What a busy month. October has been work work work, so having some relaxing chill time has been amazing. Having a dog has also really helped me stay present and in the moment. I understand that deadlines loom and tasks have to be completed, yet Artemis has somehow drawn me back to notice what's really [...]

September 2022
So September has been an exhausting and tiring month - our first full month after adopting a fur ball, as well as some new work responsibilities racking up. Reading back on my daily gratitudes it appears I needed a lot of rest and recuperation. I'm grateful that I'm learning to ask for help and support [...]
