Aaaand.. back again after a couple of months!

I didn’t realize how much I missed writing little life updates like this until now. 🥹

A lot has been happening quietly behind the scenes lately: mostly ideas, plans and things I’ve been slowly trying to build for myself. Nothing I’m fully ready to talk about yet, but for the first time in a while, it feels like things are finally moving instead of just staying inside my notebook.

Last weekend was amazing.. it felt very productive in a calm and realistic way. 

I recently got a Cricut machine and I’ve been spending my spare time learning how to use it. 🤓

Still very much in the “testing everything and figuring things out” stage, but honestly, it’s been really fun. That’s actually one of the reasons why I started making stickers and temporary tattoos for my toddler this weekend.. 😅 partly for her, partly because I wanted to experiment and create little things again. 😌✂️ 

I also had a paint-by-number 🎨 session with my friends.. which turned out to be one of those simple weekends that recharge you more than you expect! I prepared the table with some nice setup and food and we were just painting, talking, laughing.. all while sipping down some girly drinks. 😉🥂

My Sunday was extra nice too! Had a small dinner out with my kid, did a little shopping, then ended the night with a movie by myself. 🍿 I watched The Devil Wears Prada 2. It was one of the movies that I really never expect to have a part 2.. but also lowkey wishing there will be.. And then after 20 years!!!! Who would’ve expected that there will be?? I didn’t!

Honestly, it was a great surprise.

It also felt amazing to watch a movie alone in the cinema again after such a long time! 💪🏽🎥 There’s something really nice about doing little things by yourself sometimes.

(Also, I already knew my husband wouldn’t enjoy that kind of movie anyway, so he just stayed at home with our kid instead. 😉 — that’s why mama had an alone time 😂😝) #grateful

It was one of those small, quiet moments where you suddenly realize life has been feeling a little fuller lately. 💗

Overall, I think.. last weekend reminded me that progress doesn’t always have to be loud. 

Sometimes it looks like trying new hobbies, learning new tools, creating tiny things, spending time with people you love and slowly becoming excited about your life again.❣️
