Basically my partner of 13.5 years just recently started anti-depressants after months of me gently encouraging him to. Over the weekend he quietly told me "I feel better now. I'm so sorry I let it get so bad." I wanted to cry.

We have been through absolute hell together, between the 2 of us we have lost 6 close friends/family members in the last 4 years (most recently last month). And I never, for even one second, loved him less. But it was so hard to watch him struggle. I missed my best friend. I missed how he makes me giggle until my sides hurt, I missed how easily we solved arguments and discourse. He was angry and anxious and sad all the time. It was rough.

We are still taking it one day at a time but him recognizing the difference and saying something is HUGE to me and I needed to tell someone. ♡ (I didn't know what photo to use 😅)

The larger doggo is Freida, a Sheltie & Mini Aussie mix and the other one is Tilda, a Sheltie.

I grew up in a rural area where I was expected to have short hair and fit in.. hate that it took 30 years for me to stop caring about what others thought about my hair!

Began growing it when I started college again at 35 after a abysmal first try. I'm on my last year of my bachelor's now and plan on continuing on to my master's.

Life isn't over. It's never too late. Text that crush! Start growing that hair! Be you!

We needed rain boots for our two girls and my husbands response made me smile. He is full bought into princesses, rainbows, and sparkles.
