(Ed. Note. Couldn’t think of a title for this post.)

I’ve been extremely busy working this week (both on school work and on ABM sites) and haven’t had a change to write anything on my site recently.  But right now Katie is taking her Praxis exam (which she is going to dominate!) and I’m back at her apartment listening to her roommate jam on the guitar and doing some web design work and some school work.  On the web design front, I’m finishing up two sites, one for District Dating Coach which is basically completed and live, just waiting on some final changes from DDC’s owner Joan, and finishing up Be Beautiful, which is a beauty and wellness company based out of Boston, Mass.

Be Beautiful was a tough site in the fact that I completed a site for them, then afterwards we agreed that it wasn’t my best work, so I’ve come up with a new alternative design.  I did a lot of research on Web Designer Depot about their Do’s and Don’ts of Dark Web Design.  I combined some of their findings with my first foray into custom fields in Wordpress and came up with what I feel is a great design.  I’ll post it on here when it’s 100% complete and launched.

I’m also working on the website for the Winchester Education Foundation, which should be live and up before too long.  I came up with one design for that but am tinkering with it, based off of some CSS Typography tips and examples from 3point7Designs.com.  Typography is such a detail oriented and deep field that so many of us just brush over.  High quality typography really makes the website.  Might look into a typography book on Amazon… anyone got any suggestions?

I’ve also got a new idea for a business that you may see roll out here soon. I’ll keep you posted.

But for now, it’s off to pick up Katie, grab some lunch and head to Winchester!  Might be going to Charles Town Races tonight to bet on the ponys.  Last time we won $172.50 on a $1 bet; hope the luck is with us tonight as it was NOT with the Caps last night.
