"Start where you are" is one of my FAVORITE things to say! But I find that a lot of people don't understand this concept or how to approach it. Our society encourages the misinformation that you have to Be Better, Make More, Climb Higher, and have the exact Right Tool and Circumstance in order to ACTUALLY be happy and satisfied in your life. More more more! I try to encourage doing more with less, both for myself and others. Start with a pen and paper. Start with a crappy computer. Start with a cactus. Just START ❤ the understanding comes with experience 😄
YESSS to this 1000%!! ❤️ I couldn't agree more, and you are so right that the understanding comes with experience--I think the achievements I'm most proud of are things I started on before I felt completely ready!
@MyMoonstoneKitchen yes yes yes! 🙌 Same! Oh my gosh, so proud of you for recognizing that and expanding on it! Change is hard but so rewarding ✨️ You are magical, dear lady. Your soul brightens the world
I’ve always been a ‘gatherer’….. gather all I need for a project, whether it be cooking or painting or drawing. I’ve only heard of the concept of ‘start where you are’ when I did a course around Covid time. I still didn’t really get it. Three weeks ago I moved house and put all my precious belongings into a storage shed (clothes, my grandmother’s jewellery, and mine, my mother’s paintings, all my paintings and artwork and my whole art studio, iPads, sewing machine, kitchen pantry, bed, bedding…), then went on a break for a week. Five days after I put my precious things in the storage shed, it and 130 other storage sheds burnt to the ground and I lost the lot. No insurance. A friend bought me a blank art book, 2 other friends bought $100 vouchers each from the art shop I frequent, so now I have pencils, an eraser and a sharpener. - Now I start with what I have. And I get the meaning…. I’m going to draw trees with graphite (see Mike Sibley), because when I get really good at them, I can also paint them. So building from the ground up, with what I have. Not a bad exercise. Love your videos, and I’ve just Subscribed.
I want to express my gratitude, Haley for the incredible vulnerability you share through your content. Your authenticity and courage in revealing your true self are profoundly inspiring and deeply moving. Like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day, your words and insights illuminate the lives of so many. Your willingness to be open and honest is a testament to your strength and compassion. May you continue to find light and joy this weekend!!
Laurie!! Your comment brought happy tears to my eyes--thank you SO much for all of your kind words 🥰 YOU are like a ray of sunshine to me!! Your thoughtful messages always make my days so much brighter. Sending you the biggest virtual hug ❤️
I just found your account. Now I'm really obsessed with these comforting, calm videos. I wanted these kind of calm videos. It really gave me happy and peace.Thank you so much. Love you ♥️
I think a lot of us are feeling this way lately. I often feel like I start to get ahead on where I want to be in life and then something always stops me from continuing on. Something I'm practicing is not getting down on myself about that and just picking up where I left off instead of giving up. You always make food and drinks look so wonderful! I hope you start to feel better, you deserve goodness. Be blessed.
I love what you said about picking up where you left off instead of giving up--this is wonderful advice ❤️ Thank you so much for your well wishes--sending you virtual hugs!
Always so many beautiful parts to your videos. I always feel better to get right up, make bed, put on a nice outfit and my jewelry; and enjoy a lovely breakfast and plan the day. Looks like you do much the same to pick up your mood. I love your outfit. Your crocheting skill is coming right along. the pillow cover is beautiful.
Aww thank you so much for saying that, Jan!! ❤️ Your comments always brighten my days. Taking a little extra time to get ready at the start of the day always makes such a big difference!! And I'm so happy you liked the pillow case--thank you so much 😊
You have no idea how happy it makes me that my videos bring some comfort to your days--thank you so much, dear Sheila!! ❤️ Have an amazing weekend, my friend 🤗
Not gonna lie - your kitchen cleaning got me motivated to clean up my counter heh. I'm just coming out of a rut so it's catch up time and feels overwhelming at times.
I don’t know how I found your channel but I’m so thankful that I did! I do work from home and have every since the start of the pandemic. I’m sitting in my PJs as I type this and lately I have felt my energy start to wane. I have been thinking that perhaps I need to put on regular clothes and make up again, but I find myself in a lull, sleeping until the last moment before I start work. I’m going to try going outside in the mornings to get some fresh air as part of how I begin my days. Thank you so much I just love your channel.
U are the sweetest❤️ love all ur content but this was a really good one for me right now. Knowing I’m not alone and we all go through stuff. Hugs back at u❤️
I love to go back and rewatch your self-care videos. I have PCOS so certain weeks of the month I am completely in a rut, and not able to do much for myself. Your videos are very comforting to me.❤️
Such a lovely cosy comforting video Haley. I'm really sorry to hear you have been feeling down lately. I was feeling that way at the start of the year and it's just so horrible when you feel overwhelmed. I really do think that lack of light/sunshine as you were saying can be a big factor in this. Congrats on making this beautiful video when you probably didn't feel like it and for being honest and speaking out about feeling down. I'm a Mental Health First Aider and always encouraging people to talk about how they feel. I am glad you have your lovely fiance to talk to. Your cushion cover is so professional, I'm really impressed! I hope you start to feel better soon, you seem like a such a lovely person and you deserve to be happy and all the success of your gorgeous TH-cam channel ❤ sending good vibes your way ❤
Farrah, your message truly made my day so much brighter--thank you so much for your words of encouragement!! ❤️ I completely agree with you about feeling down due to lack of sunshine, and I am already feeling much better after a few warm, sunny days! Thank you so much for the important work you do helping others as a Mental Health First Aider ❤️ I am sending you the biggest virtual hug--have a wonderful week, my friend! 🥰
❤Lovely video about an important subject....Selfcare!!! We were educated-when I studied classical ballett...to allways look after ourselfs....not because of vanity or self-indugence-but in order to perform beautifully... You hit the subject perfectly...with your walk in nature...the healthy and delicious food and drinks...the music and the calming down crocher-we were knitting at the time-allways!!! And you looked beautiful in your frilly white dress and boots.. and long hair....exactly my look-when I was your age and performed and lived in London back in the 80ies. Wonderfully inspirational and exquisite filming. A MUST-SHARE immeduately with my students.....who loved your other ones. Much love from Germany❤
Thank you so much for your kind and beautiful message, Ricarda!! ❤️ I loveee 70s and 80s style clothing, and I was delighted to hear that you had the same look as my outfit back in the 80s! I hope your students enjoy this video--thank you so much for sharing it with them, that truly means the world to me! Sending you lots of love--have a wonderful week! ❤️
Dear Haley, thank you for this sympatic, positive and lovely video and talking so personal to all of us. your words in the end .. really "nailed" it. It s exactly what s working inside, on these special days. thank you for such kind words and beeing a wonderful role model for beeing kind to ourselves 🌻you are such a "Schatz" to the world (don`t kow the english word). ANd, LOVE the video with you and your sister, enjoying your "practical magic"-evening ♥ All the best, from Germany. Melanie
I love your Moon Journal - I too have used these for my journaling in the past, and find they are beautiful books to use. Your crochet is stunning, I love the little Granny squares you made, then the way you put them all together, so very clever. Being out in nature always lifts my spirits too, and Madge my rescue greyhound gets me up at 5.00am for her first walk, and I get to see rabbits, the sheep that are in the fields where I live, and if I am lucky, we sometimes see deer and hares. I feel so lucky to live where I do. I too have been down in the dumps with terrible tooth ach, then having the tooth out, and having worse pain after, as I had a gum infection with it! It has taken a long time to heal, and for the infection to go, but I am feeling a lot better now thank goodness. Thank you for this lovely video. Blessings and love from Jilly & Madge, from a sunny West Devon, England. xxx
Hello, Jilly and Madge!! ❤️ Thank you so much for your kind words. I hope you feel better soon, Jilly--sending you hugs and best wishes for a speedy recovery!
Beautiful video and much needed in these times.. I also find that helping an animal or person in need helps pull my focus off my own minutiae and lifts my heart too, win win! And NATURE always lifts my heart ❤️
Grateful🦋your Beautiful Rhythms🍃 Summer Mock-tails & Meditational DIYs always bring Joy to my heart🌻 I place it in my weekly schedule to remind myself to take time away from life stress. Joie de vivre🍹🌅🚵🏻♂️
Yes, the little things and the little moments that they are adding up each day in life... I feel so blessed to find your channel to learn and enjoy the sweet little things you share with us 💝
Hi! I'm from Rio de Janeiro/ Brazil and I found your Channel recently and I loved! I'm feel so confortable and safe and cozy whatching your videos! Thanks so much for this and I wish The best things for you! Xoxo 🍂✨🩷
Thank you for this wonderful video!! It came at a perfect time as I've been in the same slumpy mood too! I'm loving the 'Stevie Nicks' -style ensemble, blouse, skirt and boots. Very nice and stylish! Crocheting the granny square pillow covering is a great mood lifter and it looks really pretty too! I love the bullet-journaling too! Fantastic ideas for 'filling up the love tank.' Thank you again! Be well and be blessed! 😊💖🙏🏻
Aww I'm so happy to hear that!! ❤️ And thank you so much for all of your kind words about my outfit and the granny square pillow--that is so sweet of you to say. Have a fantastic weekend, my friend!!
Your video editing skills are amazing! The content is so heart warming! Just found this channel and so grateful to spirit for guiding me here. Sending you lots of loving energy!
💛Watching this video I leaned my head upon my pillow and dozed off to your soothing voice. 🧡I'm so happy that I got directed to your channel.🧡 I find your voice and videos really bring comfort to me. Blessed be.🩷
Lovely vid, just what I needed right now as I head into the weekend. And you’re lucky to have that view of such a gorgeous tulip poplar tree! And wow, I just visited your website/blog to get that granola recipe. How refreshing to scroll around your beautiful posts without being barraged by obnoxious ads! Subscribed!
Music is so powerful! My husband and i will both use some high energy music to lift us up. His favorite is metal and mine are electronic dance music and contemporary Christian. Love all of your ideas and suggestions!
What a lovely video. Thank you for sharing the things you do when you are feeling low or in a rut. I find that living with a chrnic condition I find days can be hard and feel I am not doing enough. I need to give myslef more grace. Love the granny square pillow case, you have made a wonderful job of it.
You smile a lot. It is nice. I know I have mentioned it before, but I mean it. What a cute white dress with your boots. Very Stevie Nicks! Your crocheting has been so good!! I love the pillow cover you made! I also am proud of you in accomplishing the things you do and making your journal too. Lovely video!!
I think your pillow insert will work just fine qith the size of your cover. In fact you want your insert to be a couple of inches bigger than your cover. That's the design rule of thumb. So an 18 inch cover would have a 20 inch insert. That way your pillow isn't limp but nice and puffy and filled out.
You are so wonderful my dear Full of amazing skills. Enjoyed a lot watching your video for the first time.... Thanks a lot for the postive feeling you gave me through this.
I really enjoyed this! It was so uplifting for me, and your smile through out the video was so refreshing and put a smile on my face too! I also am trying to get myself into a routine and be more predictive lately, but have been having a hard time. I'm not the best cook, but I can make simple things. I try and do that, and find ways to make myself happy! That's my goal hehe. I love your knitting skills! I can't sow or knit at all! Your outfit is so cute! Okay, enough said :) Thanks for picking up my low spirit today! Just got a new subscriber Haley! Continue to feel better! :D
Another warm and fluffy video, filled with so much tenderness! "Start where you are" is certainly a saying I am going to apply more thoughtfully, and use whenever I feel stuck and unmotivated. A beautiful and inspiring video once again. Thank you for the work, and the intention you put in each of your videos.
Hola,me encantó tu video que bello que valores disfrutar de cosas sencillas que te hacen feliz y es muy cierto.Gracias por darme ese animo de agradecer la vida.lo de la almohada te quedo bello❤❤❤❤❤Bendiciones desde Puerto Rico 😊😊😊
I celebrate watching this lovely kind video 🌷 while taking my bath, making myself tea and pouring it in my pretty tea cup, I celebrate lighting candles for myself, I celebrate having a little sparkle of hope joy and playfulness 🥰 just saying it made me smile ☺️ thank you 🥹
I love your theme, "Start where you are" It is so simplistic, but also realistic. So many people start with big goals that seem daunting and there is nothing wrong with that. However, your idea is easier to accomplish with the small goals in our everyday lives that help us to have a better outlook of ourselves and to build upon towards those bigger goals. I love your site. I just discovered it today, and I am so glad I did. I look forward to seeing your other videos. Thank you so much for sharing your insightful ideas.
Aww Laura, I am so happy to hear that it resonated with you!! ❤️ And thank you so much for your kind words about my website. I can't wait to keep sharing with you--sending you a big virtual hug!! 🤗
Thank you for posting I too have been trying to pull out of the slump which I feel like happens in February. I'm not sure why everyone's in a slump in May but this isn't the first creator that I've watched recently with the same topic. Anyway, thank you for sharing those and I really am hoping you will share where you got those boots at the beginning of the video. Those are just the best adorable love it! Love your channel.❤
THANK YOU, THANK YOU! This was the perfect video for me right now and I appreciate all of the work you put into creating a seamless and singular message here for us. Your granny squares are perfect, and I feel inspired to take the time to do some meal prep now. All the best to you! 🥰😍
Aww Carol, your comment means the world to me--thank you SO much!!❤️ I am so happy to hear that the video resonated with you and brought some inspiration to your day. Sending you a big virtual hug!!
Haley ! I was so happy to see you'd posted a new video! I'm really in need of self-care and motivation, and your video just gave me the wake up call I needed. Hopefully, I'll start writing again soon: I have so many stories to tell, yet so little energy... and that brings in the self-doubt. I need to tackle this problem as soon as possible :) Take care, dear friend.🥰
Aww Maren, I am so happy to hear that!! 🥰 I hope you can get back to writing again soon--I'm cheering you on, my friend!! Sending you the biggest virtual hug!
Wow, just watching you in your beautiful little kitchen is relaxing me. I am so tired today no don’t feel like I can too much and this hit the spot. I have Lyme disease and I don’t usually know from day to day if it will be an energy or tired day. Thank you for this gift you gave me today. ❤
I'm sending you a virtual hug--I hope you feel better and get some more energy soon, my friend! ❤️ I'm so happy this video brought you a little bit of comfort on a low energy day
Thank you for such a beautiful and encouraging video. I relate so much to the things you were saying. Recently I was feeling overwhelmed and low so I spent an entire day listening to an audiobook and embroidering a cute pattern with books with a Jane Austen quote. To other people, it may not look like I accomplished anything that day, but I know I was listening to my body and spirit and did just what I needed to. And I felt so much better the next day and was able to get more of my work done. Btw, oh my goodness, I can't believe how quickly you took to crocheting! Your work is gorgeous! I love the colors, it will look so cute in your house. And yes, flowers and candles make everything so much nicer, lol. I love that chocolate granola recipe! I've made regular granola before, but I've never thought to add chocolate. It sounds amazing. The weather here is so nice today so I'm off to work in the garden. I hear my chickens hollering, so that means I have eggs to collect too, lol. I hope you have a lovely weekend. Sending you love and hugs!
I am so happy that you enjoyed the video, Stephanie--thank you so much!! ❤️ Listening to an audiobook while embroidering sounds like the perfect day--I'm so happy that you were able to listen to what you needed and take time for yourself. And thank you for all of your kind words about my crochet--you are too kind!! 🥰 Have an amazing time gardening and a wonderful weekend!!
It’s from a brand called Enamel Happy, I love it so much!! 🌼 here’s the link: enamelhappy.co.uk/products/whistling-kettle-2-5l-stainless-steel-enamelhappy-honey-yellow
thank you for the video Haley! 🌼this really came at the right time, I have been feeling very overwhelmed and low energy this past week and I am ready to get out of this state. I will definately try the journaling promts you shared, they really resonate with me! ps. the pillow cover looks so nice! 💚the colours of the pattern kinda remind me of an avocado haha
I am so happy to hear that, and I hope you feel better soon, Alessandra!! ❤️ Hahahah and you are so right about the pillow case having the colors of an avocado--I love avocados so much I must have chosen the colors subconsciously! 😂Sending you the biggest hug!
God bless you...Hi...So sorry your feeling down...but you're brave enough by recognizing and trying for yourself to get out of that sadness...Thanks for sharing your tips...and advices...What ingredients did you use for the sleeping drink?..I think we all have good moments and moments that are not quit good...but we have to search for positive motivation...and I appreciate your videos that do such great job on that theme...Keep on... and thank you so much...❤️
Sweet! I want to make some chocolate granola! BTW: “Gerbera daisies like only an inch or two of water!” A friend told me this a long time ago! Change water every day and they last longer!💕🙏
What I have found out about being home , I always get dressed everyday , you will just feel better, I have found staying PJ's all day , did not make me feel good at all, so I get dress everyday , even if I'm just staying home, nice too also take a stay vacation's🎉🎉🎉somewhere.

Aww you made my day-thank you SO much!! 🥰💕 I’m so happy you love them!
Wearing a beautiful dress, much like a wedding dress and walking amongst the greenery and flowers is enough to change the lowest of moods!😅 Lovely💗💗💗
I couldn’t agree more! 😊 thank you so much for watching, friend ❤️❤️❤️
Your video editing skills are amazing! The content is so heart warming! Just found this channel and so grateful to spirit for guiding me here. Sending you lots of loving energy!
💛Watching this video I leaned my head upon my pillow and dozed off to your soothing voice. 🧡I'm so happy that I got directed to your channel.🧡 I find your voice and videos really bring comfort to me. Blessed be.🩷
Lovely vid, just what I needed right now as I head into the weekend. And you’re lucky to have that view of such a gorgeous tulip poplar tree! And wow, I just visited your website/blog to get that granola recipe. How refreshing to scroll around your beautiful posts without being barraged by obnoxious ads! Subscribed!
Hello beautiful Haley!!🌿
Hello, dear Alessandra!! 🥰 I hope you've been well, my friend!
I love crochet, and I love the pillow you made! 🥰
Music is so powerful! My husband and i will both use some high energy music to lift us up. His favorite is metal and mine are electronic dance music and contemporary Christian. Love all of your ideas and suggestions!
What a lovely video. I think your crochet pillow cover is so pretty. Your food prep ideas are so good too. Thank you for inspiring me 🌻
Aww Joni, thank you so much for brightening my day with your kind words ❤️ I'm so happy you enjoyed the video!!
Watching from philippines,
I really like ur videos, its so relaxing and soothing and calms my soul❤thankyou
What a lovely video. Thank you for sharing the things you do when you are feeling low or in a rut. I find that living with a chrnic condition I find days can be hard and feel I am not doing enough. I need to give myslef more grace.
Love the granny square pillow case, you have made a wonderful job of it.
You smile a lot. It is nice. I know I have mentioned it before, but I mean it. What a cute white dress with your boots. Very Stevie Nicks!
Your crocheting has been so good!! I love the pillow cover you made! I also am proud of you in accomplishing the things you do and making your journal too. Lovely video!!
Totally agree, self care is very important 😊❤
Какая вы чудесная и вдохновляющая!
I think your pillow insert will work just fine qith the size of your cover. In fact you want your insert to be a couple of inches bigger than your cover. That's the design rule of thumb. So an 18 inch cover would have a 20 inch insert. That way your pillow isn't limp but nice and puffy and filled out.
You are so wonderful my dear
Full of amazing skills.
Enjoyed a lot watching your video for the first time.... Thanks a lot for the postive feeling you gave me through this.
I really enjoyed this! It was so uplifting for me, and your smile through out the video was so refreshing and put a smile on my face too! I also am trying to get myself into a routine and be more predictive lately, but have been having a hard time. I'm not the best cook, but I can make simple things. I try and do that, and find ways to make myself happy! That's my goal hehe. I love your knitting skills! I can't sow or knit at all! Your outfit is so cute! Okay, enough said :) Thanks for picking up my low spirit today! Just got a new subscriber Haley! Continue to feel better! :D
I love the string of dried plants and flowers!
Another warm and fluffy video, filled with so much tenderness!
"Start where you are" is certainly a saying I am going to apply more thoughtfully, and use whenever I feel stuck and unmotivated.
A beautiful and inspiring video once again.
Thank you for the work, and the intention you put in each of your videos.
Thank you so much, Manika!! ❤️ I am so happy you enjoyed the video. Wishing you a wonderful weekend, my friend!
Great Papers writing, simple lifestyle .

Will you share the chocolate granola recipe?
I am delighted to hear that you enjoyed the video, Lisa!! Here is the recipe for the granola: mymoonstonekitchen.com/blog/chocolate-sea-salt-granola
Lovely video! I am really enjoying the music. 💕
Aww I'm so happy you like it--thank you so much!! 🥰
I love the cozy lighting in your videos when you shoot the indoor scenes. Any tips on how to achieve that?
Hola,me encantó tu video que bello que valores disfrutar de cosas sencillas que te hacen feliz y es muy cierto.Gracias por darme ese animo de agradecer la vida.lo de la almohada te quedo bello❤❤❤❤❤Bendiciones desde Puerto Rico 😊😊😊
Lovely video, and a lovely message at the end, too!
I celebrate watching this lovely kind video 🌷 while taking my bath, making myself tea and pouring it in my pretty tea cup, I celebrate lighting candles for myself, I celebrate having a little sparkle of hope joy and playfulness 🥰 just saying it made me smile ☺️ thank you 🥹
You have no idea how happy this makes me, my friend!! ❤️
I love your theme, "Start where you are" It is so simplistic, but also realistic. So many people start with big goals that seem daunting and there is nothing wrong with that. However, your idea is easier to accomplish with the small goals in our everyday lives that help us to have a better outlook of ourselves and to build upon towards those bigger goals. I love your site. I just discovered it today, and I am so glad I did. I look forward to seeing your other videos. Thank you so much for sharing your insightful ideas.
Aww Laura, I am so happy to hear that it resonated with you!! ❤️ And thank you so much for your kind words about my website. I can't wait to keep sharing with you--sending you a big virtual hug!! 🤗
@@MyMoonstoneKitchen thank you so much Haley. ❤💋

Thank you so much, Jaime!! ❤️
That granola looks wonderful. Thank you
Thank you for posting I too have been trying to pull out of the slump which I feel like happens in February. I'm not sure why everyone's in a slump in May but this isn't the first creator that I've watched recently with the same topic. Anyway, thank you for sharing those and I really am hoping you will share where you got those boots at the beginning of the video. Those are just the best adorable love it! Love your channel.❤
THANK YOU, THANK YOU! This was the perfect video for me right now and I appreciate all of the work you put into creating a seamless and singular message here for us. Your granny squares are perfect, and I feel inspired to take the time to do some meal prep now. All the best to you! 🥰😍
Aww Carol, your comment means the world to me--thank you SO much!!❤️ I am so happy to hear that the video resonated with you and brought some inspiration to your day. Sending you a big virtual hug!!
Haley ! I was so happy to see you'd posted a new video! I'm really in need of self-care and motivation, and your video just gave me the wake up call I needed. Hopefully, I'll start writing again soon: I have so many stories to tell, yet so little energy... and that brings in the self-doubt. I need to tackle this problem as soon as possible :) Take care, dear friend.🥰
Aww Maren, I am so happy to hear that!! 🥰 I hope you can get back to writing again soon--I'm cheering you on, my friend!! Sending you the biggest virtual hug!
This is such a great video it really spoke to me. Thanks for the wonderful tips. ❤
Wow, just watching you in your beautiful little kitchen is relaxing me. I am so tired today no don’t feel like I can too much and this hit the spot. I have Lyme disease and I don’t usually know from day to day if it will be an energy or tired day. Thank you for this gift you gave me today. ❤
I'm sending you a virtual hug--I hope you feel better and get some more energy soon, my friend! ❤️ I'm so happy this video brought you a little bit of comfort on a low energy day
@@MyMoonstoneKitchen thank you. You are kind. ❤️

You are too kind--thank you so much!! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your journal with us. ❤😊
You are so welcome!❤️
These are nice reminders. Thank you!
Thank you !
Thank you for such a beautiful and encouraging video. I relate so much to the things you were saying. Recently I was feeling overwhelmed and low so I spent an entire day listening to an audiobook and embroidering a cute pattern with books with a Jane Austen quote. To other people, it may not look like I accomplished anything that day, but I know I was listening to my body and spirit and did just what I needed to. And I felt so much better the next day and was able to get more of my work done.
Btw, oh my goodness, I can't believe how quickly you took to crocheting! Your work is gorgeous! I love the colors, it will look so cute in your house. And yes, flowers and candles make everything so much nicer, lol. I love that chocolate granola recipe! I've made regular granola before, but I've never thought to add chocolate. It sounds amazing.
The weather here is so nice today so I'm off to work in the garden. I hear my chickens hollering, so that means I have eggs to collect too, lol. I hope you have a lovely weekend. Sending you love and hugs!
I am so happy that you enjoyed the video, Stephanie--thank you so much!! ❤️ Listening to an audiobook while embroidering sounds like the perfect day--I'm so happy that you were able to listen to what you needed and take time for yourself. And thank you for all of your kind words about my crochet--you are too kind!! 🥰 Have an amazing time gardening and a wonderful weekend!!
Beautifully shot and edited!The music choice is perfect❤
Thank you so much for your kind words!!

I am so happy to hear that, and I hope you feel better soon, Alessandra!! ❤️ Hahahah and you are so right about the pillow case having the colors of an avocado--I love avocados so much I must have chosen the colors subconsciously! 😂Sending you the biggest hug!
