Yesterday, I worked out at 6am.
I ate my favorite toasted naked longganisa with brown talangka rice at Breakfast Bin.
Then, I bought some office essentials from Human Nature. I am especially excited to use my Mori Notes gadget case in a cheery pineapple print. It is designed to smaller gadget essentials like cords and plugs.
It is sewn by underprivileged artisan moms, allowing them to earn as they work from home.
I also had coffee...
...and I finished crocheting this gray cowl for my friend Bernadette, who’s celebrating her birthday this week.
I also started crocheting a cowl in sky blue and pink hand-dyed yarn.
I do like investing in quality items, but occasionally purchase trendy things too. I bought the Adeline sling bag from local vegan leather goods store, The Satchel Diva. Their bags are lightweight and on-trend, which are two factors I look for in an everyday handbag.
Then, I went to the dermatologist...
...and had my pixie trimmed at the salon next door.
I offered eggs and prayed for my intercessions at St. Clare.
And I had a lovely late lunch at Barkin Blends Dog Cafe.
They have doggo burgers as take-away treats for puppers at home.
I had their delicious carbonara...
...and latte!
And I had the best time with their doggo buddies.
I couldn’t resist my favorite dog Ella!
Finally, I ended my day with a 90-minute massage at our neighborhood spa.
I enjoy self-care and crafting because I feel centered after doing the things I love. I can’t wait to go back to work after unwinding with some fiberarts, dogs, and retail therapy. That’s how I live balanced life, with a little pixie dust for good measure.
