These photos are from a few weeks ago (before autumn really took hold), but I still wanted to post them because I really love this outfit!  I'd been waiting for this dress to come back in stock at ModCloth FOREVER; I was starting to think it would never come back!  When it did, I ordered it immediately (how could I not?).  The print is absolutely perfect.  I was nervous about the top half fitting (I sometimes have problems with shirt dresses/gaping buttons/etc.), and though it's a little snug, it fits and doesn't have any weird gaps, so I was very relieved!







I'm starting to feel more and more like myself again.  I'm a perfectionist, so whenever something is a little "off" with me (emotionally or physically), I get very frustrated when I don't immediately feel normal again.  I'm not a very patient person, to be honest.  And rationally, I know time heals all wounds.  But for now, I'm just keeping my mind occupied, and taking stock of all the things that make me happy these days, like:

- this dress
- rehearsals & feeling like a real actor again
- feeling physically well again, after having been sick
- making new friends
- reconnecting with old friends
- being surrounded by kind, supportive people
- changing leaves
- sunshine
- sweater weather
- new blogging opportunities (more on this soon!)
- resisting food-related indulgences 
- challenging myself 
- feeling pretty again
- planning to redecorate my room
- getting a nice review of our Fringe Festival show
- laughing
- the smells of autumn
- having "good skin" days
- lots of blankets on my bed
- hot showers
- my kitty cat
- making money
- living in the present
- being open to lots of possibilities






Have a lovely Sunday!
