251 PT

Started back up with physical therapy... This time for my back. It's just not been the same since my long flight back from Hawaii so I decided it's time to figure out how to make it feel better. And I have a fabulous PT! Feeling better tonight already!!

blogs and social media

I ran across Trent's thoughts on blogging and social networks and completely agree.  I just had to share his analogies.

Ideas of March | Trent Walton: Places on the web for sharing content and ideas often remind me of real life interactions. Facebook is the everlasting high school reunion. Twitter, which I love, is maybe half cocktail party, half party-line. Flickr & Instagram can be the best way to send a postcard, while LinkedIn is the best way to send a fax ;) To me, there’s something sacred about reading a blog post on someone else’s site. It’s like visiting a friend’s house for a quick meal ‘round the breakfast table. It’s personal— you’re in their space, and the environment is uniquely suited for idea exchange and uninterrupted conversation. In many ways, we should be treating our blogs like our breakfast tables. Be welcoming & gracious when you host, and kind & respectful when visiting.

253 super sunday

Spent the morning with my friend Robin.  We have been planning this 
outing for almost two months now, so it was good to finally get it on the 
books and make it happen!!  We had brunch at the tapas place, Cafe 
Ba Ba Reeba - the cinnamon french toast was spectacular.  But, in true 
tapas fashion, it was a single piece of french toast - I could have eaten 
three!!  


We headed around the corner to make custom 1154 lill bags.  This was 
the first time I've actually done this, Robin has like ten of these bags.  
It's fun, you pick the bag shape and then all of the fabrics.  I chose two 
bags { I just couldn't choose } the Lexie in navy and steel gray and the 
Sophie in two black fabrics with the accents in red.  Luckily I had a 
Living Social coupon and the Lexie was on sale!  Woot!  


One last mission for the afternoon was to ride the Navy Pier ferris wheel.  I purchased a groupon for
tickets and it's up this coming Friday.  Ridiculous I left it till the very last minute, but whatever!  Sadly, the 
wheel was not running because it was hella windy, so I guess I will have to try to make it down some 
night this week.  Boo! 


On a completely unrelated note ... I was thumbing through my mountain of magazines and Martha Stewart 
inspired me to whip up some homemade pasta.  Put my Kitchen Aid attachment to work and it was SO 
much better than that crank machine!  Oh it was so good!!! 'Twas a super Sunday!  Hope yours was too!

Had a positively lovely Saturday!  Woke up to the sun streaming in and just lounged around catching up on some DVR in bed.  I love it when I don't have early morning plans!!  Once I got myself up and going, I finished two photobooks - a groupon I had purchased that actually expired (oops!) and they gave me two more weeks (yeah!) to complete my books.


Then it was off to the resale shop to donate FOUR bags of clothes that have been piling up forever.  I keep thinking I'll take them to a consignment shop to get a few bucks out of them, but never seem to make it there.  So, today, I decided to part with them once and for all.  It actually felt good.  

Last up I headed downtown for the earlybird dinner at Quartino's with the Pittman crew.  Dinner was delish as was the company.  We had to eat before Bella's last chess game of the day, which she won!  Way to go B!!  I walked back to the car so that I could snap a few city pics.  Enjoy! 





Sloane was cracking me up making funny zerbert sounds - she's such a happy baby!

TGIF!!! It's been a long week and I cannot tell you how happy I am that the weekend has arrived. Sadly, the weather is not cooperating. It's so cold it feels like Fall. Look! I'm still in a turtleneck! That's unacceptable in April, don't you think?

things that make you go hmmm

So I have never googled any of my images to see if they are floating about on the internet till tonight.  I had an online news source ask if they could use my image of the NCAA trophy and had granted them permission - they gave me a credit and all was good.  I had forgotten the name so I went looking for that image on google.  To my surprise I found it all over the web!!  Like four pages of google entries and one even has it as the cover image of their facebook profile ... Isn't that nice.  Bunch of thieves ... sadly I don't think there's a thing I can do about it.


I am thinking it's best I just don't google any more of my photos ... may not like what I find.

I'm how many days into this 365 day challenge and I am finding that my life is just not that photogenic.  I mean, sometimes I do amazing, super fun, photo inspiring things.  But when you look at the day-to-day, not so much.

I am a graphic designer.  I sit in front of a computer all day, every day.  I am finding it difficult to find the "beauty" in this ... so back to the beach I went today.  The sky was stunning - somewhat angry, but the blue from the sky to the water created the most beautiful gradient effect.  { love }
