Sleeping In

Camilla Engman's dog, Morran, as he sleeps in.

I'm sick as a dog. Today is Day 3 of my "quarantine." Wednesday morning I went to the doctor because I felt horrible and thought I could have the flu. Don't worry, though. They cleared me from having to get swabbed for the Swine Flu aka H1N1. Although I was told that I have to stay indoors for five days and if I absolutely have to go outside my little bedroom I must wear a mask. So, the farthest I've ventured is the the bathroom which is like 30 feet from my bed. The worst part about being sick and stuck indoors is that I don't even have the energy to do anything. Today is the first day that I actually feel like reading let alone writing a blog post. Hopefully that's a good sign that I'm getting better! :)

Inspiration: Beth Armsheimer

Oh. My. God. I am at a loss for words. No, that's not true. Several come to mind - Stunning, Amazing, WOW, Talented. I think I'll show you what I mean. Here are the awesome photos by Beth Armsheimer I stumbled across today.



I'm planning my wedding which is set for Spring '10 and looking at these images from the wedding of Leigh and Andy that Beth shot I'm so jealous. This is exactly the kind of photography style I want for mine - different, fun and totally unique.

Right now, I'm totally picturing me and mr. shopangelica in these pictures. I'll say it again - Amazing!

Happy Friday: A Gnome Hut

Hello, lovely readers! I'm so happy today is Friday. Doesn't this cute little gnome make you smile? I'm in such a good mood probably because it's the beginning to a great weekend. I thought I'd share him with you and I hope he brightens your day!

Happy Easter

If you celebrate Easter...I hope that you had fun egg hunting and eating chocolate bunnies. And if Easter is not part of your heritage or religious tradition, I hope your weekend was great! Here in Charlotte, the weather was gorgeous! I know a lot of people are off today for Easter Monday - not me. But that's okay. I had a great time and enjoyed my long weekend nonetheless.

Hello Monday!

{hello memo}

I hope everyone had a great weekend! It's Monday and that means back to work for me. I spent the last few days relaxing and spending time with girlfriends. No posting, tweeting or work of any kind was done. But sometimes it's good to step away for a bit. I think it worked wonders to break the creative block I was up against.
