Where have I been? Taking a very long break, taking my own advice resting and working through summer. Why? Because since the beginning of the year it has been all about strategy, and that means managing the things that spend, like time, money, energy, time and attention.
All summer it was about deciding what events were worth the cost, what 3rd spaces give the best value. Family time, as well as scheduling needed time off for long weekends.
Prayer and the Word of GOD helped me understand how staying away from the 7 sins, I can keep my figure my sanity, my faith and my internal security.
It’s easy to over indulge in summer, stay out late and spend more. All outside fun cost every bit of the way.
What was the mood?
Colorful style. Comfortable fabrics, legs and silhouette, mixed prints, and graphic t shirts
For me it was a lazy summer, no cooking all pre maid simple veggie heavy and tofu meals.. I lived like a New Yorker and ignored my kitchen for take out, and somehow saved money .
I shopped my closet using inspired looks for inspiration.
Cash is king, I was on a budget and had to get creative with events that I attended. It wasn’t easy not having the convenience of a card, but my bank account stayed at a certain amount.
Walks through the park, conversation throughout the months about vintage Summer ideas. Movies, books to read, patios to go to, musical events
Days in..
Restful weekends most of the time spent both days in, eating take out, watching YouTube, sometimes painting, sometimes listening to music for performances..
Go Out!.
Thank you all for joining me. I have a Vintage Summer Journal on the way where I plan on emptying out my camera roll. I pray GOD blessed and protects you all in Christ Jesus name, Amen! Until next time!
