Finally getting my head above water to catch up on substack and DAMN ive missed your writing. enjoy that ice cream for dinner and please know that your galentines day brunch for your daughter will live rent free in my head for a long time <3
I was hooked from the very first second, partly because I really enjoy the way you write but also because: phew, I'm not the only one managing a circus right now! But you're actually hosting events on top of it all, too, aaaaaandddddd looking the cutest in overalls? You're doing a great job. I hope your baby is feeling so much better!
I’ll say it again, so so jealous you don’t look like super Mario in overalls! I too am so so sick of this long winter but James Taylor helps. For now, the best we can do is make a giant pot of tea and listen to James Taylor and maybe get around to booking that vacation 😉
The cold is killing me this year. And I woke up to another dusting of snow this morning that was not on my radar! I wish we had the time and money to fly somewhere warmer in February but I usually make do with a trip to the gym sauna and hot tub every week. Love the white overalls. I’ll have to dig my old pair out of the back of the closet this week. Also the old navy barrels look so good on you! I like how they hit at the ankle. Hope you get a nice day off today and maybe tmw for lunar new year?
I was also surprised by this snow! I woke up and it was all cute and pretty, trying to convince me that it’s not slowly crushing my spirit 😂 I really need to find my way to a sauna, I think you’ve got the right idea.
Re: Old Navy, a lot of their stuff doesn’t hold up but I have actually found their jeans and some pants to be pretty solid — the overalls are 5+ years old. I’m only 5’1” and don’t want to have to tailor everything, so I appreciate that they have a good petite selection online.
I am SO proud of you, Tricia! There is (as always) so much to love in this post — your overalls, the NARS concealer, the lotion bar, and the playlist I can’t wait to rock out to in my bloodwork waiting room today.
I hope everyone is feeling better. But honestly? A quick thank you… thank you for the reminder (yet again) to create our own community. Even when it feels scary to put ourselves out there (even if it’s a kinder party), the results are so special.
Hope you are feeling better and the kids too. What week, but you survived!! For that lingering cough do a syrup of onion juice and honey. Those are my witch potions my husband always laughs but they do work ha! All outfits cute 🥰
Thank you Jaymee! I highly recommend the party, they mostly just played on their own and parents got to chat and relax. Just maybe not hosting in the middle of cold/flu season for your own sanity 😂
Your outfits are amazing (the overalls are my favorite, such a happy outfit!) but girl you have been through it! And you hosted? Must be youth. Thanks for linking my knitting post….always happy when someone else is thinking of starting. Let me know if you have any questions (and join the Knitting for Beginners group if you’re on Facebook - the folks there are amaaaazing!) ♥️
Wow sounds like a WEEK but you wouldn’t know it from these pics! I love that you hosted a kindergarten galentines (looks adorableee) and you are preaching to the choir about this winter. I don’t mind the cold or snow either but it’s the sickness and school closures that get me!! And the lack of sun. Hang in there!! So glad you got to acupuncture - another favorite practice I’d like to get back to as well ❤️
Bowing down at everything you’ve done this week, I hope you have an easy one to counter — balance always 💕loving those Mary Janes in your outfits, they add something gorgeous to the silhouette. And appreciate the shoutout!

sending you love during this relentless cold ❤️😘
Srsly I wish I could wear overalls like that
I am very inspired by you! 💘 I love how special you made Valentine’s Day. I want to do that for my son once he’s a bit older.
You’re an incredible mom!

Aw, thank you Traci! Coming from Substack’s Chief Community Builder, that’s an amazing compliment 😭 Hope you’re enjoying the day off today!
you accomplished so much 👏🏻 and what a sweet valentines memory 💘
Thank you! We all could use a little more celebrating, I think ♥️
couldn’t agree more!
Hope you are feeling better and the kids too. What week, but you survived!! For that lingering cough do a syrup of onion juice and honey. Those are my witch potions my husband always laughs but they do work ha! All outfits cute 🥰
Thank you Natalia! I may have to try that, I’m not above witchy potions lol
Try it and report back ha!
I’m so impressed with the kinder party. I wish I would have done that for my daughter! Also love the outfits!

Oooh thanks for the tip! I have dabbled in knitting but I’ve never successfully finished anything. I’m so impressed by you making whole sweaters!

Yes, the endless runny noses! This winter feels one hundred years long. I hope your time in the sunshine this week helps 🧡

I mean… I’m solo parenting my 3 today and there’s no school or daycare. I sincerely hope it’s better for you 🙃
That is the opposite of a day off, I’m sending thoughts and prayers 😳
🤣 it’ll be okay, whenever I know I’ll be solo I immediately link up with friends. 3 mums are better than one! Hope you get some rest today 💙
Thank you Nicole! Starting with a long weekend has to help, right?
