Oh the Webs We Weave

It has been sometime since I posted anything. I have had somewhat of a love-hate relationship with this blog. I really like the idea of writing this blog...but notice every time I start a post, I kind of wrestle with myself as I'm writing. I censor myself.
See, the problem with actually DOING a blog, like full on doing it...is that you fling open the doors on all your shit and invite people to come on in, parade around,  observe...and yes, judge.
There was a time in my life when I simply didn't care what people thought of me. Somewhere along the way, I lost that person. I started to care waaaaay too much what people thought of me. I started to censor myself.
Last week, my little family went on a much needed, nothing extravagant vacation. It was fabulous. I was stress free. I was uninhibited. I was uncensored. It was so freeing. So, I brought that me home with me.
I even posted a full body pic of myself from vacation on Facebook. No more cropping myself out of pics because I'm overweight. No more editing tutorial pics so you can't see that after a year, my kitchen cabinets STILL don't have doors on them. I am who I am. We live how we live.
I'll be inviting you into my home in the blog posts to come. I spend a lot of time making things beautiful for other people with my business, so my house looks like a hodge podge of started refinishing, decided I hate it, realized I was trying to please someone else shit right now. I'll be starting in the master bedroom..."before" pics to come. I hope you'll stay tuned!

  1. I agree! I have caught myself in the past not posting a pic on social media because it had caught a mild imperfection in my home. I hate being judged, but that is the downside of the internet, judgemental assholes. You look gorgeous and should never be afraid to show the real you! I love your blog Kerry! Keep it up!!

  2. Thank you for that Becky...seems like things were a lot simpler back in the day when our biggest worry was filling up the tank of Mitsubishi Eclipse, doesn't it? Lol!
