Andersen Update

6/25/2019

​Five months have passed and so much has happened. ​

​​I'm in a completely different headspace as well as a completely different relationship space.

These days are the days I prayed for during the entirety of my 20's. 

The hostility that used to linger around us is gone!

We talk and enjoy each others company, we work as a team under all fronts, we don't blindly agree with each other but we discuss differences respectfully and we focus on only showing love to each other!

We have so much fun raising Seraphim, watching her grow.

She's fully caught up to her age and thriving, I say my little genius but I could be biased! 😆

She's got such a full personality and stands up for what she wants and cares about. Right now she says she wants to be a doctor so we've started to nurture those interests.😍

The hubs is doing a lot of work to stay on track, we both finally got into trauma therapy!

An accident derailed a few things for him, lots of triggers during high stress times but he's remaining strong.

I love the relationship we've built and the place God has brought us to. I know it will only get better from here!

But I did a lot to get here in a short time, Self-care is at the top of my priority list.

I treat myself how I want others to treat me😍

You can become who you've always wanted but that means doing things differently..

The definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over while expecting a different outcome.

So I started a morning routine; I take 15 minutes to journal, workout then a quick soak. All before starting my day.

I pay attention to what I eat, most of the time and take time for myself. Time that I can be alone with my thoughts and process.

I speak nicely to myself and try not to let garbage fill my head or come out of my mouth.

Most of all, I'm accountable for everything I do, say and feel. It is My job to be happy and do the things that help my brain stay at peace.

We all have bad days but I haven't had a true episode in a year! I'm no longer controlled by the racing thoughts or hyperfocusing.

I'm learning who I am deep down, I'm learning the girl that was invalidated and pushed way down years ago.

We are on our way to big and exciting beginnings!
