Happy Friday to you there! This week I am grateful for the ideas that keep popping into my head and the enthusiasm that I greet them with. The next step is to turn them into something real. Sometimes my patience struggles to accept this part, but it's okay. I'm getting there little by little! I hope that your week has been full of some little discoveries, here's what I came across: I don't... Read more »

Angie and i met through a show that I worked on last year and she sewed up a storm for us. I was also interested to learn that she is the queen of the revamp and really passionate about inspiring women to up cycle their clothes.

Not enough self-care, mild exhaustion, focusing a little TOO much on what I don't have instead of what I do. I'd love to think I was killing it in all of these areas, but I'm sure that I'm not alone when it comes to slipping up sometimes and having to take a day to re-center and pull yourself together. For me, this week, that meant going to bed at 8:30 on Monday and a friend having... Read more »

Ideas are blossoming with almost no force at all. They're just floating into my mind space, ripe for the picking. After being so caught up in millions of thoughts, there is a calmness to these thoughts, like floating leaves. It must be autumn! That is definitely one thing I am grateful for this week.  What's going on in your life?... Read more »

Going to work and the usual monotony of being an adult can get a little dull…if you let it. My new focus is to enjoy the little things and go against everything 'being an adult' sometimes seems to represent. This is a snapshot of the past weekend: - On Thursday I took advantage of the...
