It doesn't feel like fall

September in Arizona: When you desperately try to make it feel like fall, even though it's still 105* at 9pm.

So, I painted this to get in the spirit of autumn.

Acrylic on 12x12 canvas

Just my journals

Not really art, but here are the covers of my journals. :)

Front cover from freshman year through junior year

Front and back cover from the middle of junior year to the middle of senior year

Front and back cover of my journal from the middle of senior year til now!

I have collages on all of the inside covers too... but those are a little more personal :)

Do I really need to title these?

GLEE! Gotta love it.

I've been picking up a bunch of shifts for MillerCoors - which is great!  Good money.  But what I really need is a 9-5.  I haven't been trying as hard as I should, probably due to the fact that I'm still finishing up articles from my internship from home.  Once that's through I can FULLY concentrate on the job search.

Newest work in progress

Inspired by Jefferson Airplane/Grace Slick

Oops!

It's been nearly a month!  Yikes!

Well, I updated all the links to my online articles... so you can check those out if you'd like!

Also, here is a link to one of my articles that was published through Phoenix Woman Magazine (online).  You'll notice it's not my name on the by line... yeah... But it is my article.

I had dinner tonight with Kieren and Kelly (it's Kieren's 22nd tomorrow!) to celebrate Kieren's birthday, and new job, and hear about how ADPi's recruitment went.  It was AWESOME!  We got to catch up and laugh - not much more I could ask for.

I've been proactively updating my LinkedIn... but it's still not what it should be - anyone have any suggestions on it?

Toni got moved into the dorms at SUNY on Tuesday, her room looks adorable!

And here's a little bit of Pittsfield...

:)

Just some random notes...

I finished this painting.  Yay!

Mom told me the story about Quentin the quail this week, how did I not know this one yet?

I'm entirely excited for Dad going to Costa Rica, and jealous.  I should go along and be his translator, don't you think?

Work is continuing along well!

I'm excited for Thursday family dinner, yay birthdays!

I'm hoping that by this weekend this cold/flu thing is gone... because the surprise party and moving the rest of all of my things from Tucson to Phoenix is going to take some energy!!
