How much more...
I know it’s been ages since a post, but I aim to come back to the blogging world even though my time spent here has been limited (two small kids sucks time away like no other!). Today was one of those days that makes you wonder how much more you can take. One thing after another, you always say it can’t get much worse…and then BAM. Not that things are really bad by any means,...

SO not prepared.
I stepped foot into my first daycare today to find somewhere to put the kids. Yes I went and got myself hired full-time, which I’m totally excited about! On the other hand, I don’t think I was mentally or emotionally ready for this. I feel this lump in my gut. How am I supposed to be sure my kids will be happy…well taken care of…safe. This place is probably by far one of...

WatchThis is the epitome of why I’m so much more productive working from home. I work late at night with no interruptions, when I’m most creative. Uninterrupted long stretches of time to work on a project are essential to great design and progression of a project. If only more workplaces in the US would think like this, maybe something great would get accomplished.
Amazing typography. →
As I comb a sea of resources for a little design inspiration, I came across this and was blown away.
The times shouldn't be a changin'.
Can we please end the Daylight Savings? I feel like a walking zombie today and this is the time where you gain an hour. How exactly can this make me more tired than I already was?
See picture to get my full feeling on the subject.
Enough on that depressing feeling…I finally got some work today! Just updating some work that had been in process. More text changes than anything, but at...

A link for all of my future clients. →
This is by far one of the best articles I have ever read regarding the Logo and branding process. I am guilty in the past for just doing what the clients wanted, not giving the knowledge and understanding of creating a brand. They just want it “quick” and want it to look the way they want it. I can put my inspiration into it, but not the time to develop the idea. For some reason,...
Fun filled weekend ahead.
Yeah that’s not true. Two sick kids. Lots of photo cropping and coding for the portfolio site. The husband probably spending most of the weekend under my car fixing the transmission. No fun. But at least we might be getting birthday party decorations and some holloween costumes as well as carving some pumpkins. It’s the first time ever with the kids so we’ll see how that turns...
St. Augustine or bust.
The past two days have been crazy emotional, stressful and pretty much pushed me to the point of crazy. The kids and I traveled to St. Augustine to visit my grandfather in the nursing home, who’s there because he has had a series of strokes over the past month or so. My mom was also in town so there was more incentive to drive over there! Unfortunately I didn’t get to spend more than...
To a new beginning.
A new portfolio website warrants keeping up with the jones’ (or the kardashians’ which is a better analogy for me) I believe so I feel a blog is in order. I’ll either be posting about a project, some inspiration or something insanely entertaining that my wild children have done. Please excuse any crazy rants on my part too that may appear. Sometimes being cooped up in this house...
