Happy Birthday Harriet!

Seems like time goes so fast and I can't believe you are 15 years old now- only 1 year away from driving! Thinking of how much you have grown up in the last few years is crazy-you have such a wonderful heart. You always make me feel welcome and missed when I come home- greeting me with your kisses and hugs and sometimes annoying me by following me around the house!! You do have a habit of following when you are bored! :o)(we can all relate) I admire your spirit and joyfulness that you find in everything. You can always say something good about someone and LAUGH at a situation. Sometimes laughing TOO LONG and obnoxiously-at times. :o) One of the things I will always keep with me that I love about you is your notes. You are a note girl for sure! Whenever you have the excuse to write a note- whether it is to apologize, ask, or just because. You have always been a writer- Harriet! If I recall correctly, I think I have caught you several times spying on me and writing my phone conversations in your lil book! :o) You have always had a gift for writing. You are such a beautiful person -inside and out- from your green hazel sparkling eyes to your pure caring heart. I love you baby girl and I'm proud of you!

Wordless Wednesday: happy!

Too much on my mind...

For the last few weeks I have had soo many projects due... And I am so burned out! I have absolutely NO motivation for school work right now and I want to be DONE! All I can think about is being on the beach FAR far away from thinking of school. (Right now I should be doing homework-yet here I am personalizing my thoughts into a customized picture for my BLOG!) Although I really enjoy my major and the artsy part of it- It is a LOT of work. Today as I was looking over my schedule and my last 3 1/2 weeks of for the semester, I really only have a few things to focus on ( for real)...a test, a Final Essay (4 pages), a light design, and last but not least a Luxury Condo. I'm designing a luxury Condo located in Chicago for a couple, with NO budget. I am really excited to do this project but I dont know where to go with it. I have tooo many things to do- aside the floor plan, concept, materials, colors, furniture, etc. - I have approximately 60 hours of Auto Cad to do (architectural rendering program). I also have to incorporate hight end design and furniture... very Luxurious! I really haven't been in the "design" mood lately and haven't really got a head start on this project and here I am 3 weeks to go and still I feel like I have nothing. I feel behind and stressed because everyone around me is about 3 steps ahead of me. Anyways- typing all this makes me think i should probably start doing something. so here i go- wish me luck and let me know if you have any ideas! ha - they'd be Greatly appreciated!!

Love at first sight!!

love love love, One of my favorite line-Designer Guild- just came out with a new line which I am TOTALLY in LoVE with. I think I might marry it!

Spring Fever!
