Having good 𝘵𝘩𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘴 in our garden

Having good 𝘵𝘩𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘴 in our garden. 🌿⠀
⠀
Alright, enough with my puns or 'dad jokes' like the girls say. We are pretty much done planting our garden. ⠀
⠀
Now, we just have to let it grow.⠀
⠀
💮SCROLL TO WALK THROUGH OUR TINY GARDEN💮⠀
⠀
Here's a quick photo dump of our teeny garden. We planted lots of perennials last year, and they've sprouted up. My mom's hydrangeas that we replanted are slowly growing. The peonies she gave us have started to bloom, and the lilies are coming in too.⠀
⠀
We added petunias, silver nettle, licorice, silver bullets, sweet alyssum, and a bunch more to put in our shed planter and flower beds. ⠀
⠀
We are novice gardeners (and that's generous) but, I grew up watching my mom gardening, and she always gives us tips. It really makes our yard more enjoyable to be in. ⠀
⠀
Next is making a small herb garden. 🌿⠀

Are you a cheugy geriatric millennial? 😜⠀ ⠀

Are you a cheugy geriatric millennial? 😜⠀
⠀
On my second dose of caffeine and still in weekend mode. In between working and mindlessly learning new things (or getting distracted), I've learned that my generation (the early 1980s) is now defined as "geriatric Millennials," yes, 𝘨𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘤. ⠀
⠀
But, at least we are perfectly situated to lead hybrid workforces of the future since we were the first generation with PCs at home, and we know how to deal with in-person interactions. Analog and digital. 🤷🏽‍♀️⠀
⠀
Also, that 'cheugy,' pronounced "chew-ghee" is a thing.⠀
⠀
And some of us may be it.⠀
⠀
Apparently, it's the opposite of trendy or using outdated items and terms like 'girl boss' (𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞, 𝐈'𝐦 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚 𝐛𝐨𝐬𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡), graphic hats, and graphic tees. Even using Herbal Essences isn't safe and makes you cheugy. #themoreyouknow⠀
⠀
⚡SCROLL TO SEE ME BEING CHEUGY⚡⠀
⠀
Back to work, I checked off pretty big items on my to-do list and now starting a new block of goals. I find that when I break them down into smaller "blocks," I get them done.⠀
⠀
Don't forget to drink your water, take some time for yourself today, get down with your cheugy and geriatric self (if you're my age), and don't let anyone stand in your way today. ⠀
⠀
May your coffee be strong, and your Monday be short. ☕⠀
⠀
Which generation do you fall under? 💁🏽‍♀️⠀

Happy Mother's Day. 💚⠀
⠀
To all the moms, single moms, step moms, aunties, grandmas, and dog mamas out there. I hope your day is filled with immense love.⠀
⠀
Motherhood isn't easy. Especially when you try to balance it with everything else life hands you. ⠀
⠀
This year, I've worried that I'm not doing enough. The uncertainty of the future. That after stretching myself out thin, if I've failed them.⠀
⠀
I do know that they've loved me so much during the best times and the hard times. They make me feel like I am enough and doing my best, despite being human.⠀
⠀
Our girls are great kids, and for that, I'm grateful. ⠀
⠀
It takes a village, and I'm grateful for mine who have helped me raise them. Especially my mom, Milagro, who taught me how to be a mother. As well as my sister, Susana, she is an amazing aunt and second mom to our girls. ⠀

Today will be a chill day, spent with the girls and Hubs when he gets home from work. We were going to plant flowers (you can see my planter is empty), but the weather is not cooperating. ⠀
⠀
There's always tomorrow!⠀
⠀
How are you spending this Sunday? 🤗⠀

Since we are still in lockdown here, I've been thinking about things to do outside of my job to keep my mind preoccupied and busy.⠀
⠀
Sometimes, it's hard to separate the two.⠀
⠀
Life has thrown me a few obstacles, and when I'm ready to share, I definitely will. So, right now, I've been trying to focus on things that make me happy or that I enjoy. Thanks for the advice, Kim. ☺️⠀
⠀
If you find that you want to try a new hobby, here are some ideas below:⠀
⠀
⚡HOBBIES TO TRY⚡⠀
▪ Bullet journaling (therapeutic)⠀
▪ Cross-stitching or crocheting⠀
▪ Hiking or birding⠀
▪ Kayaking or canoeing⠀
▪ Latte art or mixology⠀
▪ Photography or videography⠀
⠀
For me, it's listening to music, singing, reading, and photography. ⠀
⠀
I collect vintage cameras (most of them operational), and I love researching them and using them if I can get film. This one is a video camera made in 1949 and uses 8mm film. I can't wait to see what I can do with it. I hadn't had a chance until now.⠀
⠀

Oh, and Happy May the 4th, friends!⠀

Love yourself. ✨⠀
⠀
I think it's one of the hardest things to do but so freeing when you start. ⠀
⠀
We are constantly bombarded with self-help and self-love messages and to let go of the you that existed in the past.⠀
⠀
In case you didn't know, I'm a huge kpop and jpop fan (since my youth,) and that's why I love BTS. One reason, in particular, is their message that your past self is the you that helped you become who you are today.⠀
⠀
All those flaws and faults have made you grow and learn. Embracing them is the first step to love yourself entirely. ⠀
⠀
I love that, and this process is always a work in progress, and that's okay.⠀
⠀
In the words of Jimin, '𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘦, 𝘬𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨.'⠀
⠀
Love yourself. 💜
