A Nerd Mom's Life

Cuddling with Marmalade while watching Doctor Who. Anxiously awaiting the arrival of #doctorwho #davidtennant #rosetyler #tenismydoctor https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs4Be6jnuJx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hjbndb4l83nh

My new favorite wine from Purple Toad Winery, "Hannah's Black Honey". I think I like it even more than the "Black and Bruised". #saturdaynight #winenight #tryitout #purpletoadwinery #purpletoes https://www.instagram.com/p/BsjJX9pFGeb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11to4p7vvbm1o

Contemplation. Don't you just hate it when a word is on the tip of your tongue and you can't figure out how to move your story to the next chapter. #writersblock #storytime #buddingauthor https://www.instagram.com/p/BsMHw2wlyVb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jwtdnjtba650

Post-workout selfie. Quick run followed by a bit of yoga. Feeling pretty good, but tired. https://www.instagram.com/p/BsJspxrlWNr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6arbqjriad7y

My eyes are my favorite feature. Share a pic or tell me what your favorite thing about yourself is! https://www.instagram.com/p/Br_PfoallAl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8wtb0pi8o3mo

As women, we're raised in this society to pick apart our appearance. So critically: My skintone is uneven. I have freckles that aren't cute like the ones people like to fake. I have huge bags under my eyes. My eyebrows might as well not even exist. My schnoze is enormous. But also: My uneven skintone is relatively clear of blemishes. My freckles show that I like to work in the sun. The bags under my eyes show that I sacrifice sleep for other, more important things. I rarely have to groom my eyebrows. And my nose might be huge, but it scoops up at the tip which I think is super cute. I know more than anyone what my own flaws are. But I don't care! I own my flaws and rurn them into something I like about myself. You should to! What are some of your flaws? https://www.instagram.com/p/Br8qYsBFZZu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=192vs1e5h7nnn

Bedtime rituals. I'm reading A Seperate Peace by John Knowles. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for something classic to read. #hygge https://www.instagram.com/p/Br6RPHUlEt-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=d9sf4n7ic0ay

Catching some rays in the afternoon sun. It's much to cold to go outside, but I can sun soak from inside my bedroom! https://www.instagram.com/p/Br3kPiYFGnR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jzbq6l4sqemu

Pre-bedtime selfie. Feeling kinda pretty despite being a bit down lately. I have a lot of wonderful things going for myself right now just gotta keep on truckin'. https://www.instagram.com/p/Br1OZbGFyAV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1uul2rdseth2g
