around here
this week was our first week back to life after miami
miami was great
miami also totally fucked with my head and with my emotions
cause you know, the best of friends, ocean, orchids in the trees….
and although i still hate humidity, my skin doesn’t
my skin that is still somewhat in shock and in a state of itchy since moving here, was feeling all good while in miami
my hair however likes it here better
my heart is still trying to figure it all out though
coming back to asheville had me feeling like a stranger in a strange place
but then again, while in miami i felt like a tourist in a place i called home for over ten years so….
it took a couple of days for me to get back into the asheville swing of things
although the temperatures dropped this week, we had a beautiful weekend
spring has totally sprung and it is absolutely beautiful!
it helps you know?
i’ve been trying to focus not so much on what was or will be but what is
now
and maybe it’s not so important where you live rather than what you experience while living there?
like spring
now
sometimes i get so caught up in trying to own a house and root the family that i completely stress myself out over what’s to come
and although those things are important, so is now
because now is really good right now
happy friday and happy weekend friends!
ps- go catch some rainbows!
spring has sprung. blooms for days
frustrating after school scooter rides by the river. i don’t want to talk about it
a full moon
miami beach days
a miami beach sleepy morning after a sleepover at DD’s
miami easter morning
a wonderful afternoon with miami friends
across the street from our house. azalea
in front of our house. dogwood
front porch hangs. Lily loves the boots the easter bunny left her
it took six months but we finally have her back. yes!

i talked with my man about the importance to own a house yesterday, we can’t invest money and time in here because we’re renting, so everything’s half made and cheaply made. because it isn’t ours. we’re waiting for the medical insurance to finally pay (my man had an accident at work a long ago) but it’s taking too much time…

@Mirari,
settlements always take so long…. i hope it gets sorted out soon. i know how you feel about renting. i’m tired of it too. so much i want to do in “our” home one day. xx

compreendo-te! normalmente dizem que “home is where your hear is”… mas às vezes o nosso coração pode estar em diferentes sitios.
às vezes pergunto-me “será assim tão importante sentir-se “em casa””, ou não bastará apenas aproveitar o melhor do sitio em que estamos NOW :))
aproveita, a primavera aí é linda. e já sabes, podes sempre mudar de ideias e voltar para miami (um dia)
bjs!
