Mad Dog

One of my favorite new friends these days is Stephanie Stuart. She comes complete with an awesome husband and a darling 16mo. old. Steph and I started working together right after I moved from Seattle back to UT. We toiled through the crappy work days at 3form, day in and day out. But now we both work as interior designers together. On Friday Steph went into labor and I was their "#1" to take care of Madison. I'd been looking forward to this for like 2 months and had it all planned out. I picked up Mad Dog from daycare and we went home and decorated the house for baby brothers arrival AND (this was what I was most excited about) we mad the baby a "painting" to welcome him home from his big sister. Thank you Kacey for the idea! Judging from this video it was a success.

smart phone


I am one who makes lists. Lots of them, everywhere on any scrap of paper I can find... a business card, receipt or gum wrapper. I'm not too proud to admit that this steel trap of a mind sometimes just doesn't quite get all the details. And today was no different.

I totally double booked myself for two events that are both highlights of my month/season. I spearheaded hosting a what we call a 'favorites' party and because this elephant brain actually did forget something, I scheduled the party on the same night as bunko! :( No bueno!

So. That settles it. I NEEEED my iPhone back. I need a quick accessible calendar with me at all times who's alarm actually goes of when it's set (hint hint Samsung Gravity 3). Birthdays will be remembered, parties and lists will all be made in one perfect little hand held bit of wireless love. I'm half tempted to put my original iPhone back to work.
