Before We Go…

The weekend is here. And I’m not ready yet. I have about 14 tabs open in two different browsers, trying to finish up work related tasks as well as personal ones before MJ gets home. It was a busy week. We spent our time outdoors, away from home, thus the list of things to finish today. I’m looking forward to the long weekend though I still can’t believe September begins tomorrow.

What are your plans for the holiday?

Links to check:

  • Have you ever heard of the Alt Summit (I’m going in January!!) or the Alt Channel, a place with lots of fun classes for the creative types? I just took a fabulous graphic design class last night with Laurie Smithwick of UpsideUp. It was just so good, I had to mention it.
  • This video made me cry. I couldn’t help it. I love music. via Design Mom
  • Football season is set to begin! And it’s not just for the players but the refs too. I liked this guy’s integrity and dedication to his job, albeit, a part-time gig.
  • This adoption story is all the better through the lens of this blogger. via Design Mom, she just shares the coolest articles

Things For Which I’m Thankful:

  • new space, new arrangements, the feeling of new-ness in a familiar place.
  • beach time, pool time, sunshine and friend time.
  • saying good-bye, to the college-bound and weary loved ones.

 

Have a safe and happy holiday.

Take care.
