Weekend Links

Happy Sunday! It's been a quiet couple of weeks over here... because life has been really fu*&ing busy. Last weekend I celebrated my birthday and we've spent the past four days painting our new place... and we're so totally not done yet. It's a surreal feeling, as though Chris and I have been running a weird marathon for the past 7 months (really for the past * almost * year) that's finally sort of coming to an end. But only sort of, because really it isn't... maybe we're just at a much-needed hydration station of life? Ha! I think that could be a good way of looking at things, because, you know... life has it's up and downs or maybe sprints and rests... I don't know... anyway! I'm keeping my fingers crossed we get moved in by mid-week. As much as it's been a godsend to stay with my mom these past several months, I'm ready to be in my own place again – and decorate. I feel like it's rare to have the opportunity to start over in a sense, and we're planning to make the most of it. Have a lovely week!

Speaking of self care - Tether Yourself (a concept for teens that I believe we should all adopt)

Think it's chocolate? Think again. How carob traumatized a generation. This made me laugh.

February wishlist: a pair of cozy pjs, some nice weather so I can wear walkable slides and a great pair of jeans, and a goes-with-everything minimalist bag

These vintage drawer knobs would be pretty on a rehabbed dresser or even reimagined as coat hooks

Spring in Maine is so far away but I can't stop dreaming about it - love this embroidered jacket and these cute as heck jeans
