It’s Fall and I’m loving it. The air is cooler and it’s almost sweater weather. Football is getting ready to start and the U.S. Open is being played. All the things that I love.

In this blog post, I’m going to talk about the first three. Please stay tuned for Part 2 coming up soon.

20 Things Giving Me Life Right Now – End of Summer Edition
Here we are again at the end of the month and it’s also the end of the Summer season. I always like to wrap up the month with a list of all the things that had my mind blown.

Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
