Celebrating the small magic stuff today : a repeat performance from my awesome hair stylist.

My San Diego days are numbered. I am currently gearing up for my workshop this coming weekend and then I'll be prepping the apartment for the movers. And then it will be Thanksgiving. And then I'll be settled into my new place.

November is not promising calmness, like I had hoped it would. But it is rushing by & filled with exciting stuff, so I cannot complain. I anticipate posting will be light over the next few weeks. It's hilarious : just recently, I was so confident about my consistent blogging that I was thought to myself "hmm, it might be time to bring blog sponsors back." And then just like that, everything is turned on it's head and I don't have a single thought to put up on this space.

I am grateful that I have the opportunity to step back and then jump in again when the ideas are flowing.

Thanks for your patience.

    I was wondering if you are going to re-paint the striped wall or does the owner like it this way….

    Hi Elise, sending you good vibes during this busy time. I hope that in the midst of everything, you find the occasional quiet moment. And if things are super nuts, hang in there and enjoy the buzz. All the best, Heidi from Winnipeg

    Glad to hear that you’re keeping busy while the hubby is away. Makes time go by so much faster! Excited for you guys to be moving into a new place, but I know how hard it is to leave SD. I miss it soooo much!
    And cute hair. You totally pull off the short style 🙂

    Good luck this weekend! I wish I could take the class, but flights from Ohio to Cali are super expensive! 🙂
    An idea for a blog post: I would love to hear your thoughts and tips on staying close to friends who live far away. You seem to still have such great relationships with your friends, even if they are not in the same city. Any tips? Advice?
    Thanks Elise!

    How does blog sponsorship work, Elise? I’ve been thinking about enabling AdSense for blogger on my blog, but have no idea how the process works and am too intimidated to try it. How did you get started with sponsorship?

    hey 🙂 – this would just be requesting sponsorships from my current readers, that is what I have done in the past. I do not use adsense.

    Hi Elise!
    It’s my first comment on your blog (yay!) though I’ve been following for a while now – love it! I live in San Diego, and have had the hardest time finding a hair stylist I like. Your style is adorable – where do you go? I searched your archives but couldn’t find any leads.
    On another note, I wish I could attend your workshop in the bay. Any chance you’ll do something local in SD before you leave?
    Have a lovely afternoon & all the best,
    Sara

    Too bad about having to paint over your great stripes, but understandable.
    Hope this month is good for you. Wishing you all the best as you get ready for your move!
