Thank you!

Today's Agenda:  Getting ready for a fun week ahead -- it's office installation time!  Most of my friends and family know that I can't get enough of a good home office project -- all the organizing of wires, finding awesome lamps for the desk, having everything at your fingertips -- so looking forward to this week!!!  I think this project will turn out pretty great -- it's a classic Brooklyn apartment with vintage touches.  We aren't doing anything too extreme (no new paint or wallpaper), but I think it's going to pull together so nicely and make the space so much more usable. 

I am so thankful for this opportunity, as I am with all of the opportunities that I have had in this career and my career as a lawyer.  I am amazed at the many interesting, impressive people I have had the chance to meet in my life and am thankful for every day I get to work on developing my career as a designer.  Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays because it really is a time to just hang out, eat good food and be thankful for everyone in your life.  Sure, there are lots of annoying things going on in life that sometimes add up to way too much but for a few days those annoying bits pretty much melt away.  We had a fun Thanksgiving -- filled with days of family and friends and great food!  Here are a few highlights captured on film (and photos of the tablesetting I blogged about on Wednesday put together!):
