I'm back!
For those of you who are new here I've been on a bloggers sabbatical.Why? The infamous burnout. Blogging for deadlines, not passions. An overdose of comparison. A mixture of writers block and a creative depression. It's terrible! I know, I know! Consistency is key in the blogger world, but how do you blog when you have no passion to and it feels like a "have-to"? In my case; you just don't. Well I mean I could have but I feel like the lack of passion was becoming obvious.
But after a rough spring and a refreshing summer I am back! One of my favorite writers F. Scott Fitzgerald says, "Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall." Which is exactly what is happening over here. SBF (Sprout. Bloom. Flourish.) is getting a new l i f e (insert the dramatics), new style, and new perspective.
I'm Victoria or V (and if you've known me for too long it's this "Tori" nonsense! I don't like it, but try telling your momma that gave birth to your 9 lb self, that she can't call you whatever she has been calling you for the past 20 something years of your life. Even though I do make special request that everyone else calls me Victoria, and that's how I'm introduced. Sweet, sweet compromise.)
I put my faith and trust in Jesus Christ and the power of the cross. I have a serious love for all things Disney and magical. Or as I would like to say, I just operate on The Gospel & Pixie Dust.
There are few things I can't resist: Saturday adventures, farmers market flowers, a colorful Disney movie, avocados, laughing until I can't breathe, game nights, sweet tea, naps, pretty things, dancing in kitchens, planning things WAYY too far in advance (I mean I've been planning my wedding since I was in the 6th grade. Spending my allowance on Martha Steward Wedding Magazines and scaring away all the middle school boys), brunch, good books, even better music, Found sodas, stalking my favorite bloggers, French films, Netflix binges, WEDDINGS, and buying too many black and white (or white and black) striped articles of clothing.
Currently I live in the Gulf Coast with my
I'm overjoyed that you decided to drop by, but I don't think I could ever fully let you know who I was in a short post, in fact it is exhausting to try. Hopefully if you stick around you'll get glimpses of me in each post.
Also I would love to get to know you as a reader . I've met so many wonderful friends through the world wide web and I would be over the moon excited if you became one of those! So feel free to comment, email, ask questions, be kind, ect, ect
P.S: Photos taken by my ultra talented brother in-law RayNeutron! He makes creative magic, so if you're ever in the LA area, or not (he travels) give him a shout. Legend has it, he is still shooting for dried mangoes. (instagram)
