things i’m loving ✩ 32 | april 2022

May 4, 2022

I’m actually really sad that April is over and we are now in May. This year has literally been flying by and I don’t feel like I’m making any sort of progress as I had hoped I would.

To be honest, I’m just not feeling very me right now. I’m missing someone I love dearly so much every day and the sheer heartbreak of the situation is all I can deal with at the moment. To add to that, I’ve been struggling to find a job in the field I really want to be working in. All of my other intentions for the year really hang on the securement of employment, so if I don’t manage to get that, then I can’t really look forward to achieving everything else. I guess you can say that I’m at a very low point in my life right now. Everything fell apart at the same time and I’m just trying to stay afloat. 

I’m waiting patiently for the silver linings though. Meanwhile, here are a few things I enjoyed this month:

Reading

Field Notes on Love by Jennifer E. Smith. What can I say about it? It’s a super cute Jennifer E. Smith read if you’re into cute YA romances. This one had a Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight sort of feel to it. Makes me want to travel by train cross country with a cute British stranger. Fun read! I gave it four stars.

Watching

The Adam Project and Red Notice on Netflix and Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series on Disney+. had a long night watching Ryan Reynolds with my mom. Both The Adam Project and Red Notice were really good. I think I liked them both equally. I’ve also been slowly working my way through the SEVEN seasons of The Clone Wars, only because I want to be “in the know” when it comes to the new live-action series coming to Disney+.

Listening To

A lot of Ed Sheeran. I’m very much in a mood. Listening to Ed’s music has been really cathartic lately. A lot of his songs are just super relatable right now. I forgot how much I loved his Songs I Wrote With Amy EP. One of my favorites from before he was famous. I loved it back then and love it even more now. Fire Alarms will always be my favorite song, but Where We Land is hitting me real hard right now.

Discovering

my new Daybook of Dreams journal. I repurposed an old altered book art journal recently to create something I like to call a Daybook of Dreams. A Daybook of Dreams is basically a commonplace book. I’m using this place to collect inspiration and manifest my hopes and dreams. So lots of images that bring me joy, quotes I’ve collected from my readings that have personally resonated with me, and my own personal thoughts on things I want more of in my life. It’s a positivity commonplace book! I want to flip through these pages in the end and have them radiate joy!

    Hi! I am sorry you are going through a rough time – life is that way…a lot. Our pastor always says, “Suffering is normal, and God is good.” I hated the suffering part when I first heard it, but it is true if you look at life and the world in general. Suffering is not going away, but there is joy and goodness to be found. Not sure how you stand on your beliefs, but know I will be praying for you. Thank you for sharing your heart with us. You have a beautiful blog and website!! Your art radiates joy!

    <3 L Camille

When I originally set up these pages in my @getmes When I originally set up these pages in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal, I left a lot of space to write about what blooming means to me. It means growth, blossoming, and becoming. It means to flourish. It also represents nature and the restorative power of being in the wild. 

Bloom means a lot to me and yet while finishing up some of these half-finished pages, I was at a loss for words. This is when I found that word phrase stickers really help get the message across. xx
Just another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Seas Just another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. A lot of these pages were already in progress, so it's interesting to see them finished. I'm sure I had other intentions for what they were going to look like a couple of years ago when I first created this journal. Now, I'm content with matching colors, adding paint, and a few scribbles. This journal is all about the process of creating for me now, which I think is still a source of growth. xx
Another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. I rather like how this one turned out! I'm quite obsessed with using this Payne's Gray NeoColor crayon to make some scattered marks on my page. You might see a lot more of this in future spreads from this book. xx
I've been enjoying following along with the @getme I've been enjoying following along with the @getmessyartjournal #getmessymay prompts. I've basically been just watching them as they are posted. But the other night, I attempted the Happy prompt and it literally has gotten back into simply playing around with my supplies. I pulled out this very old Seasons of Bloom journal that is SO CLOSE to being finished. I figure I'd channel all of this creative energy I have right now to finishing it up!

I'm not responding to any particular prompt, just using the processes and techniques shared to finally complete this journal. xx
Another handful of #littleartnotes that I’ll be Another handful of #littleartnotes that I’ll be taking with me to Tennessee. I’ll be visiting friends over there for two weeks, so I made an entire batch of cards to share with the lovely people of TN. This is just a handful of them. These might be my favorites because they’re so colorful! xx
