What could possibly make the Christmas season better in my opinion? Cats, of course! So cue the Yule Cat or Jólakötturinn, a giant cat from Nordic folklore that prowls the snowy countryside during yuletide and snatches up unsuspecting children who haven't received new clothes that year! This seemed like the perfect story to bring back... Continue Reading →
Ok, but really...how are we at the END of 2021, already?! I'm both upset that another year has sped on by, but also celebrating that I've been actively journaling all year and have 12 months of journal prompts to show for it! So naturally, it's time for the last round of journal prompts for 2021:... Continue Reading →
November is blowing in and that means new journal prompts! Nothing too new or crazy this month. I think I might have finally found my groove with this mix of prompt styles throughout the week and will probably finish out 2021 that way. I've not always been writing during the "Free Write" days lately either.... Continue Reading →
When I say I've been planning my latest video for over a year, I mean it. I've been eyeing zip-tie crown DIYs on Pinterest for a while, and when I saw a celestial-themed cape in Target's 2020 Halloween drop, I was so excited I even preordered it. (I'm the type of girl who loves Halloween/fall... Continue Reading →
Wanting to disconnect from social media isn't a new notion for me. I usually have at least a week or two out of the year that I decide I'll delete all my social apps and be FREE. But I never go as far to delete my entire profiles. (Being an internet "creator" means I can't... Continue Reading →
October means the start of SPOOKY SZN, baby! And that's reflected in this month's prompts (because it's my favorite time of year! Do I say that a lot? Maybe...) We've got the usual smorgasbord of prompt types (i.e. writing, doodle, photo, and free days). And lots of Halloween and autumn-themed prompts to get you in... Continue Reading →
I had the idea to start a 90s-themed craft series on my YouTube channel several years ago, but like most of the topics I'm more passionate about, I get nervous that they'll be too much work for too little reward. But between the start of the my 30s being very childhood-nostalgia centric and giving myself... Continue Reading →
This week's new video started out a lot longer and different than what ultimately ended up being uploaded: https://youtu.be/4mK7oNWNQCI After seven months without posting videos, I thought it might be fun to create a "What I've Been Up to in 2021 So Far" type of video. Even though I wasn't making videos for the first... Continue Reading →
Well we're really into the back half of 2021 now, aren't we? This is both a frustrating development for me (there are so many things I haven't done yet!), and a good place for reflection (look at what I *have* accomplished and stayed consistent with all year!) Daily journaling has been one of the bright... Continue Reading →
https://youtu.be/GavWuguPhwY I’ve been challenging myself to periodically write a poem as part of my daily journaling practice. The prompt "Write about your favorite smell" felt like the perfect moment for a poem so I wrote this: But when thinking about videos for August, I remembered I had some pool footage I shot last summer and...
