Relieved To Say....

....that I've taken a few days off from reading or watching the news, and my state of mind is MUCH more calm.  Whatever is happening in the world is going to happen whether I read about it or not, so giving myself a break in these unnerving and upsetting times is sometimes a must for me.  If I'm honest about it, taking a break from the world and national and local news sometimes makes me feel irresponsible, but I think my mental health is more important than keeping up with the headlines.

In Kristie local news, I'm getting new headshots in December!  So excited about it! It's been a minute since I've had new headshots and I'm really looking forward to once again working with this fab photographer, Tyler Core, who did headshots for me years back and did an incredible job - and we had a fun, playful, easy, marvelous session that garnered me so many wonderful headshots from which to choose.  So stay tuned in December for a revamping of my website's pictures!

Because of the above, I treated myself to an eentsy shopping spree :-)  New headshots, new clothes, maybe a new hairstyle?  Oh, my, the possibilities!

See what happens when I stop watching the news?  Stuff in my own little world takes on a beautiful hue :-)  I hope you're being kind to yourself and others, forgiving yourself if you too need a break from the world and find yourself taking a walk on a beautiful day humming your favorite song with a smile on your face and a lift in your spirits.
