The Quickest Brand Identity Project I’ve Ever Completed

I designed the logo, website, and a social media theme TODAY in 8 hours. Now, I usually can't pull these types of miracles for my clients, so don't expect it! Also, fast doesn't always mean good, so be weary if someone will actually rush through such an important process. I had a lot of time … Continue reading The Quickest Brand Identity Project I’ve Ever Completed →

The Rainbow Bridge says that when we leave this world, the pets we loved greet us again. I hope Kristin found her sweet Fëanor waiting — young, bright, and running straight into her arms. 💛🌈 🐾 Lately 🍂 9 weeks of corporate travel since June, and probably one more to go before the year is up. Loving lazy days ☕️ 📺 🐱 🛋️ 5.5 miles in total today (split AM/PM). Long run tomorrow 🏃🏻‍♀️ Two sessions today Evening treadmill run Quick evening run on the treadmill After-work run…a little later than usual Upper body lifting class tonight after work 💼 Half marathon 66 at the @rundisney Halloween Half last weekend. 90% humidity at the start line 🥵 I went out a bit too hard at the beginning because I was trying to give myself enough of a lead ahead of the balloon ladies. By the time I got to California Adventure I felt pretty rough…wobbly in the legs, not quite seeing stars but pretty close. I kept a close eye on my electrolytes and slowed down a bit. Worst case scenario I could always call it early, but I really wanted to finish. Always a close call but I made it to the 7pm lift class 🤗 Pre-dinner run…on a weekday…while traveling for work. Small wins. Miles for hope. Tomorrow’s half supports @stillirun and @afspnational, and honors my mom’s memory. 💙 Every step is part of my fundraising to help prevent suicide and remind others they’re not alone. Finally made it to a strength training class after 3 missed classes 🏋🏻‍♀️ now I’ll miss 3 more until I’m back from my work trip and half marathon. I did order a yoga mat tonight. My gym has some not-hot-but-warm stretching classes on weekends that I hope to attend more often!
