What do you plan to do…

with your one wild and precious life?

My brave, ballsy, ball-buster, beautiful, bossy, big-hearted mother-in-law passed away. It’s been about a month and I’m starting to get back in the swing of things. I feel guilty that I haven’t been able to keep up with my usual schedule of creating art, posting on socials, adding to my blog, etc etc etc.

I spent yesterday, the first day we’ve had no plans, sitting in the living room for hours, going through all her pictures. And as Mary Oliver says…Tell me, what else should I have done?

Sometimes you have to take a break from your routine, or from the high standards you have set for yourself. So go easy on yourself and slowly pick up where you left off.
