All this storming has got to lead to a rainbow

The past few weeks have been quite unpleasant, to say the least. I remember thinking last Monday, that things couldn't get worse. Boy, was I wrong after all the "incidents"! It's rather aggravating that I find myself in this similar cycle quite a few times - where I get rained on and doubt and feel bad about myself, and then I get mad at myself for allowing someone to make me feel that way. It really amazes me how people can pull some shady mean stuff collaboratively but then come at you in a different way individually.

The Year of the Mouse (Rat) is coming up, so here's to hoping it brings some squeaky goodness! Since I had MLK Day off, I finally was able to go out to the city to get some supplies. We had our car standing on the street where my grandparents' apartment used to be. It was really weird not being able to go upstairs to visit them, you know? It hadn't really hit me before because I hadn't been there for a while. But just waiting in the car, gazing up at something that is now in your past, was a bit much to take in.

Before I make this into a depressing post, I do have something fun to share! My cactus pups finally came in! There are just so darn cute! I love how they each come with a little item.
