Happy Weekend.

The days went slow, but the week went fast and I’m glad the weekend is right around the bend. This is my last one at home before heading off to Pennsylvania for the holidays and I’m going to have to move at full speed to get everything that needs accomplished done! As much as I complain about the craziness and busyness of the season it really is a special time of year. But during any of the other remaining eleven months it’s completely unacceptable!

This Weekend:
• finish last batch of cookies (orange-cranberry sugar cookies for you curious-types)
• ship boxes of gifts and cookies to PA
• ship gifts to L, A and K
• deliver baby shower gift to J
• laundry, laundry, LAUNDRY!
• “Christmas” with my mom and stepdad
• clean up around the house
• prep kitten-cat sitter

I’m getting sleepy just thinking about it…

Happy Weekend!

Ellis Gallagher.

“It began this spring without explanation: fire hydrants, street signs and bicycles all over Park Slope and Carroll Gardens in Brooklyn were suddenly standing watch over their own distorted chalk outlines, as if anticipating some violent demise. Whoever did this left no clue other than an ambiguous signature: “© Ellis G. 2007,” scrawled next to the chalk etchings.”

Ellis Gallagher (aka Ellis G.) started his art career as graffiti artist. After brushes with the law (including fines and nights spent behind bars) and the passing of a friend. It was then that Gallagher turned to temporary graffiti – tracing any and every shadow he came across. Check out the whole story here.
