As your near ne...Thank you for this post, Natalia. As your near neighbor to the north, we experienced that delightful interlude of snow last week also. Your words resonate with me - as an introvert it was kind of comforting for awhile to accept being socially isolated but as the weeks and months went by, the wear and tear set in. We in Canada care deeply about the political status of America and it's been heartbreaking to see the unrest. It's an uneasy balance to stay connected to information but not feel the anxiety of it. Thank you for setting this up as a safe place to speak from our hearts. I'm with you.... it's still dark right now but there is a tiny dawning light on the horizon. I love your pale pink and spring welcoming photos. Blessings on you and Justin and your dear Anya who shared her tulips. xo karenKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04243448881221465601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759460753738753423.post-8636278814885898092021-03-07T05:05:51.628-08:002021-03-07T05:05:51.628-08:00love that first photo - so playful and lovely!

Like you said, they are feminine as well as comfortable enough to wear around the house. I am a great believer in people doing whatever makes them feel good, and I think this is especially true in these extraordinary times. Your amber jewellery is gorgeous and I do love the quirkiness and colourfulness of Nordic socks.<br />We did have a brief - and unusual - episode of snow here too, which I thoroughly enjoyed as it came accompanied with sunshine! I have been struggling a bit as well, weird and vivid dreams disrupting my sleeping pattern, but while I'm not yet seeing that light at the end of the tunnel, Spring always brings joy to my heart! I am a highly sensitive person too, by the way, so I kind of get how you are feeling.

I'm struggling with seeing the light at t he end of the tunnel, while it being so far away, plus people blowing off pre-cautions, that I fear will extend the crisis. That coupled with the political and social unrest, people standing up against systemic racism but the back lash that the right throws on it, and I am emotionally drained some days.
