One thing people don’t talk about enough is how ch One thing people don’t talk about enough is how chronic illness doesn’t just affect the person who’s diagnosed, it changes the lives of the people who love them, too. ❤️

Living with an invisible illness can feel incredibly isolating, but having a supportive spouse has made all the difference in my journey. Through countless doctor appointments, unanswered questions, difficult days, and moments when I’ve felt like giving up, my husband has been my biggest advocate, my safe place, and my constant source of strength.

I know not everyone has that kind of support, and my heart truly goes out to anyone navigating chronic illness on their own. No one should have to carry that weight by themselves.

To every caregiver, spouse, partner, family member, or friend who continues to show up with patience, compassion, and love; you matter more than you know. Thank you for making the hard days a little easier. 🤍

If you’re living with a chronic illness, tag someone who’s been there for you, or send this to the person who’s helped carry you through your hardest days. They deserve to know how much they’re appreciated.

Just pretending it’s a crisp, cool fall day outsid Just pretending it’s a crisp, cool fall day outside with the breeze slightly blowing right now instead of it being 100 degrees outside! 🤣 

But seriously though, one sip and you’ll see why this cozy fall drink is a fan favorite. Made with warm apple cider, cinnamon, caramel, and whipped cream, it tastes like autumn in a cup, and the best part? There’s no coffee, so it’s perfect for kids and anyone who isn’t a coffee drinker!

I finally shared my easy Starbucks copycat Caramel Apple Spice recipe on the blog, and it’s so simple to make at home whenever those fall cravings hit. 🤎 Comment “Recipe” below and I’ll send it straight to you!

Have you ever tried a Starbucks Caramel Apple Spice before, or will this be your first time? Let me know below! 👇🏻 And don’t forget to save this recipe for cozy season and share it with your fellow fall lovers!

Anyone else have this problem when you’re laying o Anyone else have this problem when you’re laying out by the pool or at the beach trying to read a good book? 😅

No matter what style, brand, or pair of sunglasses I buy, they ALWAYS slide down my nose the second I lay on my stomach. 🤦‍♀️ I’ve tried expensive ones, cheap ones, trendy ones—you name it. Same result every time!

At this point I’m convinced I either have a weirdly shaped face or gravity just has a personal vendetta against me. 😂

It’s honestly one of my biggest pool day pet peeves because I can never stay comfortable long enough to tan my back. So while the front of me is getting plenty of sunshine, the back is staying pale because I’m constantly giving up and rolling back over. ☀️🤣

Please tell me I’m not the only one! Do your sunglasses slide down your nose too, or have you found a magical pair that actually stays put? 👇😎

POV: You spend months growing a vegetable garden… POV: You spend months growing a vegetable garden… just to realize you’re actually gardening for the neighborhood deer. 😂🌱🦌

Apparently they decided to leave me exactly 4 cherry tomatoes and half a cucumber today. How thoughtful. 🤣

But wait until the end because you’ll see the sweetest little baby deer… and honestly, how am I supposed to stay mad after that?! 🥹❤️ They can have all the cherry tomatoes they want.

The only sad part? I haven’t harvested a single heirloom tomato this year because the deer keep eating them before they’re ripe enough to pick. 😅 I guess my garden has officially become a wildlife buffet.

Tell me I’m not the only one… What keeps eating your garden? Deer, squirrels, rabbits, or something else? ⬇️

It features multiple heat settings to keep older cats cozy, plus a gentle massage feature that’s perfect for helping senior cats relax after a long day of… well… napping. 😹 Safe to say Toby is obsessed!

Of course, little Miss Riley immediately decided she deserved a turn too. 😂 Apparently this cozy cat bed is approved by cats of all ages!

If you’ve been following my chronic illness journe If you’ve been following my chronic illness journey for a while, you already know how many doctors, specialists, tests, and appointments I’ve been through. Time after time, I was told I was “fine,” “everything looks normal,” or that it was “just anxiety.”

But after my appointment with @carolina_functional_neurology, I finally felt heard.

They agreed that what I’ve been experiencing is not normal. They believe I have POTS, and they also think there could be other neurological issues that need to be investigated. After years of questioning myself because of medical gaslighting, hearing a doctor validate my symptoms was something I’ll never forget.

At this point, I don’t think one Netflix documentary would be enough to cover this whole journey. 🤣

The saddest part? I know so many of you have messaged me saying you’ve experienced the exact same thing. It’s heartbreaking how common medical gaslighting has become, especially for people living with chronic illness or invisible illnesses.

So if you’re still searching for answers, this is your reminder: don’t stop advocating for yourself. Keep asking questions. Keep pushing for second opinions. Keep fighting for the care you deserve.

You know your body better than anyone else.

And if you’ve been medically gaslit too, I want you to know you’re not alone. ❤️

The stars of this business venture, Toby and Riley, have fully consented to the arrangement (by accepting treats), and they strongly support me staying home so I can dedicate more time to serving their every need. 😜

Yesterday felt like a turning point. 🤍 We drove t Yesterday felt like a turning point. 🤍

We drove to Charlotte to see a functional neurologist, and for the first time in a long time, I left an appointment feeling heard instead of dismissed.

After listening to everything I’ve been experiencing and putting me through what they jokingly called the “Brain Olympics” 😂 (seriously…SO many neurological tests), they agreed that my symptoms are not normal. They also agree that I likely have POTS, which honestly brought so much validation after everything I’ve been through.

The testing also showed signs that something may be going on with my cerebellum that’s causing my autonomic nervous system to misfire. Because of that, they want me to get a brain MRI to investigate further, including looking for things like Chiari malformation. They’re also ordering additional bloodwork and testing for celiac disease to make sure nothing else is contributing to everything I’ve been experiencing.

Am I nervous? Absolutely.

But for the first time in a very long time, I also feel hopeful.

I know none of these are answers yet, but having a doctor who believes me, listens, and is committed to figuring this out means more than I can explain. After years of wondering if I was just imagining things or being told my tests were “normal,” that validation alone feels like a huge win.

Thank you to everyone who has checked on me, prayed for me, encouraged me, and shared your own experiences. Your support has helped me keep pushing for answers when it would’ve been easier to give up.

I’m taking this journey one step at a time, and I’ll continue to keep you all updated. ❤️

Have you ever had to fight to get a doctor to truly listen to you? I’d love to hear your story in the comments. 👇

Cozy Fall Camper Tour

I have already shared with y’all my Fall Home Tour, but how about I share with you all my fall camper tour today?! It’s definitely not much, but I am loving the small fall touches I added to our camper this season.

I still like to decorate seasonally here too since we spend a lot of time here on the weekends!

Cozy Fall Camper
Such a cozy camper view!

Camper Dining Room

I love that the camper has a small little dining room table in it. So of course I had to style it up for fall. Just like at home, I love to add a small tablescape here.

Camper Fall Dining Table
Such a cute and simple table!

I ended up using some spare melamine Rae Dunn plates I already had at home and everything else I bought on clearance at Kirkland’s!

I am loving the black chargers, they fit in so well with the whole color scheme of the camper. And that cute little tiered tray is the perfect size for a little centerpiece!

Tiered Tray
How cute are those salt and pepper shakers?!
Camper Dining Room
These Rae Dunn plates are perfect here.

I try to keep a few practical things on the tiered tray, such as a salt and pepper shaker set. I also have a set of coasters on here so they are easy to grab and use.

I do have a few decorative pieces as well but I try to make it both pretty and functional.

Camper Kitchen

Another spot in my cozy fall camper tour, is our camper kitchen! It’s not huge, but I love the look and cozy feel to this little kitchen! I also love how it has an island space to it as well.

And do you see that cute faux subway tile below too?! It’s the modern farmhouse lover’s dream!

I can’t wait to add a few more things in here to get it exactly how I want it, but it is coming along nicely so far!

Camper Kitchen
If you like the rugs I have pictured here, then check out Boutique Rugs! I have a ton of their rugs and they are so great! Plus, you can use my code MACEDONIA55 to get 55% off your total!

Camper Living Room

Even though it’s a camper, I still try to make it super cozy for fall as well. Just like at our own home! That’s why I love to add in some textured throws and pillows as you can see below.

It gives the space so much warmth and instantly makes it feel more cozy in my opinion!

Cozy Fall Camper Living Room
I love all the textures from the pillows and throws here!

Cozy Fall Camper Bedroom

Even though the bedroom is small, I still try to make as cozy as I possibly can!

I used a cream colored comforter set to contrast against the darker colored cabinets here and I think it really brightens the space up a lot.

I also just moved the tray I had in the kitchen onto the bed for a quick little photo op as well!

Cozy Fall Camper Bedroom Tour
It may look cute, but the bed is not too comfy lol I think we need to invest in a new mattress!

If you can see there is a little opening behind the bed so I placed in some special photos of us there to make it feel more like home.

I also found the perfect small sized dough bowl to put in the middle and I filled it with some greenery as well. Greenery can always make a space feel more cozy and homey.

Close Up of Camper Bed
I have one of my favorite candles burning here from Antique Candle Co. Their sample packs are just the perfect size for our camper!

Outside

This is definitely my Hubby’s favorite part about the camper. We bought the lot for it as well so we get to decorate the whole outside too!

That’s why we did that string light patio refresh project here this summer. We are really enjoying the lights outside at night while we are cozied up next to a fire.

Camper Lot Outside
Look at that pretty view with all the lights on at night!

The fire pit space is awesome too. We didn’t really have to do anything with it, it was already there when we bought it, which was a huge perk!

We take advantage of it every nice night that we have while we are down there.

Camper Fire Pit
I love the cozy glow from a fire!

We also have a nice outdoor dining set where we can eat if the weather is nice too. And how cool is that solar LED umbrella we have above it too?!

I got hubby the zero gravity chairs pictured below as an anniversary present and we have really been enjoying them!

You can’t see it in the picture, but there is actually a TV outside of the camper too so we’ve been sitting in these enjoying a little outdoor TV watching too!

Outdoor Dining Set
Here is our dining set.
Zero Gravity Chairs
And here is our zero gravity chairs.

Conclusion

Well, I hope you all enjoyed my cozy fall camper tour! It is by no means completely finished, and we still have a little work to do, but we are so happy with it so far!

I think we have done a great job on making it ours and making it cozy, which is what I strive for at home too. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a lovely day my friends!

It would be so great for us once we have our own home and place to keep it, so we can travel whenever we’d like without the need for hotels or stopping somewhere overnight on a long trip! I also adore how you’ve decorated it. It looks beautiful and homey.

    Your campervan looks amazing! I There’s so much more space than in ours. What size is it? I love what you’ve done with the autumn decor. Is your dining set anchored to the floor? Just curious because I’ve never seen chairs in a camper.

One thing people don’t talk about enough is how ch One thing people don’t talk about enough is how chronic illness doesn’t just affect the person who’s diagnosed, it changes the lives of the people who love them, too. ❤️

Living with an invisible illness can feel incredibly isolating, but having a supportive spouse has made all the difference in my journey. Through countless doctor appointments, unanswered questions, difficult days, and moments when I’ve felt like giving up, my husband has been my biggest advocate, my safe place, and my constant source of strength.

I know not everyone has that kind of support, and my heart truly goes out to anyone navigating chronic illness on their own. No one should have to carry that weight by themselves.

To every caregiver, spouse, partner, family member, or friend who continues to show up with patience, compassion, and love; you matter more than you know. Thank you for making the hard days a little easier. 🤍

If you’re living with a chronic illness, tag someone who’s been there for you, or send this to the person who’s helped carry you through your hardest days. They deserve to know how much they’re appreciated.

Just pretending it’s a crisp, cool fall day outsid Just pretending it’s a crisp, cool fall day outside with the breeze slightly blowing right now instead of it being 100 degrees outside! 🤣 

But seriously though, one sip and you’ll see why this cozy fall drink is a fan favorite. Made with warm apple cider, cinnamon, caramel, and whipped cream, it tastes like autumn in a cup, and the best part? There’s no coffee, so it’s perfect for kids and anyone who isn’t a coffee drinker!

I finally shared my easy Starbucks copycat Caramel Apple Spice recipe on the blog, and it’s so simple to make at home whenever those fall cravings hit. 🤎 Comment “Recipe” below and I’ll send it straight to you!

Have you ever tried a Starbucks Caramel Apple Spice before, or will this be your first time? Let me know below! 👇🏻 And don’t forget to save this recipe for cozy season and share it with your fellow fall lovers!

Anyone else have this problem when you’re laying o Anyone else have this problem when you’re laying out by the pool or at the beach trying to read a good book? 😅

No matter what style, brand, or pair of sunglasses I buy, they ALWAYS slide down my nose the second I lay on my stomach. 🤦‍♀️ I’ve tried expensive ones, cheap ones, trendy ones—you name it. Same result every time!

At this point I’m convinced I either have a weirdly shaped face or gravity just has a personal vendetta against me. 😂

It’s honestly one of my biggest pool day pet peeves because I can never stay comfortable long enough to tan my back. So while the front of me is getting plenty of sunshine, the back is staying pale because I’m constantly giving up and rolling back over. ☀️🤣

Please tell me I’m not the only one! Do your sunglasses slide down your nose too, or have you found a magical pair that actually stays put? 👇😎

POV: You spend months growing a vegetable garden… POV: You spend months growing a vegetable garden… just to realize you’re actually gardening for the neighborhood deer. 😂🌱🦌

Apparently they decided to leave me exactly 4 cherry tomatoes and half a cucumber today. How thoughtful. 🤣

But wait until the end because you’ll see the sweetest little baby deer… and honestly, how am I supposed to stay mad after that?! 🥹❤️ They can have all the cherry tomatoes they want.

The only sad part? I haven’t harvested a single heirloom tomato this year because the deer keep eating them before they’re ripe enough to pick. 😅 I guess my garden has officially become a wildlife buffet.

Tell me I’m not the only one… What keeps eating your garden? Deer, squirrels, rabbits, or something else? ⬇️

If you’ve been following my chronic illness journe If you’ve been following my chronic illness journey for a while, you already know how many doctors, specialists, tests, and appointments I’ve been through. Time after time, I was told I was “fine,” “everything looks normal,” or that it was “just anxiety.”

But after my appointment with @carolina_functional_neurology, I finally felt heard.

They agreed that what I’ve been experiencing is not normal. They believe I have POTS, and they also think there could be other neurological issues that need to be investigated. After years of questioning myself because of medical gaslighting, hearing a doctor validate my symptoms was something I’ll never forget.

At this point, I don’t think one Netflix documentary would be enough to cover this whole journey. 🤣

The saddest part? I know so many of you have messaged me saying you’ve experienced the exact same thing. It’s heartbreaking how common medical gaslighting has become, especially for people living with chronic illness or invisible illnesses.

So if you’re still searching for answers, this is your reminder: don’t stop advocating for yourself. Keep asking questions. Keep pushing for second opinions. Keep fighting for the care you deserve.

You know your body better than anyone else.

And if you’ve been medically gaslit too, I want you to know you’re not alone. ❤️

🚨 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨 I’ve decided to start an Onl 🚨 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

I’ve decided to start an OnlyPaws account so I can finally quit my job and become a full-time stay-at-home cat mom. 😹

I mean, who wouldn’t pay premium content prices to see adorable cat toe beans, fluffy paws, and exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of two spoiled indoor cats living their best lives? 🐾😂

The stars of this business venture, Toby and Riley, have fully consented to the arrangement (by accepting treats), and they strongly support me staying home so I can dedicate more time to serving their every need. 😜

Honestly, with content this cute, retirement might be closer than I thought. 🤣

Yesterday felt like a turning point. 🤍 We drove t Yesterday felt like a turning point. 🤍

We drove to Charlotte to see a functional neurologist, and for the first time in a long time, I left an appointment feeling heard instead of dismissed.

After listening to everything I’ve been experiencing and putting me through what they jokingly called the “Brain Olympics” 😂 (seriously…SO many neurological tests), they agreed that my symptoms are not normal. They also agree that I likely have POTS, which honestly brought so much validation after everything I’ve been through.

The testing also showed signs that something may be going on with my cerebellum that’s causing my autonomic nervous system to misfire. Because of that, they want me to get a brain MRI to investigate further, including looking for things like Chiari malformation. They’re also ordering additional bloodwork and testing for celiac disease to make sure nothing else is contributing to everything I’ve been experiencing.

Am I nervous? Absolutely.

But for the first time in a very long time, I also feel hopeful.

I know none of these are answers yet, but having a doctor who believes me, listens, and is committed to figuring this out means more than I can explain. After years of wondering if I was just imagining things or being told my tests were “normal,” that validation alone feels like a huge win.

Thank you to everyone who has checked on me, prayed for me, encouraged me, and shared your own experiences. Your support has helped me keep pushing for answers when it would’ve been easier to give up.

I’m taking this journey one step at a time, and I’ll continue to keep you all updated. ❤️

Have you ever had to fight to get a doctor to truly listen to you? I’d love to hear your story in the comments. 👇

Anyone else flip the switch to fall mode the secon Anyone else flip the switch to fall mode the second the Fourth of July is over? 🍂😂

I hope y’all had the best Fourth of July! ❤️🤍💙 We had the sweetest, low-key Independence Day celebrating at home, and honestly… it was one of my favorite holidays yet.
