It is what it is

It has been a while since I have posted because I have been swamped with freelance and work. Life is chaos and I think this is a venting post. I feel like crap and I am always stressed. I think I am doing something wrong, overworking and having no balance. I already know the answer but I honestly can’t stop! I think I am going crazy, like my ambition is WAYYYY to much for me. ( I can’t imagine how other people feel if I am too much for myself) haha, but seriously. I love what I do and it is clear to say its an addiction, I always want to challenge myself and improve my skills but I think there comes a point where you push yourself too far and thats called crazy. My husband knows…bless his soul. Whew, thats probably more than enough for whomever has decided to read this crazy blog.

Now for the goods. I wanted to share a little humor to help make life less heavy by making fun of myself and telling you the story behind the pictures I post on instagram. Here she goes…

dasherie lettering:
well it was the first time I have tried lettering and naturally I loved it so I took one pic and posted it. Instantly regretting it because I forgot to do the “i” and I cringe every time I look at it. The worst part is, a real calligrapher  Annie Mertlich liked it. I’m sure it was a pity like which makes it worse. Oh well, only room for improvement eh.

laughing with my hat on:
“Hey Nikki, make me laugh, I want one of those pics where I am pretending to laugh.” I said to my little sister as we pretended I was a fashion blogger for a day. I think I felt more awkward than anything with all of the grocery store people staring at me as I sat in garbage by a dumpster but the pic looks like I was actually laughing so it was all worth it.

The mouse trap pic:
Well it is my favourite food truck so I needed to show the world how much I loved it by taking a selfie with my husband and the logo in the background. After about 8 pictures my husband said he was done but I had just begun. My hair looked whack, then my head was bigger than his, wow I’m pale in that one, oh wait I forgot the truck is supposed to be in this pic. By then my husband had walked off and I was left searching for the right picture to post…20 minutes later.

That’s it for today!
