Now the natural question here is...has the wife come around? When I declared my desire for a "summer goth cruise witch" aesthetic I'm happy to report my husband was all for it lol.

Oh absolutely she has, it's just all about trying to keep my inner child in check before I do something silly. She's the matriarch of a house of boys so she generally takes a stance against silliness whereas I'm usually for it.

While she may make disparaging comments when I'm sat watching TV and doing my nails, she's also said "I think you look really fit in that picture" about pictures where I'm in full blown Festival garb with my long hair (which she was against me growing) flowing down my back.

In fact, it's got her going through her own clothes and starting to wear some stuff she usually wouldn't too. I think she saw that I didn't get my head kicked in like we did when we were kids and thought "huh"

Yay this makes me happy to hear! Life's too short to not wear your hair long...or something 😄
