MY 35TH How I am celebrating

With the Move, Dovear Passing, and with my mother Passing all within 5 months. 2020 is going to go down in my history Rolodex as a memorable time lol. I mean that in the most sarcastic way possible all my stuff has bounced off the track and I was forced to go into a Hermit Mode and rearrange my life to this new normal.

I can not complain about the last 8 months, especially since it has made me more grounded in my entire life. Something I realized I didn’t have was a Hobby so I took up gardening. I have found Solace in the planning and research of each individual plant. the Virgo in me thrives on planning and executing said plans lol,

A good chunk of my plants have suffered from an attack of Spider Mites

WARNING IF YOU HAVE A FEAR OF SPIDERS SCROLL BABY SCROLL

By the way, my new phone has an amazing camera I am enjoying that way too much lol.

I have also taken up yoga, eating vegan, and trying to sweat on a daily basis lol. My mother’s death put a lot of things in perspective for me as far as my health and how I need to start now since this was the age that she was diagnosed as a Diabetic.

My best friend graced me with her presence and helped me clean half of the apartment (the most important half lol) and helped me pack my items to ship off to Amazon to sell at a later time 🙂 I am sending off three different bundles one for gardening for the new gardener, one for the most recent sewing enthusiast and for the traveling person during the times of the pandemic. they will also be available on the website soon as well 🙂

the flowers and card she gave me made me ugly cry lol

also had a chance to spend some time with my cousins and my dad and had a chance to try my dads infamous “Jungle Juice” I heard all kinds of stories of my dad and his Juice by my family and this was my first chance at trying it and he gave me the recipe on the drive home lol

I spent the day sprucing up my balcony garden with some more plush lovelies, got my favorite daiquiri in town, ordered fajitas and some new beauty products 🙂

Howdy, folks! I'm the creative force behind the blog "Girl in H-Town." I wear a few hats – writer, mental health advocate, and I like to think of myself as a "dating wing woman" with a passion for empowering women, helping them heal from their trauma, and improving their mental well-being. I was born and raised in a small Texas town, and let me tell you, life threw some real curveballs my way. I focus on empowerment, self-care, and self-love. When you read my blog, you're getting a piece of my heart – it's raw, honest, and deeply personal. I pour my own journey of healing and self-discovery into every word. When I'm not tapping away on the keyboard or working, I enjoy the simple things in life. I'm a bookworm, love tending to my garden, and find peace in yoga. But my pride and joy? Well, that'd be my super genius teenagers. Family is everything to me, and I'm committed to using my platform to positively impact this world. Whether you're looking for inspiration, guidance, or just an ol' Texas story, my writing is here to make a lasting impression. I'm a staunch advocate for mental health and an essential voice in the conversation around trauma and healing. So, if you're ready to be inspired, stick around.
