"there are no mistakes in lace, just misdirected threads that present a new challenge."

wow, if ever a quote was meant for me this week, this is it! what a reminder that God has a plan for me and my life and it's not always going to be the same as my own. i just wanted to say that i REALLY appreciate all the supportive messages you've sent me regarding my previous post. it feels so good to be cared for and loved and i am so reminded of how blessed my life truly is by the people in it. so, thank you. ♥

a new plan has been set into motion - my apartment has been listed and i'm hoping to find the right person to take over my lease for the month of july. i've photographed my furniture to sell. my sister and nephew were over today with boxes and a measuring tape. aimee is going to help me by listing everything i'd like to sell. i'll be packing in my "downtime" over the next couple of days and following week. she's letting me store my belongings at her home for the month of july so that i can work, finish with my obligations here, take care of my car, and save enough to move. i have so much to do but i already feel a million times better than yesterday.

on tuesday, i had a short photoshoot with a girl named ariana in corona del mar. i'd never been to the location much less photographed there and it was so beautiful!! she was an absolute doll and i'm really pleased with how these images turned out.
