August 2020 desktop wallpaper

Two posts in one day? Don’t panic, I’m just catching up to August and updating some areas on this website to reflect the name change. What name change? Well, my one of tens of readers…I just changed the name of the site to The Indoorsy Project. Since having my daughter (and then a little Global […]

sketch therapy

In August I bought myself a small chunky sketch book with light brown kraft paper pages. Since then I’ve been choosing random pages in it to sketch people and animals. The first thing I drew was a horse, then some faces, then a frog and some more faces. I do use references sometimes, especially for […]

an impeccable sadness

Struggling a bit lately. I need to be honest because not admitting I’m feeling wobbly means staying stuck. I’m angry with myself, overthinking, overly critical, unsure about how best to push through so I’m taking things a day at a time, sometimes half a day. I’m frustrated and tired. “Depression is an impeccable sadness.” I […]

let the rain fall

It’s been a very stormy day, I woke up to thunder and heavy rain and was glad. I like it when the weather matches my mood. Sometimes it seems like we’re rushed through our sadness or, worse, encouraged to ignore it altogether. Isn’t it better, though, to recognize our sadness for what it is? Sadness […]

miracles

I know sometimes it can feel like we get up just so we can fall down again – and that the process of getting up can seem to take forever…because we are human and can only heal so much at a time. Even while we heal we are fending off new threats to our well-being; […]

if I fall

This week finding the right words has been difficult for me. My Dad passed away and I am feeling all “these things”; frustrated that I cannot put words on all of it. I’m not dreaming anymore. Not even the nightmares. Not for days. It’s unsettling. Grief, itself, has a unique strangeness. It grabs you and […]

A bee visits around 100 flowers per foraging flight, with a maximum speed of up to 19 miles per hour. When things feel heavy (and my daughter is fast asleep) I retreat into what I call my aimeecave. In the cave I detach a bit and pour myself into a project or three. Projects with no expectations; took some watercolor and procreate classes on Skillshare, then watched some Netflix. Also went and got a check-up and scheduled my mammogram. Hello, Lovelies! Hop over to the designer resources page for something new 😉 I’ve surprised myself in the last few months by getting a little sad whenever I see baby clothes. My girl is inching toward her third birthday and talking a bit more (arguing a bit more as well, lol.) Thank you everybody that sent get well ❤️‍🩹 wishes for my little girl. She had a rough few days but is feeling much better. Just trying to work on her appetite now. So far she’s okay with nibbling on waffles and blueberries. Thankfully she took fluids well and didn’t get dehydrated. My toddler had fevers last night so, naturally, I stayed up staring at her sleep and taking her temperature. First time she’s been sick in 2 years. It’s been a low grade fever all day. She was sick 5 times from 3-6 months (first 3 months of daycare were a nightmare) but after we went into lockdown she stayed healthy. Hoping she bounces back quickly, I’m relearning how to take care of a sick baby. So far she’s just been a little clingy and running around less. We were going to go to the Children’s Zoo today but instead we are resting. Also, her cousin was sent home from school and down with fever yesterday afternoon so we’re pretty sure they have the same thing since they were together twice this week. The color palette I’m working with at the moment. 🤍 Today I’d actually just like to lay down and sleep, like, all day. I’m sure that won’t happen. 🤍 My childhood summers were all about berry picking and calamine lotion… since, in our quest, we always caught poison ivy.
