hanging out together

how has a week passed already?! i promise that it is not my intention to post only once a week. i mean, in all reality, you may not care. you may even like it better. but, i don’t. i really, really loved when i posted practically every day. it was not only a way that i stayed connected to myself and all of my thoughts, but i have always literally pictured you, my readers, as i write. i feel as if i am writing little letters to you all when i post more frequently, and though there are many of you that i have never met, i feel like this is where we come to “meet” each other. so, ultimately, i miss hanging out with you all.

speaking of hanging out, i don’t feel like i’ve done so much of it lately. i feel super busy with all of that regular life stuff that i’ve been craving so much. now, let me make this clear, in no way am i complaining about having my regular life back. i’m just saying, it’s been busy. more busy than i feel it’s been since we moved back to asheville, i believe. but, it’s mostly all good. so, what have i been doing?

what’s happening in your life? how has it been for you this past week? talk to me, friend. i’m listening. and, i promise to not be so silent here as much as i have been. it’s felt good to catch up a bit. (wouldn’t it be amazing if we could meet for coffee or wine one day soon?!).

love + peace.

  1. Hi there dearest Liz! Lovely update part, lovely pics and nice to see you keeping busy! Great work perks, and I’m so proud of you being about to photograph another wedding!!! Can totally feel your anger and frustration for your bros airbnb, total shit etiquette!
    My week is good, very busy with preppung to be away from the cafe for a week as we go on holiday on Thursday morning! (about bloody time, we are desperate for a week off and a change of scene!!)
    What date is your actual birthday? My Gemmas is the 22nd and we will be away!
    Ps. I love your regular updates, you know it!

    1. I just love this comment to pieces, Holly! It was like receiving a pen pal letter from my favorite pen pal! Isn’t it fun to keep in touch and up-to-date?!

      Oh, i”m so glad that you and your girl are having a holiday for a week! Where are you off to? I know that you two will enjoy every single minute together – and you both deserve it!

      My birthday is the 24th, so Gemma’s is just before mine. 🙂 Give her birthday wishes from me and my love! xoxo

  2. Maybe I have suggested it before, but you should be on the visitors bureau payroll for making Ashville look so appealing!

  3. My wife has been a little jealous this week, she says I have been spending to much time with my new girlfriend. I spent a little extra money to get her (my girlfriend) a makeover and she looks amazing. Please keep in mind though that my new girlfriend is a stand-up bass I recently bought. I named her Dolly. Wish I could show the before and after pics. Anyway, have a good day…..Joey
