Life is Magic///Poetry Bombs

Goals, hopes and dreams...whatever they may be, are fantastic.

Augustina Woodgate sews poetry into clothing at thrift stores, spreading little bits of art and inspiration to whoever picks up the right blazer or sundress. 

To come across one of these little pieces of paper magic would be a true definition of a diamond in the rough.

HELLOvintage///Into the Trees

It's always nice to be included in such things. My Buffalo Check Flannel would be so cute styled with that sweet packpack (yes, i say packpack). ♥

Building a Bed

I'm currently bedless and in the process of figuring out a new way to sleep. 

I'm thinking I'll reconfigure this look that I've posted about before. We have some extra pallets at work so I'll use a few of those versus the rustic logs. Throw a flokati in between the pallets and my mattress and call it a day. YEP, now I just need a mattress.

The dreamiest hammock I've ever seen belongs to Bless designer Mira Schroder. Shoot!

Smell the Roses///

June in Portland is weird...days give us 15 minutes of sun and then 15 minutes of rain...a rotation similar to this usually goes all month long. I like to call it Junuary. 

But Friday night was just nice enough to bike all over the eastside with my Jorie girl on my old clunky cruiser (sorry other cyclists, this is a slow ride with wide turns). 

My sweet sweet boss brought us roses from her garden. They smelled amazing and with those in my basket it was truly the most euphoric ride ever. 

These simple moments are making me happy right now...keeping me sane. Helping me realize that it doesn't take much.

Wish Me Luck///

With a heavy heart I write this post. 

After close to 3 years of knowing and loving Ketch, we have decided to part ways. It's pretty mutual...which makes me even more sad. I wish we both had more fight in us...I wish he had more fight in him. But this is life. I've taken a lot of good lessons from this relationship - but I can't say that my heart isn't broken, because really honestly? I don't get this deep into a relationship without thinking that person is "the one". He was my perfect, my puzzle piece...my Ketchup. 

So posts may not be as frequent for a while...or if I overpost because I need something to keep me busy...I greatly apologize. I hope to keep a somewhat focused view on the world from this little place. Wish me luck.

Best,

Katey
