Spring is here, but it doesn’t feel like it.

Today’s Journal-

Spring is here, just call me flower child.

Spring is one of the most beautiful times of the year, besides October (my birthday month). Things are blooming, people are outside and the city is bustling. The ‘Rona has most of us stuck inside or risking their lives on the front line taking care of the sick and needy. It’s kinda sad not being able to attend spring festivals or go brunching in the square, hell! I miss having toilet paper in the aisles. I’ll admit, it sucks being inside all day, so I don’t. I’m not the best “rule follower”, but for the sake of my mental health—-I get out!

Today we decided to shoot this look in front of a cherry blossom tree. They are popping up all over Memphis, so I couldn’t help but be a part of the beauty. I wore a lovely, floral, mini dress from Pretty Little Thing that made me feel sexy and sweet. (I got it for a steal! 50% off) Anyhow, I felt darling today, as the petal floated across my face I just reveled in the moment. A moment of joy, a mental break from the stresses of the world; it felt good to get dressed up, throw on some heels, put on my makeup and go out…even if it was for an hour.

Well, back to quarantine…Check out my “Quarantine Creation Series on ig @aliglad_carpediem. We’re on day 3!
