Happy Friday. It’s an 11/10 day today on the island and we decided to take the day off to spend with Marin. It’s been a pretty rough few weeks between Covid, recovery and other stuff going on so we’re long overdue for some fun. We’re going strawberry picking and then headed to the beach. Looking forward to some quality time offline. Have a great weekend.

I haven’t worn makeup since a bad case of dermatitis on my eyelids in 2017. Now, I don’t like how I look or how my skin feels with makeup on. Highly suggest ditching it altogether. Put on sunscreen and greet the day, people!
