birthday thankfulness


Hello everyone! I do apologize for my week's absence. I've been crazy busy doing a couple of corporate projects. Like today, I was in a think-tank meeting for 7 hours. The moment it ended, I called my friends. Today marks my 34th birthday. I would usually plan a fabulous party but because of work, I didn't think of anything. So, in one hour, we managed to book a table at a restaurant, got ready and made our way to dinner. I just came home. Completely happy and very thankful.

In keeping with the spirit of thankfulness, a picture of the woman who gave birth to me. I snapped this with a tripod just before I hopped into the shower. My mother, Yvonne.

I've not had much creative/artistic work this year but I'm extremely blessed to have a group of mad friends and equally mad mother that have kept me sane.

Cheers to us!

* I will post sporadically these next 2 weeks. corporate workload ends august 22nd. love always.
