✋🏼Lake Days 🌅
—————————
Who knew a summer week back in MI could be so healing? Spending quality time with family, going to the 4H Fair again to see the baby farm aminals, jet skiing on the lake, grill outs, movie nights, puppy cuddles, even a cousin’s wedding! So much joy, love, drinks, and relaxation - all very much needed 🫶🏼

The things we do in production 🤷🏻♀️
-🎬~
You haven’t worked in Production til you’ve had to go dumpster diving for something SuPeR iMpOrTaNt that *may have been* accidentally thrown away.
Even better when you actually find it!!!
Swipe for our real, live reactions 😱 as we save the day (again, you’re welcome 🤗)

PS - This is as close to a hard launch I’ve ever come…

Maddy- It’s November 1st and we’re officially no longer roommates 😔 it’s a bit bitter sweet…
What started with an in promptu coloring session grew into an incredible friendship filled with Disney movie nights, family dinners, gay concerts, live theater shows, and longgg late night✨trauma✨dumps #iykyk
We were there for each other thru crushing heartbreaks, medical diagnosises, difficult boundary changes, and SO MANY levels of self discovery.
Roommates, sure. But you’ve definitely been more like a sister to me over the years 🫶🏼 I feel like we found each other at the exact right time- we needed each other. 💙 Thank you for always being honest with me when the truth was hard to hear and for lying to me about when a concert starts so we can actually get out the door on time 🤪
I’m so incredibly proud of how far you’ve come. It’s been an honor to be apart of your life journey as you continue to embrace more and more of the Badass Slytherin Lioness you are 💪🏼😎🐍🦁
This isn’t the end for us of course, but it is the end of this Friends Household Era we created where we write inside jokes on the chalkboard wall and yell BLESS YOU from across the apartment after one of us sneezes 🥲The kitty will miss jumping on your desk during your meetings and I will miss you randomly laying on the kitchen floor to avoid blacking out…
BUT ☝🏼 you aren’t too far away, so I can still help with your hair for ComicCon or fancy events and I’ll still be calling you for outfit advice 😌
You’ll always have an invite to Family Dinner 🍽️
Come over anytime, I’ll call the gate 🤗

Lodge Selfies

Love curling up by a fireplace next to a cold, snowy window with a journal or a good book. A bit of people watching is fun too 🤗

Once upon a time at The Parker in Palm Springs, CA
•🎬•
Random pix from last month’s travel job adventure. Great food, amazing people, incredible teamwork. Very blessed to have a few quiet moments before and after each day of organized chaos.

7 years of being alive, 7 new tattoos to celebrate 😎

What’s funnier than 24?
25 😂
—————————
Year 24- it’s been weird.
Honestly, I’d expect nothing less, though the lessons were intense. From work/life balance to physical health challenges, I’ve gotten stronger in more ways than I ever could’ve imagined. I’ve lost good friends and I’ve lost bad habits. I’ve gained more mental clarity than ever, and yet my existential angst has never been higher 😂
☝🏼 The irony of that has been a great motivator.
SO MUCH can change in a year. That will never cease to amaze me. And although my hope for humanity sometimes feels like an emotional roller coaster, I would much rather be hurt and disappointed than detached with my heart frozen over.
All of this being said…
Year 25- Come and get me 😉 I’m ready 💪🏼

Y’all said to flood social media with photos of us kids at work in the #commercialindustry #productionlife #commercialproduction #onset🎥🎬
I say #challengeaccepted 😏
So here’s snippets from a job last summer. Mostly pictures of my Captain 🫡 in his power stance 💪🏼 BUT there are some fun #behindthescenes #setshenanigans that lay people don’t really get to see. Love when art Dept gets to really play 😂

10 months older, I won’t give in. Now that I’m clean, I’m never gonna risk it.

That moment when the sunrise finally hits your face and it’s like you’re feeling it for the first time…
It’s the little things, ya know?
This photo, a year old today, was taken on the day I was at my 10 months older/sober from a toxic relationship that was destroying my mental and physical health. Thank you to those who stuck around for those first 10 months…. The drought was the very worst. 🌧️ In this photo, I just so happened to be 1st AD on set that day :) Very grateful for this journey so far 🙏🏼

✨Tales of a Traveling Kitten✨
Starring The 10 Stages of Kitty Faces
•😻•
6 hour flight, 5 thousand miles, a 4 hour vet visit, 3 rounds of sedatives before each flight, 2 flights total, 1 emotionally attached kitten 🐱
That being said- Linah traveled really well actually! A little discomfort but I did reach in to pet and soothe every once in a while ☺️ I can’t help it! Plus, she did pick up on my GAD spiking up (cuz, ya know, people lol) and I could tell she really liked being with me thru it.
What a cutie kitty 🤗
5/10 would recommend for longer trips only. She was definitely needed on this one and did her job very well.
P.S. @sherry_cause_i_can this post was just for you 🫶🏼 🐱
