Coloring Books & Cracker Barrel

Hey y'all! I hope you're all having a great weekend! I'm having a great day! Today I got this huge stack of coloring books from my grandmother; isn't this awesome?! I'm so excited to color in all of these, it'll take me years most likely lol. Everyone in my family knows how obsessed I am with coloring, so it's sweet when they gift me things like this for my hobby :)

"You Are Functioning Like A Fairly Normal Person. Good Job!" colored by me :)

I gave myself the award above today lol. Today was one of those mentally and physically "good" days. I didn't feel much anxiety even though I was around a lot of people. I was able to enjoy my time out in the world. And I didn't feel self conscious. It's the little things like that that make life so good sometimes! 

I went to Cracker Barrel for the first time in years and me and my mom were in heaven! We were scurrying around the store looking at all the treats and goodies. My poor dad was kind of in hell with the combination of crowds and shopping haha, but he survived. My mom got me my favorite cherry drop candy and this beautiful peacock journal!

Here's the cover! It even has a gold peacock feather bookmark. Down below is the inside cover, isn't it lovely?

Fun fact: My mom planned, decorated, and threw me a peacock themed graduation party from high school! She titled it "Proud as a Peacock", isn't that adorable?! Everything was blue, green, and purple, with peacock feathers and I think even a peacock cake if I remember correctly? It was awesome; my mom is the best lol. Anyway, this journal reminds me of that happy time and how proud of myself I was and how loved I felt. 

So yes, what a good day :) I'm going to work out now (because I ate a carb feast at the good ol' Cracker Barrel) and then probably...COLOR! I hope you all had a good day too, see y'all tomorrow!
