Change in Progress

September 14, 2019 / starryeyednikki / Leave a comment

  Change is a constant. We're all works in progress — myself included. I've been working on reinventing myself and as a result, the blog is going to get a little bit of reinventing as well. Stay tuned. I'll be back soon. -N.

  I turned 35 on January 18. I spent the day surrounded by best friends. I laughed and smiled and had an amazing time, and the love I felt was enough to make my heart feel like it was going to explode. I had no idea that my life would look like it does at … Continue reading Dear Nikki

Autumn is my favorite season. I love the crisp air and the changing leaves. Tank tops get traded for comfy sweaters and knee boots replace flats. Hot drinks warm chilled fingers and the whole atmosphere changes. 🍁🍂 • Today was all about self care. Mom and I drove to Duluth to grab special batch cherry beer from Fitger’s Brewhouse. Got some balsamic vinegars from Duluth Kitchen Company. Then, spent time in nature, enjoying the fresh air and beautiful scenery along Seven Bridges Road. • I always feel energized and at peace after being outside, in the woods, and on the North Shore. • How did you take care of yourself today? • #Minnesota #Duluth #captureminnesota #sevenbridgesroad #northcountry #minnesotagirl #minnesotabornandraised #naturegirl #nature_captures #autumn #autumnvibes #selfcare #selfcaresaturday #autumncolors #autumnleaves #minneapoliswriter #blogger #bloggerchic #minneapolisblogger #minnesotablogger #minnesotagrammers #bloggercommunity #bloggerdiaries #bloggergram #minneapolisgirlwrites #cherrybeer #fitgersbrewhouse #craftbeer

I’ve had more pantsless cupcake days than Peloton days lately. Am I proud of this? Not really, because I had a great, balanced routine going. Am I beating myself up over it? Absolutely not. • As women, we’re constantly told we have to look a certain way, act a certain way, do certain things. And if we don’t? Society beats us up and we’re expected to feel guilty. My opinion on this? F-u, society. • Life truly is all about balance. And right now, I’m a little off balance, but with some self-care and mindfulness and goal setting, I know it won’t be long before I’m back in the routine I established. • Life is short. Eat the cupcake. 😉
Can I go back to Portland now? Loved this afternoon spent exploring Forest Park. 😍 • It’s been a minute. I’m still here and kicking. I needed a bit of a break from IG and now I feel refreshed and ready to come back to this social media platform. • Tell me something new in your world. ⤵️ • #minneapolisgirlwrites #minnesotagirl #mentalhealthadvocate #mentalhealthblogger #minnesotablogger #plussizeandproud #biggirlsrock #biggirlswinning #writingismyfreedom #writingislove #writingistherapy #mentalhealthprofessional #disabilityadvocate #aquaricorn #aquariuscapricorncusp #capricornaquariuscusp #cancermoon #girlswithtatts #shesback #forestparkportland #takemetoportland #socialmediabreak #backtoig #blogpostscomingsoon #instafamilylove
