if my life flashed before my eyes...

I'm still in the recovery process from my eye shot, and I'll post more about that soon.  In the meantime, I didn't want to leave you guys hanging but I don't have anymore posts pre-written.  An interesting topic came up recently && I decided to use it for my post today.


"If your life flashed before your eyes, what 3 moments do you think you will see?"



I'd like to think that if my ENTIRE life flashed before my eyes, I'd see more than 3 moments aha.  But for the sake of the topic, I'll tryyy my best and choose 3.


  1. When my son was born: It was such a crazy whirlwind, NON traditional birthing story.  Maybe some day I'll share that with you.  Maybe. aha!
  2. When my mother died:  Easily the worst day of my entire life.  Not a happy memory, but it affected me more than anything ever has.  I know it'd be a moment that flashes by...
  3. When I met my biological sister:  Such an awesome moment for me.  Truly.  I'm so happy to have her in my life.  My son && myy significant other were with me, and I can't imagine it being any more perfect.  
I can't stare at this screen too long right now, it still gets my eye angry.  So I hope you enjoyed my little moments.  I wish I could elaborate for you a little more, but I'm doing my best!  I'll have an update on my eye condition soon.  I'm seeing Tori Amos this weekend [I cannot express to you how excited I am for this], so my weekend will be busy!

My Julep giveaway ends this weekend, and I'll post the winner on Monday!  Have a great weekend, and don't forget to get your entries in for the giveaway! <333

  1. I'm sorry about your eye! I hope it gets better soon :) Also, wow choosing only 3 moments is hard! I have no idea what my 3 moments would be. I'm sorry about your mom but I'm glad memory 1 and 3 are happier moments :)

    1. This eye... lol it's so inconvenient && expensive. I've spent over $700 at the doctor in a week, and I have insurance! Blah. Yeah picking 3 moments was hard... you should try it aha!

  2. Oh, I'm so sorry about your mum! It must be such a terrible thing to go through, especially when you're so young.

    Doom, eye shot does not sound like fun!

    Loved this idea for a post!
