying to fix and build things. All the energy I put into building this coop far exceeded the energy requirement for taking it down.
As I was undoing all the screws I felt relieved. I am so greatful to have built this even though it didnt work out how I thought it was going to, because in the end it taught me something about myself that I would have otherwise not learned.

I was thinking about the first dream in my journal from 2010 and realized, im still living it.
I was the incent holder that broke and I was devastated. I built this coop trying to put my life back together and realized I cant keep going on the same way ive been doing it.
When I got down to the foundation I found bread crumbs. Numbers and letters I strategically placed along the way to help me remember. I didnt know what I was doing for myself when I started, but by the end of it I knew in my heart that it was exactly what I needed to do formyself in the moment and im glad to have trusted myself.

Thanks for listening.

The floor is still a mess and im content with that. Glad to finally have accomplished this task.
I just had a large jumping spider crawing all over my jeans, I wasnt afraid of it. Eventually it scurried back onto the couch into the unknown. I must have picked it up from one of the pots I was using.
Sorry to force the relocation buddy. Haha.

5 days off went by so quickly.
Yet I seemed to be dragging my feet the whole time. I DID accomplish a lot. I spent my mornings drinking coffee and crochetting. Hanging out with Dennis and Pippin. I said good bye to one of my fur babies and that was extremely difficult but truthfully I had been emotionally preparing for that for weeks.. If he was here right now I know Purcious would be cuddled up right next to me trying to get onto my lap while I crochet. I am thankful for his love but I know parting ways with him was the right choice. Its interesting how Dennis has seemed to simmer down a bit since loosing his brother.. I adopted Dennis as a companion for Purcious and as it turns out my subconscious knew I was going to be in need of a new cat for the future to come. Dennis is very spunky and outgoing. I see myself a lot in him. We share the same energy and vibe. They say cats can tell the future and I absolutely know it to be true. Purcious predicted the arm injuries I sustained last year, back in 2024. I was taking care of him in preparation of taking care of myself. Dennis always knew Purcious wasnt going to be staying forever.. He has always been sweet on Pippin, even when he is parkouring off his head, but with purcious the bond was different. It was not what I hoped and anticipated for but I understand everything worked out exactly how it was supposed to all along.
You dont know what you know until you know it.
Today is the 12th my favorite number. It means something to me even if I cant see it right now, I know its important. I waited to repot these plants TODAY for a reason, even though I have been telling myself to do it for all 5 of my days off. Life is interesting.
I hope you are enjoying the weekend and your life, with all the moments and little things.
You are enough, you are worthy.
Trust in yourself and trust that everything works out exactly how it was always supposed to.
