Ok I’m still awake from this morning. No stream Sunday; dealing with some built-ins still. Here are the girls in doggie jail while the builder was here.

Chemo round 2 was yesterday so no stream today while I keep an eye on things. Also having a much needed office built-in to work from home. Will be a loud morning.

Up all night again ☹️ apologies for no Sunday stream. Working on getting the family back to healthy status.

We’re all still up; MB had a rough day so I’ve been taking care of her. Skipping stream in the morning to get some sleep 😴

Best friends.

No stream today; taking care of my darling after her first round of chemo yesterday. Had a rough night and going to be a long day for sure. Everything went perfectly otherwise. Lots of nausea during the night so trying to control it.

Aw man I slept through my alarm! Too easy to snooze but accidentally turn it off. I guess no stream today because this is nice ❤️

Let me take a rain check on streaming today. Stomach is a bit upset and I still have some photos to go through from yesterday’s museum shoot. Here’s a particularly excited groundhog instead!

Got back in town Wednesday and still catching up on everything. Going to also catch up on some sleep today and be back to streaming Sunday 😊 The funeral was lovely and it was so nice visiting with family I don’t often get the chance to.

Getting ready to cook. Hairnet going to be working overtime.

Skipped streaming this monring for the amazing snow day! Was up before sunrise to grab a bunch of video and pics. We got just over 9 inches of snow. youtu.be/o5JZVKfcdok

Some wide aerial shots from this morning as the sun came up.

No stream this morning… SNOW DAY! Will be lit and about taking pictures. We got about 10 inches already. Going to get some drone footage and sunrise pics.

NC finally delivered some amazing snow after years of nothing!

Snow!

The ladies are loving the ice. Wasn’t half as bad as forecasted.

My refrigerator is fixed! Also outside is my new freezer. Going to be an icy day, and will probably lose power. Making some coffee and watching it roll in. No stream today while we spectate. Glad I already have eggs LOL.

Day 15 with no refrigerator. Hoping the repair guy gets here this morning before the winter storm. Staying cool, no stream, battening down the hatches.

Oh wow back to college already! No stream this morning, completely forgot. Going to be running around with breakfast and errands before sending my daughter’s fiancée back to school.

Back to the grind, but did have some free time over the holidays to write. Here's a new Illustrator tutorial for this voronoi-like non-destructive bubble effect: www.mattgyver.com/tutorials/20...

Last couple days of holiday break. Taking off from streaming Sat & Sun to pack up decorations and enjoy the last bit of down time this weekend!

Perfectly cozy. No notes.

A bit stressed with work stuff, not sure I can focus on streaming today. Going to get some sleep and have a little down time.

Reminder no stream Saturday! Doing some volunteer photography in the AM. Here are the ladies wearing a tree skirt.

You all see Illustrator added export options for AI, EPS, and even WebP? Making things easier on me when exporting client files. Except WebP—we have a love/hate thing going on right now.

Family still in town and doing the relaxing thing this long weekend. See you in December and get some rest (no stream today).

Time to decorate! No stream today while I make the family listen to All I Want for Christmas is You on repeat and we bake cookies and stuff.

Isabelle is having a ball here.

Alright I’m up and ready to stream but OBS is not playing nice. Let’s all just sleep in some more and call the weekend a wash. Putting on my tech hat and fixing things today it seems.

Hope everyone had a great Halloween! Trying to get back to normal in November. Got a bunch of greeting cards coming out soon, dying to play with new Adobe features, but need a rain check on stream today as we have a breakfast date with some friends to plan wedding stuff.
