this looks so cosy! love your 2018 intentions, mine are very similar! self care is def up there, I’ve come to the conclusion that I can’t do everything. so far i’ve taken time in the morning to wake up early, work out or do yoga, drink more water, set aside days for projects that involve my husband and puppy (woodwork ha an dog trainig) 2018 is gonna be a good year!

Thank you so much!!! Self care definitely seems to always put on the back-burner! Good for you for getting up early! I am such a night owl and not a morning person at all, wish I could get up early!!?
