Hey, hey! This past week was pretty uneventful lol. Just been laying low and living life. Nothing really to share other than some pictures. Hope you enjoy!

  1. Tuesdays in August vibes.

  2. Some books I am reading. Some I’ve yet to start.

  3. Have you ever seen a decked out pot hole? You’re welcome.

  4. Rosie.

  5. Some pictures from the gym. I’m working on a new routine and have been locked tf in.

I hope you enjoy the remainder of your week. Remember to try and do something for yourself at least once a day. Whether that’s reading the first page of that book you’ve been meaning to read for months, or something as simple as taking the nap over going out. It’s important to make yourself a priority.

Love, light, the shadow too—-Cin.

Hi! Thanks for your patience with the posts. My goal is to have one up every Tuesday, but life happens. I’ve been busy at the gym, and just with life in general. I am still in hermit mode but slowly coming out. I am missing interacting with others. But I am being gentle, and patient about it. Being intentional with my energy and time.

I hope you have a great weekend! Enjoy the pics.

  1. Xenia sent me and Adrian a goody box last October. And this was inside of it. I’ll admit that I didn’t know what it was.

  2. And then I saw a video on Twitter (will not refer to it as X) and it explained that it’s a little activity and tool to help you calm down when you’re feeling anxious. You organize the books (they’re real titles!) on the shelves and this helps you focus on the task at hand and not your thoughts or the way your body is feeling. I tried it and it’s pretty neat.

  3. My avocado toast has become a sandwich lol. Mine tastes so good because I add oregano, cilantro, and parsley, and a little bit of salt. Also pictured is a protein shake. I was going to the gym earlier that day and needed the little boost.

  4. A little decor at a local gardening shop.

  5. This is a throwback picture of myself. Loved how my hair looked.

  6. This is Topanga. Annie’s new French Bulldog. She is very smart too! Already responds to her name, and is ringing the bell to be let outside to take care of her business.

  7. This is an Ariana Grande parfum that Adrian gifted me in February. He was so happy and proud of himself.

  8. This is my little collection of Parfums from over the years. I have mini bottles too, not pictured here. I like florals, warm vanilla scents, and to smell like baked goods lmao.

  9. New conditioner from a new line that I tried. It’s by Tracee Ellis Ross. I’ve been told I look like her in the past due to our big eyes. I liked the conditioner so much that I added the leave in to my routine.

  10. Here you see my coconut oil that I allowed to melt and added some castor oil to it. I am never ashy, lol. It gives such a beautiful glow too. I mean, look at my hand!

  11. And a sweet treat. I won’t be having any for a while. I have goals to meet.

Again, thank you for your patience and thanks for stopping by!

Love, light, the shadow too—- Cin.
