Nubby Twiglet The Week In Pictures

Nubby Twiglet The Week In Pictures

How was your week? Mine was…full of organizing my taxes. Seriously exciting stuff! In between that, I also snuck in lots of walks with Rocky (yes, he’s wearing a holiday sweater! He doesn’t know any better!) and cleaning up my office (where do all these piles of stuff come from?!) It was actually pretty uneventful around these parts and hey, sometimes that’s a welcome change with so many projects and travel plans swirling for later this year.

Doing taxes and cleaning out my office are both such a drag but getting all my receipts in order and dusting off all my shelves did make me feel a whole lot better (only Virgos say that kind of thing, right?) I’ve also started working on some new projects for a few fashion clients and a stylist, all who I love so much — really feeling in my element design-wise right now, working with people I admire as fellow creatives.

I’ve been really enjoying working on a new mood board every weekend for In The Mood and it’s probably a dorky thing to be excited about but I love collaging and it reminds me of a series I did off and on for a few years, Fashion Notebook.

Early every Sunday, we take Rocky on a walk through a different neighborhood. He gets bored with the same old walk (and our neighborhood isn’t the greatest) so it’s nice to get out and explore. He gets super excited getting to ride in the car and Joey and I grab a coffee and spend an hour wandering through new scenery. Over the weekend, we walked near Stumptown on Division — I love the flower selection at their cute little store next door.

Speaking of coffee, I stopped in Cellar Door and though I’ve been there dozens of times, only now just noticed their awesome receipt sign-off. Haha!

Well, I’m off to finish up those pesky taxes (it’s always a roll of the dice with how it’s all going to go down). Also, if you’re in LA, Joey is having a solo show tonight at 7 PM at Lethal Amounts Gallery on 1226 W. 7th St. He worked really hard on getting this show together and I’m so proud of him. Have a great weekend, everyone! Hopefully not filled with doing your taxes…

    I really like how considerate you are of Rocky’s feelings, and desire to see new places. It’s so adorable, and makes you both discover pretty cool neighbourhoods. P.S. That sign off for Cellar Door is awesome. I really wish I was into drinking coffee, because I’d be all over hunting down quirky places for a cup of jo’!

      Chantelle: Having Rocky totally changed my life — he’s like my little baby even though he’s six now. For such a little creature, he has a huge personality and is super smart. I know everyone says the same things about their pets (and kids!) but he’s really the best.

    I’m a Cancer, and I know the feeling of getting icky dust off my counter. I had a cleaning day at work last week, and felt so nice to get clutter off my desk and guess what! It’s all piled up again with things to sort through and get ready to send to Advertising Co-op. UGH! That’s the life right!

    Also, I just did a major organizing and cleaning overhaul of my bathroom (after sharing it with a brother AND a sister AND her husband all at once), and it FEELS so much better! So I may have a moon in Virgo or something, cause I have to be organized too!

    I envy your NESTs. I used to have the collection in its entirety, but when I came to Portland, dire times forced me to rid myself of beloved belongings. My collection of the now-defunct quarterly is something I deeply regret letting go of, as well as my record collection. *mourns*

      anunfortunatefate: Ah, darn! I never even had them all…it’s one of those magazines I’ll never get over shutting down. Nothing since has had that sense of creativity. And records too? Ouch! I’ve held onto two crates through many moves, can’t bear to ever let them go.

    Good luck!!I am right there with ya – I am doing my first GTD Inbox organization blitz plus doing my taxes this weekend, too. I think everything got super cluttered BECAUSE I didn’t want to do my taxes yet :P

    So, here’s hoping for a relaxed return to orderliness :) I just love a clean desk with all my big “to-dos”, done :)
