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? ⬇️

Since my first baby, Toby, officially turned 10 ye Since my first baby, Toby, officially turned 10 years old last month, I knew I had to spoil him with something extra special. 🥹🐈 And let me tell you… this heated therapeutic cat bed has been the biggest hit!

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’re looking for the best cat bed for senior cats, or just want to spoil your furry best friend, I highly recommend this one.

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. 👇

Little Miss Riley turns into a fierce little huntr Little Miss Riley turns into a fierce little huntress every time she spots a bird outside! 😹🐦 The second she sees one from our screened-in porch, the cat chirping begins and it cracks me up every single time.

She acts like she’s ready to take on the entire bird population, but let’s be honest… this indoor cat has never hunted anything a day in her life. 😂 Somehow that screened-in porch makes her feel all big and bad!

As a cat mom, I love watching all the funny cat behaviors that come out when Toby and Riley start bird watching. Those adorable chirps, chattering noises, and intense stares are seriously the cutest thing ever. 🐾

Do your cats make that funny chirping sound when they see birds, squirrels, or other animals outside? Tell me I’m not the only one with a tiny feather-obsessed hunter living in my house! 😹👇

I know the beach isn’t everyone’s favorite place, I know the beach isn’t everyone’s favorite place, but for me, there’s something incredibly healing about sitting by the ocean and listening to the waves roll in. 🌊

Living with chronic illness can feel overwhelming at times, and stress has a way of piling up faster than we realize. But the moment I sink my toes into the sand, breathe in the salty air, and watch the endless horizon, everything seems a little lighter.

A beach day isn’t just a vacation, it’s a reset for my mind, body, and soul. Whether it’s a quick walk along the shore or hours spent listening to the waves, the ocean always reminds me to slow down, breathe, and be present.

Anyone else feel like the beach is the ultimate stress relief? 🩵🌴

My Favorite Spring Candles

Y’all know my love for candles is strong. And I have shared in the past my favorite Fall and Christmas candles. So now I thought it would be fun to share all my favorite candles for spring.

You also know if you have been around here enough, that I am in love with Antique Candle Co! Their candles are seriously the best and I love being able to support a wonderful small business like themselves.

I figured I would share with you all some of my all time favorites in case you are looking for some wonderful spring scents for your home too!

My Favorite Spring Candles

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Grapefruit

Grapefruit is one of their new spring candles for 2021. They surprised us all and came out with a total of three NEW scents this year.

This includes this one, lemon eucalyptus, and peach apricot. I was so excited to hear that they released so many scents this year because they normally only do one new scent per season!

Spring Candle on Tray
I love styling these candles on trays if you can’t tell!

Grapefruit is a bright scent of sugared pink grapefruit with vibrant citrus zest, highlighted by floral notes of peach blossom and eucalyptus leaf.

Antique Candle Co

Lemon Eucalyptus

Lemon Eucalyptus is such a wonder spring scent as well. It has such a great clean fragrance to it and I love the subtle hint of lemon it brings to the table too.

It’s a very unique scent and I haven’t ever had a candle quite like it!

Lemon Eucalyptus Candle
Such a perfect candle for spring!

Lemon Eucalyptus is a fresh aroma of bright lemon and sweet orange, highlighted with a bouquet of eucalyptus leaves, citrus blooms, and wild mint.

Antique Candle Co

Peach Apricot

Peach Apricot was a huge surprise to me! I had no idea they were even releasing this one so I was super happy when it arrived in the mail!

This one is officially launching on April 27th and I am loving the combination of both peach and apricot together.

They already have a Georgia Peach scent too, which is awesome as well, but this one doesn’t have as strong of a peach scent as that one. This one is more subtle, which I love!

Peach Apricot Candle
I am loving this new one!

A sweet medley of fresh peach and apricot, blended with sugary vanilla, soft jasmine, and clean citrus.

Antique Candle Co

Country Pear

Country Pear is a classic and one of their collaboration candles. This is another thing that I love about this company.

They try to partner and collaborate with as many bloggers and influencers as they can to make their own unique and wonderful scent.

This one was created by the very successful and talented Instagram Influencer, Cotton Stem. Country Pear just celebrated it’s two year anniversary and I am so happy that it is sticking around because it is honestly one of my favorite spring candles.

It has such a subtle yet sweet scent and it is super fragrant as well.

Country Pear Candle
Such a cozy and delicious scent!

Country Pear by Cotton Stem is a cozy blend of fresh golden pear with rich plum, highlighted with brown sugar vanilla and soft notes of roasted hazelnut.

Antique Candle Co

Lavender Vanilla

Lavender Vanilla is another one of my go to’s when ordering spring candles. I love this one especially for the bedroom or bathroom areas.

The lavender scent gives me such a calming and relaxing feeling. I love lighting it a few hours before bed.

I believe it helps me sleep well during the night if I do this every night. Plus, it makes your whole bedroom smell delightful too!

Lavender Vanilla Candle
I have the lavender vanilla candle placed on a bathroom tiered tray here.

Lavender Vanilla is a soothing bouquet of fresh florals and lavender blossoms, highlighted with warm vanilla bean.

Antique Candle Co

Can’t Decide What Spring Candles to Get?

Well then, good news! Antique Candle Co decided to release a HUGE sample box of their Locally Grown Favorites and it includes all of the spring candles listed above plus even more!

It comes with a total of nine sample sized candles! This would be a perfect way to try them all out and to decide which one is your favorite.

Also, you can try the new Peach Apricot scent before it’s official launch date in this box as well. As I mentioned above, the Peach Apricot isn’t set to officially release until April 27th, but this box is coming out on April 13th!

Locally Grown Sample Pack
All the cute little candles that come in the Locally Grown Sample Pack!

Also, on the same day, they are doing an Antique Restock. If you haven’t heard of that before, it is another one of my reasons why I just love Antique Candle Co so much.

What they do is find several antique pieces such as vintage tins, teacups, crock ware, stoneware, and so much more.

Then, they fill these pieces with their delicious soy candle scents and you can get a truly one of a kind piece! I absolutely love when they do these restocks but they sell out so quickly so be sure to set your alarms and mark your calendars!

Have y’all ever had any spring candles from Antique Candle Co before?? If so, I would love to hear what some of your favorite scents are too! Let me know below!

    I am a huge sucker for all things grapefruit when it comes to picking scents for our house. We use candles and wax melts to keep things smelling fresh and my go-to wax melt is a grapefruit-based scent. I’m going to have to check out these candles!

    Yes, another candle lover! My favorite smells are roses, vanilla, and sandalwood. But cinnamon and fruity candles(that don’t smell like medicine), are always great. One of my favorite things to do is light a candle, and just do my work alongside it. But I’m having trouble with finding candles that actually have scents when they burn, so this seems perfect. I’ll certainly check them out, thanks for sharing!

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. 👇

Little Miss Riley turns into a fierce little huntr Little Miss Riley turns into a fierce little huntress every time she spots a bird outside! 😹🐦 The second she sees one from our screened-in porch, the cat chirping begins and it cracks me up every single time.

She acts like she’s ready to take on the entire bird population, but let’s be honest… this indoor cat has never hunted anything a day in her life. 😂 Somehow that screened-in porch makes her feel all big and bad!

As a cat mom, I love watching all the funny cat behaviors that come out when Toby and Riley start bird watching. Those adorable chirps, chattering noises, and intense stares are seriously the cutest thing ever. 🐾

Do your cats make that funny chirping sound when they see birds, squirrels, or other animals outside? Tell me I’m not the only one with a tiny feather-obsessed hunter living in my house! 😹👇

I know the beach isn’t everyone’s favorite place, I know the beach isn’t everyone’s favorite place, but for me, there’s something incredibly healing about sitting by the ocean and listening to the waves roll in. 🌊

Living with chronic illness can feel overwhelming at times, and stress has a way of piling up faster than we realize. But the moment I sink my toes into the sand, breathe in the salty air, and watch the endless horizon, everything seems a little lighter.

A beach day isn’t just a vacation, it’s a reset for my mind, body, and soul. Whether it’s a quick walk along the shore or hours spent listening to the waves, the ocean always reminds me to slow down, breathe, and be present.

Anyone else feel like the beach is the ultimate stress relief? 🩵🌴
