Sooo, that was a pretty long opening today!

There's more to come, too!

I applied very tentatively to Lumae Skins as a blogger, and I'm super proud because I was accepted! So this gorgeous purpley skin is currently available at Lumae, and there are more details below.

Check out all the things I've been working on today!

xoxo

Lumae has an absolutely STUNNING amount of options for many heads. I'm currently using Lona by Catwa, and the Catwa applier from the skin options.

Shown here are the no freckle options with the version 1 eyebrows.

Aaaand here are the version 2 eyebrows shown with the freckle options.

It's worth noting that you can use both eyebrow options with the freckles or no freckle skin bases, so be sure to check out ALL the options available for you!

My whole little mental health journey is taking some interesting turns.

It's become apparent to me that there are far more negative energies in me that I was aware of. I mean, I know I'm not perfect - show me someone who is, but recently I have really begun to notice some disturbing patterns. It's not malicious, but sometimes I am hurting so much because of some ridiculous ideals I have in my head, I end up purposefully causing pain to someone else. Misery loves company, right?

Let me explain a little more.

I am not delusional enough to think that I am always right, but part of me is delusional enough to think that I am always right. That means there's a constant struggle in me, the knowing deep down that 1. I cannot control other people and their reactions to my actions and/or words, and 2. sometimes, I'm the toxic one.

Naturally, that fills me with absolute fear, because I don't WANT to be toxic, ever.

Ultimately, now I have recognized these disturbing bad habits, my goal is to change the way I approach those situations. I'm pretty old now, so undoing that amount of "oops no" is gonna be pretty tough, but it's baby steps! As with everything I am discovering about myself and the world around me, I am going to be taking three steps forwards.. before freewheeling two steps back and then starting again.

I'm grateful for those who see the good in me, regardless of my ew, and have been reminded regularly of the quote;

"What you value, you invest in."

and sometimes, you need to invest in you.

Regardless of when Autumn/Fall actually begins, it's fairly obvious that Summer is drawing to a close and the time for cooler days, darker nights and crunching leaves underfoot is getting closer.

For that reason, today you'll find Pickle relishing in a few rays of sunshine as she relaxes on the back of a gorgeous fairground horse.

Happy Monday, guys. Here's hoping the start of your week is filled with love and light.
