Pre/PostOp Gifts

Looking for something to tide you over when you'll be having cabin fever?

Make a checklist of things to have before you bunker down in your abode:

1.  A calendar to keep track of time - yes you can use the one on your phone, but what if there's a power outage or what if you need a little pick me up and learn through tactile senses? It only helps that you're staring at something motivational, like a zombie killing fighting machine in times of need :)

2. Cozy socks - Definitely helps that one of the coldest parts of the body, in my opinion, is comforted and it's definitely a plus if they're printed so that you don't fall into the cave-person-slump. Feel lively and energetic as you take care of yourself with these simple items.

 

 

3. A shawl/sweater/drapery of some sort - helps to just throw something around yourself in case you get chilly and if unexpected company stops by. Opt for something simple so that it will go with whatever gear you have underneath. I've been wearing mine day in and day out to give me the cozy feeling I need no matter what the temperature is outside. Also take into account the lightweight material. Choose something easy to carry and put on. The last thing you want is to feel like you're carrying 5 people on your back while doing squats... eeks.


Thanks to my thoughtful sisters, i've received some amazing and simple gifts for my recovery time.  Unfortunately, i'll be undergoing another surgery and hopefully it'll be my last. Two surgeries in 3 months time is a lot to handle and takes a lot of consideration. Crossing my fingers for a positive outcome and i'm fortunate to have these wonderful gifts to tide me over a second time. 





Statement Accessories to Bring the 'Mee' Out of You

As Spring looms with rain and stormy forecasts, it is also a reminder that Summer is coming. Through the rain and sun, eating and partying, here are my picks for accessories that will bring lift to your soul instead of weigh you down. Hopefully, they'll bring out our your own personalized style as they are easily interchangeable with whatever idea you come up with.



 These will stand the test of time and are great additions to any collection.  What adds that 'oomph' to your own life?  

 

    

From Winter to Spring : A Curators' Love

For some individuals, curating comes not just in the form of a hobby, but true and real passion. It's not just pressing all the "like" buttons out there to get attention, but actually investing a part of ourselves by saying, I accept this as a representation of what i'm trying to achieve. There is no right or wrong. Instead, curators showcase to the world what can be, could be, and perhaps will be. They take the best of the best based on their vision.

 

As Spring approaches, I am reminded that I need a new inspiration board to get me through this climate transition and another turmoil... surgery. It'll be my second surgery in 3 months and I absolutely am not looking forward to it. I need to keep myself going and absolutely have to make sure that I don't sacrifice a part of myself and most importantly, my sanity!!! Thus, my curative vision has currently encompassed some of my daily needs.

 

Qualifications:

1. Comfortable

2. Flats

3. Easy and interchangeable items of clothing

4. Effortless

5. Conveys relaxed yet upbeat mood
