i love jake with short hair (well, i guess in his case it's fur, but it looks like hair) and my favourite time of year is definitely haircut time (for him, not me). after hinting about booking him in at the kennel to have a number two, he finally went today, and boy does he look better (like a rat/mutt), smell better and he's even better to cuddle now (no allergies from the long fur).

my february on film is going pretty well. i'm planning to do weekly recaps so my blog doesn't become no man's land. which, you know, it seems to have become. lately i've been so busy with church stuff and life stuff, and if i'm honest, i've not even thought about therosyfreckle. i've been so blessed to be surrounded by so many amazing people over the past month and my diary has been pretty much full since the start of january.

a few days ago, i started one of my "brain fart" posts, where i just open up a new post and typed (like i've started to do here) and i ended up talking about some of the bible verses that have really helped me and struck a chord with me over the past year or so. i nearly posted it, but something held me back. i know that this is my place to let it all out, but i also don't want people to be uncomfortable with things that i post. i want to be open and honest and being openly honest, my faith is a huge part of who i am. i try so hard every day to live my life as a disciple.
i am going to post the blog post, but i'm going to have it as a jump cut post so you don't have to read it. i don't want to bash people over the head with a bible, but i'd love people to feel the grace and peace that i get from knowing and loving jesus. (seriously, when i was "too cool" to talk about my faith, i thought people who said that were weirdos, but being able to see others feel that sense of peace is amazing) i want the post on my blog so that it is there for people to read. i am going to put it out there, and you can do with it what you want.

see you tomorrow!

  2. These pictures are darling, he looks so cute and innocent!

    It's nice to be too busy for the blog sometimes. I have this idea, that I'm truly happy when I forget the blog because that means I'm just so caught up in life and enjoying it... But then again, at the end of the day it's nice to blog to sort of take a pause and realize just how happy you are and what's going on around you.

    I would really have enjoyed reading that post that you decided not to put up. Don't worry about putting anyone off, post whatever you want x

    1. yes, totally agree! i'd much rather be too busy to blog than be doing nothing. and i like having this blog to come back to as it gives me time to actually stop and be grateful for life.

      i am planning to post it next week, it's just going to be a jump cut so people can choose whether they want to read it or not :)

  4. I LOVE the duvet in the first photo! Post whatever you want, this is your space; you define it, don't let it define you (if that makes sense :/... ) If people don't like it they will just stop reading a particular post. Personally, I'm looking forward to it and I hope you are too! Xxx
