My Artistic Sister

Guest post written by my buddy Aldo Mays

My sister recently decided to open an art gallery in downtown Atlanta. She’s been a “starving artist” since she graduated from college and my parents were less than thrilled when she told them the profession she chose after studying social work for five years at UGA. It took her four years to channel her talent onto the canvas, and I have to admit, she is very talented. She decided to open the gallery after a friend of hers in real estate found her a great deal on a beautiful brick building. She spent months prepping the building and even had an alarm system installed for a decent price that she found on ALLHOMEsecurity.com. She had beautiful lighting and hardwood floors installed, and she’ll be displaying her canvases as well as some pottery made by another local artist. Her opening night for the gallery is on Friday, and our entire family will be there to support her. It took my parents a few years to admit it, but they couldn’t be prouder of my sister’s success.

Guest post of the week by Deangelo Spencer

I logged onto www.texaselectricityproviders.com and switched our energy provider to a company where I would save more money each month. With the money that I am saving each month, I have decided that I will sign up for a pilates class. All of my friends have been raving about pilates and how strengthening it is. One of my friends is going to school to be a pilates instructor and has gotten so tone so quickly that it makes me think that I need to hope on this work out train. Now, that I have the extra money, I don’t see a reason why I shouldn’t. Afterall, my best friend is getting married next year and I don’t want to be the totally out of shape bridesmaid. I can just imagine myself looking lean and tone in the cute bridesmaid dresses that she picked out. Maybe I can meet a cute single guy at the wedding! That would be a great story, meeting your future husband at a wedding. I can just see myself telling my kids that now.
