It's been hectic! But mostly good? I moved and started a new job this past month, which was why I've been pretty quiet. Also finally ran my marathon!

I bought a house! πŸ™πŸ»πŸ˜­πŸ’œ I didn't think that was going to happen for a while after the great deal I had over the summer fell through, but the realtor I worked with...

26 miles and some 5,000+ feet of elevation gain later, we did it :) from north rim to south rim of the Grand Canyon with @adastra πŸ’œ we hiked across the canyon in a single day. One of my fave hikes and I'm so glad I got to share it with my best friend πŸ˜„

NICE JOB!! We did SKB to PR to BA back in May (only 19 miles), but three of our group did rim-to-rim-to-rim (43-ish miles). Β Going again next year.

And we're going to hike the Grand Canyon rim to rim! I've done the r2r a few times now, but it'll be @adastra's first time. It's one of my favorite hikes - I just think it's so incredibly beautiful and special and I'm so excited to share it with my best friend πŸ₯°

This is actually our second time going to the Grand Canyon together...

Great photos. Have you hiked to the turquoise pools? You should hike down into the canyon past the Havasupai check point, all the way to Moony Falls. When I was younger. I spent Thanksgiving Week camped above the falls. We cooked a ham and a turkey in a rock oven that we constructed. It was very cold, Snow was on the rims. And the days were so short because the sun was so low in the sky that the canyon walls blocked the light. Long 14-16 hour nights. A wonderful memory, just like your fantastic photos.

It's sort of felt like 2024 has had it out for me from the get go πŸ˜…. Every time it feels like the dust is settling, something new. I'm trying to find some grace in it, and in myself. Everything is a learning experience.

Bear with me. I know I get rambly on a good day sometimes, and it's currently well past my bed time....

Spoke too soon on the house. The sellers lied about how much they owed on the loan I was assuming. Got blindsided with the extra when I was sent loan paperwork. Counter offered on purchase price to cancel out the difference and they declined. Should have known it was too good of a price to be true.

Unfortunately everything is kind of fucked now. Already...

I know you probably don’t want to hear the old adage that β€œit wasn’t meant to be”, but things will work out for the better. As for the sellers…….karma is a bitch!!

Yesterday I did my 14th and 15th tattoos on skin, and it was also exactly one month since I started tattooing on skin. Still also practicing on fake skin, drawing, and observing the artists in the shop as I continue my apprenticeship. Still enjoying it a lot!

Working two jobs full time has been catching up to me though. I'm a little mentally spent/fried, but...

Righto. I assumed it was something like that, but I've never used one myself. Dark water actually looks cosy, like bathing in night. Do they make bath bombs that glitter, so you come out of the bath sparkling like a Twilight vampire? It would get glitter everywhere, but it would look impressive. Something to use just before moving, perhaps.

Looks so nice!
