Dreams and Realities – Installment No. 3

It’s been a while since we’ve done a dreamer’s post. Let’s catch up shall we?

  • Take some personal time for myself to just relax
  • Enjoy the holidays with my closest friends and family
  • Renovate our backyard
  • Have a design studio in the back of our house

  • Taking some personal time for myself is hard, but isn’t at the same time. I know, doesn’t make sense. I’ve had to take personal time in spurts instead of taking a whole day off which I thought could work for me. But it can’t. Not having a day off to rest and recharge is hard. So I’ve got to find some balance in my schedule and really give myself a day off. 2013 – I’m looking at you!
  • I always love this time of year. Always. But this year has a little bit of lack luster for me. I guess just missing Ray and my grandpa makes it hard, though I’m still trying to make the most of it and be thankful to have another Christmas to celebrate with my loved ones. But arrgh, honestly! Screw trying to be pleasant. This is the realities section right? Cancer SUCKS, death SUCKS – I hate it all. I hate that I have to just rekindle memories of them both in my head. I hate that I can’t call them whenever I want to talk. I hate that both of them had to suffer and fight for their lives. 2 people that are most deserving of life are fighting for it?! I just don’t see how that makes any sense. Ok, rant over. I guess there are just somethings that I will never understand or be able to wrap my head around. I’m just praying to the Lord for guidance and peace. Sorry for the awkward  and random slew of negativity. Onward we go..
  • So Charlie is beginning to renovate our backyard! OMG I’m so excited about this. We’ve been saving and trying to do this ever since we moved to our house almost 2 years ago. More on that later 🙂
  • Charlie also proposed building a design studio/office for me in the back of our house. I figure hey why not! I’ve always dreamed of my company having an office and I’ve always wanted to work from home so that would be perfect!

Unique LA Recap

Last weekend, we were fortunate enough to be a vendor at Unique LA 5th Annual Holiday Show. There were tons of great vendors selling great products. It was 2 days worth of madness and fun, Charlie and I were actually sad when it was all over (despite how exhausted we were). I didn’t know what to expect, especially it was our first time showing our products there. But we did better than I ever thought we would AND got great feedback as well. I’m so excited for what’s to come next year!

Here are a few pictures from our booth.

 

Say hello to our friendly and talented neighbors:

We definitely intend to show at Unique again, can’t wait for the next one! Here’s our full gallery of photos from the event. There were tons of eye candy, especially those desserts. YUMMM. Enjoy!
