Very interesting, I’ll follow for a while since I’m unable to upgrade financially. Sorry but I hope to share my own story at some point. I related to yours so much. The details and age are different but it’s worth a read when I manage time to share it. I’m working three jobs now to attempt to make reality and day dreams meet somewhere in the middle.
My crafting is on hold while we explore our options.
My husband of almost 50 years recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s after skull fracture caused traumatic brain injuries, hearing loss, as well as rib and neck fractures requiring spinal fusion surgery, halo worn for three months saved his life. With many difficulties after a roll over accident 6 years ago. Pandemic caused our very successful business of 50 years to fail. Portland has been a difficult place for us to survive since but our family is here and we wouldn’t leave them. Our journey now is transitioning into something new with caregiving being our priority. Hope to watch your new journey.
Hi Emily, nice intro and don't mind getting these to my inbox randomly! It's interesting I always wanted to live a creative risk taking life but my mind is perhaps too analytic and I ended up with a stable desk job that crafts in my spare time. So I find your story interesting and would love to hear more about your passions. Best of luck to this newsletter!
Thanks for the sweet message Angela. It’s true we are all made differently.
And what a joy that is, imagine if we were all the same. It would be so boring. How would we find love? How would we find out about ourselves if every single person was the same? Sometimes I dream of the stability of a desk job, But I know in my heart that there are too many adventures to be had even if it leaves me feeling unloaded sometimes. I hope you enjoy the journey. Thanks for being here.
Emily hearing your journey’s spirals, ruptures, repairs, and sparkles makes me feel comforted in the twisty nature of being alive ‼️hmm. one of my interests is in interior spaces so Id love to see what interior spaces and architecture intrigues you
