Is it just me or do we all see something about ourselves that no one else sees. Or others see us how we don't see ourselves. 

Again today, a woman walks in and says "oh you're stunning". Now I appreciate that..and I do get it alot. But I don't see it lol   I get a little self conscious because people always look at me...and remember me...and I just don't get it. I think I look pretty regular. I kind of feel like an alien when I see people looking at me like that. And then people wonder why I won't sing or dance in front of anyone...because I know they are looking right in my direction!! Am I weird?

Now don't get me wrong...I love myself...I feel sexy, divine feminine energy (most days), but I also struggle with body dysmorphia issues. I see something so different a lot of the time when I see myself in the mirror. I know I shouldn't care...but it bothers me. 

Anyway...just had to quickly come on and share. Just getting ready to close the shop!

Later!

Hello world!!!  It's been a while!


Got so busy with life that I forgot I had this blog! And I think I should keep up with it because wow...memories I had forgotten over the years! What a great way to keep them documented!

What's going on with my life? Well I now own a vintage clothing store on Vancouver Island. And I love it! I've always loved being an entrepreneur. I've always had or have tried to have my own business. Photography, graphic art, art, singing, selling online, etc.  So I've made the jump to actually have a brick and mortar shop...and I've always loved fashion (used to want to be a fashion designer) so selling and educating about vintage clothing and the sustainability aspect is amazing! I'm happy!!

Still also doing my photography, and singing and recording, and so many things....we'll just call me the multifaceted entrepreneur. lol   I love so many things and have so many hobbies....why stick with just 1?

Here's a shot of my funky little shop!



In the meantime, I'm also working on my photography, hoping to get some images published in magazines in the near future. Gotta do some new shoots! Worked hard today getting images on websites that will help my work be seen by the right people. 

2 of my sons now are living on their own, and youngest (18) is still home. Poor kid just passed his knowledge test for his L drivers license but they had an issue with his eyes during some test. So we took him to eye doctor to sign papers saying everything is good...and took it back again. Eye doc missed 2 questions so we went back again...and then finally took the papers in. Now we wait for some other road guy to sign it. Then my son can finally get his L license. Oh and he also got prescribed glasses for regular sight to see better just before all of this...glasses came same day we took the form back lol

Well, keeping this short and sweet, back to work! Will try to post more often!

And if you're on Vancouver Island..look up Revival Vintage and come check it out and say hello! 


Later Gators!
