Same photošŸ‘‰šŸ¼exactly two years lateršŸ¤ Happ Same photošŸ‘‰šŸ¼exactly two years lateršŸ¤ Happy birthday babe! Somehow I got him to agree to this reenactment🤣 

It’s crazy to look at these two photos and think about how much has changed. We had no clue two years ago that we would go through so much loss...loss of our babies, loss of our house to an electrical fire, loss of the life we thought we were starting. The pain has been unbearable most days and the only reason I have gotten through it all and have been able to continue to move forward is because of this man. We have walked through unimaginable and heartbreaking experiences, things most people will never have to endure, but we always come out stronger and more connected in the end. He is my best friend and my number one confidant. I wouldn’t change our life for anything because the love that we have is so freaking special. We have experienced the lowest of lows and I cannot wait for highest of highs...in the meantime I am just so so thankful for him {and his amazing cooking skills🤤} every single day. I love youā¤ļø

I started spring cleaning a little early because I I started spring cleaning a little early because I am finally decorating my office after a year of living here! The first step was to purge/organize and these @sterilitecorporation ClearView Latch Boxes made it so easy and functional! I love that they are clear to easily identify what is in them and the latches secure them closed to stack on top of eachother! Swipe to see the before picture🄓 Not much makes me happier than getting everything in its place and I will be doing the same throughout the rest of my house! These are the 6 qt and 15 qt, the perfect sizes for a project like this! I can’t wait to share the rest of the space once it’s completešŸ¤

Gangs all here🄰 We are watching my parents dog Gangs all here🄰
We are watching my parents dog this week and he has never seen a cat before sooo it’s been interesting . Lots of stand offs, growling and confusion. Clark is usually stuck in the middle trying to mediate the situationšŸ˜‚ Do we think Mable and Fish will be bffs by the end of the week?!

I am testing out these amazon leggings that were recommended to me by one of you and my first impression is I love them! I’m headed to workout so we will see if they pass the sweat test and the do they stay in place without having to keep pulling them up test šŸƒā€ā™€ļø
Getting our bedroom put together...very slowly. Th Getting our bedroom put together...very slowly. The newest addition is the plug-in wall sconces, so easy to install and I love how it eliminates clutter on our nightstands. I have a diffuser and a sound machine on mine so all that real estate is already takenšŸ˜† Next on the list is a dresser! It is getting so cozy in herešŸ’•

The Daily Stoic February 17th The Enemy Of Happine The Daily Stoic February 17th
The Enemy Of Happiness
ā€œIt is quite impossible to unite happiness with a yearning for what we don’t have. Happiness has all that it wants, and resembling the well-fed, there shouldn’t be hunger or thirstā€ -Epictetus, Discourses, 3.24.17

ā€˜I’ll be happy when I graduate, we tell ourselves. I’ll be happy when I get this promotion, when this diet pays off, when I have the money I think my parents never had. Conditional happiness is what psychologists call this kind of thinking. Like the horizon, you can walk for miles and miles and never reach it. You won’t even get any closer. 
Eagerly anticipating some future event, passionately imagining something you desire, looking forward to some happy scenario — as pleasurable as these activities might seem, they ruin your chance at happiness here and now. Locate the yearning for more, better, someday and see it for what it is: the enemy of your contentment. Choose it or your happiness. As Epictetus says, the two are not compatible.’ 

Read. That. Again. šŸ‘šŸ¼

I started The Daily Stoic again this year. This one really resonated with me so I thought it was worth sharing. šŸ¤
Pretty much sums life up latelyšŸ¤“ I’m sure I’m not the only one still living in lounge sets and going from the couch to my desk {aka the dining room table} to work, right?! The snow is sooo beautiful but I could definitely use some sunshine right about now, doesn’t look like that is happening for a while so I will settle for a snowy walk around the neighborhood with C!

If you are in the market for another comfy set this one is $15 per piece and comes in lots of colors! Everything in this photo is linked in @liketoknow.it or click the link in my biošŸ¤ ILY!!
