things i love thursday
<3<3<3 things i love <3<3<3
~hanging with my mama and mandie... they are so lovely and silly and fun and amazing people! we went to the summer fair last night and had a fun time just walking around, looking at all the massive amounts of people, checking out all of the animals and talking to them (cute bunnies and sheep and cows and chickens! i couldn't stop saying 'cute'!), eating churros and giant curly fries (yummy at the time but not again), and riding on the ferris wheel! mandie and i were kind of scared because of the height, so for some reason we started laughing and laughing and couldn't stop! we laughed until we cried, because we were both being so silly and gripping the center pole for dear life.
~seeing all of the animals at the fair and not being able to decide between wanting to cry because they were locked up and in cages, or wanting to smile and laugh because they were so cute!
~gala darling! i love her website, her bright pink cottoncandy/rainbowbrite/barbie hair, her perspective on life and all the amazing things in it... she just sounds lovely and i'm always inspired by her thoughts and creations and attitude. i don't care if i sound silly.. i know i don't know her personally but she portrays herself as beautiful and inspiring and unique!
~pink hair dye.... i might be dying some strands of my hair pink if i find a shade i like. i would rather go to a salon rather than do it myself, but i'm a diy kind of girl and it's much cheaper and simpler to do it for myself, so we will see what i discover at the store today! all in all, i want it to be subtle and lovely and gentle, not totally crazy and bright and harsh.
~onyx! my beautiful and healthy and amazing baby boy! he will always be my first love and priority. i'm so excited to meet him in december! this makes winter time that much more exciting (i'm not too fond of the cold weather).
~reading kryon's new channelings on kyron.com. i read the most recent one a few days ago and it was inspiring and helped me to alter my perspective.. it helped to uplift me :) so many things that i always learn and understand when i read them! they encourage me to feel strong and creative and powerful... i am a human being and i can do any amazing thing that i truly want to do <3
~spending the night with my mama <3 who wants to be away from someone they love.. their lover and soulmate who they sleep with every night? not many.. but for me, it feels healthy. i love the space... to be me away from sam, to make my own choices away from what his opinion may be... and my mama is lovely. always beautiful to be around.
~learning that i have a treasure chest in my past lives.. that i can pull out whatever i want and need from them and apply it to this body, this person, this lifetime, anytime..
~heidi! super cute girl who i can connect to so easily <3 she has so many friends and people who flock around her and i can definitely see why. she's so lovely and sweet! she's going to have a costume party at the end of this month because she's going away to guatemala and central america for 3 months starting in september, so i'm excited because i'm hopefully going to be a mermaid. i have a gorgeous, high-quality mermaid costume that i've never worn before, so i'm hoping it fits the belly so i can wear it. sam's going to be a pirate so it would be a perfect match :) heidi's going to be the mad hatter from alice in wonderland, and our friend lori is going to be max from 'where the wild things are.' lori crocheted her hood with ears and it's the cutest thing ever! super amazing and inspiring girls.
~cleaning house and clearing space! sam and i finally went through all of the junk that has been piled up in the corners of our house since we moved in 2 years ago and now it feels so lovely and breathable and clear. another step to getting our house ready for onyx's arrival <3
~mandie's ultrasound photos of baby sairis! she found out that she's having a boy and that everything is perfectly healthy with her and sairis, so i'm very excited and thankful! it's so beautiful and magical sharing this with her.. we have become best friends through this and i'm so glad that both of our dreams have come true. he's really cute too.. he looks a lot like her fiance, who is asian. our lives are magical and perfect :)
~planning for the baby shower in september.. the invitations my mama has designed and created are so lovely and beautiful. they have pregnant faeries on them done in colored pencil, and a winter-time landscape with snow-covered mountains and holly berries, because both of our babies will be due in the winter months. we came up with some silly games and bought all the prizes for them, and mandie's lover's mama is going to make all of food.. she's from laos so it's all going to be ethnic, asian food like egg rolls and noodles and all of that yummy stuff.. my mama knows someone who does catering and bakes delicious, beautiful cakes, so we're going to have a huge strawberry cake too. the only thing left now is to send out the invites.
~kundalini yoga. i have been taking this free yoga class and it has been amazing... very strengthening, very relaxing, very gentle and pure. it's been the same format each time i've went, so i'm getting a little antsy for different moves, but i am still enjoying it immensely. and it's free.. i shouldn't complain :)
~thrift store shopping.. i went with my mama and mandie on monday and found some very cute things, for a very good price. all good things can be found second-hand and recycled! there are very few things that i will buy brand new. it can be such a waste! and i want to try and re-use as many items as possible.. it's so much better for the earth to consume less.. things that have already been used and worn, but are still in decent shape. and when i want to let go of clothing or items that i don't want or need anymore, i either have a clothing trade with some friends, take them to a consignment shop, or donate them to charity-based stores like the humane society second-hand shop. some things do get thrown away, and when that happens, i feel sad and guilty... like i know i can do much better for my mother earth who i love and respect and appreciate.
~pizza and music on friday with my girls!
~hazel, my mama's baby finch.. she found her outside after she broke a leg, and my mama nursed her back into health and healed her leg with a home-made splint made from a toothpick and some tape. now my mama is just waiting to set her free... the finches have migrated so my mama doesn't want to let her out into the wild without other birds of her kind, so she might be a pet for a while. she seems very happy and my mama lets her fly around and look out the windows at the other birds.. she's so cute and funny and fascinating to watch. she sings the sweetest little songs too.
