It's that time again... daily time! I'm super excited to welcome the ever-so-talented Jen Renninger to the spotlight today. You know who she is; she graced Design for Mankind last fall with her crazy-awesome Eames paintings, and I'm so pleased to have her back on the site! Welcome, dear Jen, and thanks for sharing your inspiring day [and dog!] with us! :)
5:30 AM We wake up to the glowing alarm clock...
6:10 after coffee and breakfast for everyone else (Bill and our pets.. no time for pictures!!) I finally get out my bowl. Actually it's a bowl I bought for Bill off of Etsy.. it says " I love you more than zombies love brains" ! How could you not LOVE that??
6:30 Driving to the gym.. still fairly dark and cloudy.
On the way home from the gym. Nicer. Brighter!
7:30 Finally! Barley gets to go for a walk. this is SO EXCITING!
Look at this color! The nice thing about doing this 'images from the day' is that it reminds you to look around at whats there.
Oranges! I LOVE this time of year!!!
I love how this branch looks like a tethered bird...
Such freshness! New budding flowers...
Someone left some love on the sidewalk.
8:45 Finally into the office. Time to get to work for a while. This is where I spend most of my day.. I paint and draw and work at the computer here. This morning I have one project to work on and then I have to run out to shop and do some research..
11AM Met my Mom at Target for some shopping. Look what we found! Cool little animals.
Noon: I run out to take a picture of this place. Everyone needs a little something beautiful.
12:30 Back into the office with another phrase greeting me. Keep calm and carry on!
I received a business card that had this on the back. How wonderful is that?
2pm I start playing with shooting my drawings instead of scanning them. The next few images are some of my experiments...
5PM Leah from More ways to waste time asked for pictures of our home, so I set about doing that..
Barley is done with work.
7:30 Dinner time! We ate at our coffee table.. watching TV. Not terribly glamourous, but very cozy!
10:30 PM Bed time!

I know I say this all the time, but I really do love the dailies! oh and the business card with "make someone smile" is awesome!
what an awesome account of a day. the photos are wonderful...the glowing alarm and the "sidewalk love" are my favorite.
I want to be a dailie when I grow up!! I love Jen's work so this was a great read (and I love the 'Something Beautiful' shot).
Ha... I know--- I love getting a tour of someone else's day--- it's a nice, vicarious change of the mundane! :)
I love the way you have the Keep Calm poster framed! I have been wanting the blue one, but will not let myself by it until I have found a frame for it.
I just love the dailies too! Love seeing how someone so talented like Jen manages to balance creativity, takin' care of business, and taking care of herself. Very inspirational - just plain great!!
what a great idea for business cards! kind of makes you want to do business with somebody whose motto is so positive!
HI Everyone!! This was such FUN! I have to hand it to Erin.. {Thaqnks Erin!!} this is such a great idea. I feel really honored to have been a part of it!
By the way, thanks for all the nice comments. Someone mentioned the Something Beautiful picture.. that is a few miles from my house.. every time I drive by it my heart jumps a little that it's still there. I just love it that some one would allow 'something beautiful' to just hang out there all alone like that!
Thank YOU, dear Jen! :)
i love love love the eames chair; subtle and very sweet.
i love your house :)
