2 so... whaddya think?

Did you get a chance to watch Design Wars on Friday? What did you think?? I was overwhelmed by all the tweets, texts, facebook shoutouts and phone calls. Thank you so much!! I thought the show turned out pretty great considering all. I hope that you enjoyed it!




As usual for me, I had some technical difficulties on Friday so I wasn't able to record the show using my DVR. At the last minute my Dad and I rigged up his phone to a tripod and actually filmed my screen just to have a recording of it! These screenshots are from the video I pieced together from his camera phone, but luckily a friend has an HD quality recording that I'll be able to get some shots from soon!

If you missed the episode, I'm not sure when it will rerun, but I'll be sure to let you know when I do!

I don't speak a lot about my faith here on the blog, but today I have to say that I'm feeling especially Favored. I don't believe in luck, nor do I believe that you gain success or advantages in life via hours and hours of hard work. Although anyone that knows me will tell you that I work VERY hard, I also make lots of mistakes along the way. Working hard can be the opposite of working smart, when you're busy being busy. What I know for sure is that a higher power than myself guides my steps and fills in when I'm not enough to be my best.

It may seem like I'm speaking randomly, but today as my episode of Design Wars airs on HGTV, the course of miracles that's led me to where I am today is blindingly apparent. When you watch me on TV today, just know that as I was filming this show last year, my personal life was pretty much a complete mess. As the makeup artist on set was touching up my face for the cameras, I didn't even know where I'd be living at the end of that month....

Appearing on this show was a pivotal moment for me for many reasons, and most importantly a reinforcement in my faith that as long as I keep doing my best, He'll fill in the rest. :) The Jill Scott song I posted above captures EXACTLY how I'm feeling; BLESSED.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who has shouted me out over the last week, and PLEASE, let me know what you think about the show after you see it!
