Hi friends! Thanks for stopping by—I’m so glad you’re here! 😁
I’ve been off for the past two weeks and living it up (well, introvert style 😂)! Unfortunately, I now seem to have a cold, so I’m not feeling (or sounding) so hot, but I didn’t want Christmas to totally fly by, so here are a few snapshots of things that brought the holiday sparkle!
(Not including the “same day delivery” humidifier that I ordered at 3:30 AM yesterday. 👍)
Let’s start with the most amazing Christmas gift I could ever hope to receive, courtesy of my bffl. WHAT. A MASTERPIECE. I am just this person now! 😂 In all seriousness, I really like clothes, jewelry, etc. that feel emotionally comforting, so this is, like, beyond my wildest dreams of what could be accomplished on that front. 😭💖
IT YOU!
I was pretty uninspired with gift-buying this year, but these two eBay items were by far my best finds:
For Timmi, who has picked up “Timbits” as one of many ridiculous nicknames. 😂🫶
For my dad, who lamented his inability to go to CT Bobblehead Night pretty much all season. 😂 I don’t think it would even occur to him to get sports memorabilia on eBay!
I also managed to make a trip to the Christmas Conservatory before it got too crazy!
The purple section was obv my fave.
There were a million varieties of poinsettias, of course…
but there were also these Malibu Barbie cyclamen, which is, ah, a choice at Christmastime—but one that I can fully support! 💖💜
I can’t believe 2022 is over tomorrow. As much as it held some really hard moments, it had a lot of good ones too. I’ve become more able to do what I want, even if I have to do it alone, even if it “scares” me. I want to bring this sudden emergence of “you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” energy into 2023 because it really made me feel alive in 2022. 🙌
What are you hoping to leave behind in 2022 or take with you into 2023? ✨
Happy Friday! xoxo
