We are finally getting customers coming in and I have a pretty good handle on all the drinks now
It helps that our herbalist and I kinda had to reinvent a bunch of the mocktail’s so that’s fun
They gave us a lot of leeway in our creativity, and we ended up coming up with some awesome things
I was joking that we both look like some mad alchemists with all our jars and syrup and things like that
It was a little rough this morning. We got locked out in the cold, but managed to get in. It took us like half an hour, though.
But I really love the people of this little city. There’s a lovely intersection between holistic wellness and art. And as a practitioner of both, it just fits right in for me. I’m at somebody who was an illustrator and this one lady who went to the same elementary school as I was from my hometown.
She was in her 60s and told me about what the town was like when she was little apparently our local white castle was there since she was a kid too
So these lovely little connections it really does feel like the right place for me. I wanna get a house here and if I have children, I’d like to raise them here.
I think I fell in love with it.
My herbalist coworker is about to launch his tincture brand which I’m really excited for. I want to try some of his stuff. I know he knows his stuff.
And being around so many healing people matches my own energy so well. I feel like I am more in tune with both my body and and I’m getting stronger impressions than I used to.
So a nice spiritual leveling up if you will.
Also, on this other side of narcissistic abuse, I realized how much of my energy they sucked out of me.
I’ve gotten very good at discerning when they’re lying and what not so being low contact has been really good.
My boss was talking about getting a projector in the other room so we can host movie nights and that would be really fun.
I wanna host Tarot 101 workshops as well as a self-love mini altar class
Just being around so many interesting people is very inspiring. I’ve been eating so much better. I gave up soda completely. I don’t even wanna drink it these days.
I may have a green juice addiction, though, which is much better considering there’s not that much sugar in it. And I mostly drink teas aside from that.
Even my food choices have been a little bit better. I had a bagel split in half over the course of the day and end a yogurt with raw honey and apple slices.
I think I’m gonna spend the next few hours reading some of my old tarot books and get a better understanding of certain things.
And even though I have to go to sleep early to open again, doesn’t feel so bad. I was thinking on the way back home on how different my life is now how I’m actually genuinely happy day-to-day.
It’s really lovely to be in this headspace. I feel better in my body and in my soul it’s kind of wonderful.
I’m genuinely grateful for the way. My life is at the moment. I’m sure I’d love to have our own space soon and I know it’ll happen. We’re definitely on our way to it a little at a time and it’s great.
In the meantime, I’ll enjoy spending time with my in-laws and do things with the family

this is such a lovely post
I guess what I’m saying is no matter how bad things can be they can shift in an instant and things can be good again

we can only hope
I'm so happy for you darling <3
I’m so happy for you!!!!!!!
