Pittsburgh, PA

Monday Mailings

Monday Mailings

Happy Monday, all! I'm feeling really good about this week, and I hope I can spread some of that positivity to you. Last week, I took a trip to Pittsburgh, and while I was there I got to write letters in Bonnie Jeanne's (aka Post Muse) house. Between that and the car...

5 Ways To Live Eccentrically

5 Ways To Live Eccentrically

Sometimes we describe people as "eccentric" when we don't know what else to say. Even if you're calling me "eccentric" to mask the fact that you think I'm crazy, I take it as a compliment. I would much rather be thought of as strange or indescribable than something...

20 Things To Do Before Summer Ends

Lately, I've been hearing a lot of people say things about summer being over. Guess what, though? It's not! Just because the kids go back to school doesn't mean we can't have a picnic or jump on a trampoline. In the US, Autumn doesn't start until September 22nd. If...

A Statue Gets A Scarf

A Statue Gets A Scarf

One of the best parts of street art is interacting with your environment. I really admire artists who are inspired by what already exists and add their own spin to it. It's not as easy for me to do, so I get excited when I can make a statue a little more fancy....

Celebrate September!

Celebrate September!

On the first day of every month, I compile a list of my Top Ten Things about the previous month. I also ask for my friends' lists, and it's wonderful to read them. Reflecting on your life in a positive way is an extremely good skill to have, and if you can't do it...
